Collagen-Induction Therapy for Smoother, Firmer Skin

Have you noticed your skin losing its youthful vitality? Do lines, wrinkles or rough texture make you feel older than your years? Maybe acne scars or sun spots make you want to hide your skin instead of show it off.

We get it. The passage of time, genetics, and environmental stressors can take a toll on our skin. When those effects start to chip away at our self-esteem, it’s time to take action.

At BonneVie MD Aesthetics, we are committed to helping you achieve your aesthetic goals and rediscover your beauty, inside and out in Worthington, OH. 

We provide individualized solutions utilizing advanced technologies like Morpheus8, an innovative anti-aging treatment that remodels skin by combining microneedling and radiofrequency energy to smooth wrinkles, tighten laxity, even tone, and restore a radiant, youthful complexion.

What is Morpheus8 and How Does it Work?

Morpheus8 is a cutting-edge fractional skin treatment technology that delivers radiofrequency energy to the deeper layers of the skin through microneedling. This stimulates collagen production and skin remodeling from within for dramatic anti-aging effects.

Tiny gold-coated microneedles penetrate deep into the skin, creating controlled micro-injuries. These micro-wounds signal your body’s natural healing response to generate new collagen and elastin. At the same time, radiofrequency energy is delivered through the needles, heating tissue beneath the skin’s surface. This kickstarts new collagen formation, repairs aging skin, and tightens laxity.

The combination of microneedling and radiofrequency creates a synergistic effect for remarkable rejuvenation. Morpheus8 addresses a wide range of concerns:

• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Dull, uneven skin tone
• Skin laxity and sagging
• Enlarged pores
• Cellulite
• Stretch marks
• Acne scars

Morpheus8 utilizes your body’s self-healing abilities and pairs it with radiofrequency energy to renew and tighten skin for a smoother, more youthful appearance.

What to Expect During Morpheus8 Treatments

Morpheus8 is an in-office procedure performed by our experienced providers. Here is a step-by-step overview of what you can expect:

Step 1 – Numbing Cream Application

We’ll first apply a topical numbing cream to the treatment areas. This anesthetic cream maximizes your comfort so you can relax throughout the treatment.

Step 2 – Treatment Areas Cleansed

Next, we’ll thoroughly cleanse and prepare the treatment areas, usually your face, neck, chest or other areas of concern.

Step 3 – Microneedling with Radiofrequency

Our provider will use a handheld Morpheus8 device with gold-plated microneedle tips to deliver targeted radiofrequency energy beneath your skin’s surface. You’ll feel a warming sensation as the microneedles penetrate.

This process will be repeated methodically across all treatment zones to optimize results. We customize the depth and coverage based on your individual needs.

Step 4 – Soothing Serum & Massage

After your full treatment, we’ll apply a nourishing, hydrating serum to soothe and protect the skin. A light massage helps absorption while minimizing any pinpoint bleeding.

Step 5 – Review Home Care

We’ll review what to expect post-treatment along with tips for home care and when to follow up. Most Morpheus8 sessions take around 45 minutes depending on the coverage area.

Common Side Effects

It’s normal to experience some of these temporary side effects:

• It is normal to experience redness, swelling, and pinpoint bleeding which typically lasts 24-48 hours.
• You may feel some tenderness and warmth in the treatment areas which usually resolves within 2-3 days.
• Minor peeling or flaking of the skin can occur as your skin naturally exfoliates.

Recovery Timeline

• In the first 2 days, you can expect to see peak redness, tenderness, and swelling so avoid strenuous exercise during this time.
• At 3-4 days, the redness and tenderness should start subsiding so most patients feel comfortable resuming normal activities.
• From days 5-7, you may notice some lingering pinkness or dry flakes as your skin begins to look refreshed.

Tips for Smooth Recovery

1. Use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer and avoid abrasive products.
2. Apply SPF 30+ sunscreen daily to protect the healing skin.
3. Avoid direct sun exposure while healing.
4. Stay well hydrated and rest if needed.
5. Follow any additional instructions from your provider.

When You’ll See Results

You can expect to see an improved skin glow immediately after your Morpheus8 treatment. In 2-4 weeks, your skin will start feeling smoother and firmer in texture. Collagen remodeling peaks at around 3-6 months when you can expect to see optimal anti-aging results. After a series of 1-3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, most patients achieve their desired revitalized complexion.
