What is RF microneedling, and how does Morpheus8 work?
RF microneedling combines thermal radiofrequency (RF) energy waves with ultrafine microneedles to deliver targeted treatment beneath the skin’s surface. As the treatment creates controlled micro-injuries, the RF heats the deeper layers of the skin. This triggers the body’s natural healing response, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin, structural proteins responsible for skin strength, elasticity and overall integrity..
Morpheus8 employs cutting-edge RF Fractional SARD (Subdermal Adipose Remodelling Device) technology, offering a three-fold triple-action approach. By combining microneedling and fractional RF, the treatment achieves remarkable skin tightening outcomes while ensuring minimal downtime. The term 'triple action' pertains to the technology's three distinct effects on the targeted area: ablation, fat coagulation and volumetric bulk heating. These actions work harmoniously to produce a consistent and uniform outcome.

What are the risks of RF microneedling?
As with any cosmetic treatment, RF microneedling may carry some risks and side effects:
-
Redness or swelling at the treatment site
-
Mild bruising or tenderness
-
Temporary skin texture irregularities (e.g., small bumps or marks)
-
Minor risk of scarring or infection if aftercare is not followed
How many treatments are required
A course of three to four treatments is recommended, with treatments being performed every four to six weeks. The total amount of treatments needed will always be discussed with your skin therapist, and a customised treatment plan will be tailored to you and your skin's condition.
You may expect to see some gradual improvement in your skin's quality and appearance over the next two weeks post-treatment. It is important to note that the treatment provides continual, subtle results over time due to its ability to provide skin regeneration through elastin and collagen production. Therefore, clients may expect seeing results over the next six to 12 months after the end of their treatment course.
Results and recovery times vary between individuals based on factors such as skin type, age, treatment area and adherence to aftercare for RF microneedling.
What is the expected downtime?
You may experience mild to minimal redness, swelling, tenderness and bruising, which can be common side effects; however, these should subside fade within a couple of days. In some instances, clients may notice small dots from where the microneedles have been — these will start to fade within a couple of days.
Post-treatment instructions must be followed to ensure correct healing and optimal results. You will be provided detailed RF microneedling aftercare guidelines prior to your appointment, including:
-
Avoiding direct sun exposure over the next two weeks.
-
Avoiding any heat-induced activities over the next 72 hours.
-
Keeping the treatment area clean and applying SPF and moisturiser daily.
-
Skipping mechanical or physical exfoliation in the treatment area over the next two weeks.
* These are only some instructions for post-Morpheus8 treatment.. Please note you will be provided with the full aftercare instructions before your appointment and also after.
When should I seek medical attention?
While most side effects are mild and temporary, you should contact your healthcare provider promptly if you experience:
-
Prolonged bleeding lasting more than 24 hours
-
Signs of blistering or abnormal skin reactions
-
Swelling that persists beyond one week
-
Symptoms of infection (such as increasing pain, heat or discharge at the treatment site)
