What the gurus are saying

The experts who tested Morpheus8 found it can reach deeper layers and target both skin and fat in one treatment, which appeals to those wanting a combined approach. However, the procedure is notably uncomfortable due to larger needle size, and requires topical numbing beforehand. The critical concern: without ultrasound guidance, practitioners can go too deep and cause fat loss that leads to loose skin, so it matters significantly who performs it and how precisely they work. Those considering it may want to confirm their provider has solid experience with depth control.

"Morpheus8 is uncomfortable. You do have to go through topical numbing prior to this procedure. In the patients that we tested it on, there's a lot more pain with Morpheus8 compared to other devices. One of the interesting things is that Morpheus8 has less needles in the tips and the diameter of those needles are bigger. So the needles are bigger in Morpheus8, which is a little more painful when you have a bigger needle penetrating the skin. Morpheus8 can get down to eight millimeters of depth with a certain hand piece and that's going to target fat layers usually on the body. The hand piece that we use on the face goes down to four millimeters in depth. But you don't really want to be four millimeters in depth on the face anyway."

"With Morpheus8, if you're not having the right person to do it, they go way too deep, dissolve fat, and then it's creating laxity. So then you're going to have to call me to refill your face and then you're going to be upset because it's too full. Morpheus8 is not ultrasound guided, and I know that people are going way too deep because you think you're going to get better results and these estheticians are doing it the wrong way. It's going to create more damage than production of collagen."

"The Morpheus8 is a radiofrequency microneedling treatment. Small pins go down into the fat layer and it helps shrink those fat cells back together. One of the advantages that you have with the Morpheus8 is that it'll target the skin layer too. So if you don't want a laser and just want one treatment to treat your skin and the fat, Morpheus8 is great, it's got two in one, targets two layers, so you get a better result."
