Problem and Solution

1

Problem: Scars are often a result of severe acne, skin injury or surgery that can leave indentations and uneven skin.

Solution: For scars, Morpheus8 breaks down old scar tissue and promotes the synthesis of new collagen, resulting in smoother, more even skin.

2

Problem: Aging and sagging occur due to the natural degradation of collagen as we age, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of skin firmness.

Solution: For rejuvenation, Morpheus8 stimulates the production of collagen lost over the years, improving its density, volume, and overall quality.

Patients Before and After Treatment

How Does Morpheus8 Address My Concerns?

Microneedling

Microneedling
(Creating Micro-Holes):

Tiny needles penetrate the skin, creating micro-holes or controlled micro-injuries in the targeted areas.

Radiofrequency Energy

Radiofrequency
Energy:

As the microneedles create these micro-holes, radiofrequency (RF) energy is simultaneously delivered heat deep into the skin.

Dual Action

Dual Action:

The combined action of microneedling and RF energy stimulates the skin's natural healing process. This leads to the production of new, healthy collagen and elastin, which helps to smooth out scars, tighten the skin, and improve overall texture and firmness. The skin is gradually remodeled, resulting in a more even and rejuvenated appearance.

FAQ

Can Morpheus 8 change my facial features?
faq unit arrow

RF modalities like Morpheus 8 can potentially alter facial features by shifting fat pockets, but this only occurs when the technician uses energy levels above 40 joules (which may be used only for fat reduction, but not for scar treatment or rejuvenation). Additionally, counterfeit machines can also cause unintended changes. At our clinic, we prioritize your safety and results by using only authentic, FDA-approved Morpheus 8 machines, and we never exceed a safe energy level, with a maximum of 30 joules.

Can you perform a single aggressive treatment to address all my concerns at once?
faq unit arrow

No, we cannot. At AcneClinicNYC, our primary mission and goal is to maintain skin integrity and health while achieving noticeable improvements without side effects. We adhere to strict protocols designed to deliver effective results while preserving the skin’s integrity. Multiple, carefully planned treatments are necessary to ensure the best outcomes safely.

Will every Morpheus8 treatment be the same for me?
faq unit arrow

No, each Morpheus8 treatment is tailored to your skin’s progress. We evaluate the results after each session and adjust the settings to ensure optimal outcomes. The settings may be increased or remain the same based on factors such as your skin’s immediate reaction, post-treatment recovery, achieved results, skin condition, and skin tone. These considerations determine how the treatment is adjusted and whether it is combined with other modalities.

How long is your experience with Morpheus8?
faq unit arrow

At AcneClinicNYC, we have been working with RF Microneedling for 6 years and have performed over 2,000 treatments, all of them successful.

When can I wear makeup again?
faq unit arrow

After 24-48 hours, once any redness or swelling subsides.

Will I need to take time off work?
faq unit arrow

Taking a day off is not necessary. However, your skin will be red after the treatment, so it is recommended to go straight home afterward.

Is there an age limit?
faq unit arrow

Our recommendations are a minimum age is 16 for scar treatment and 27 for rejuvenation.

Reviews from Our Clients

Julia B.
5 Stars Review

I have been battling acne for the last 18 years. I have tried every single antibiotic, medication, crème, soap, topical, etc. you name it. I did see some results that I was actually pleased with while on Accutane/Isotretinoin.

Katarina L.
5 Stars Review

I have had the most amazing experience since I started the Acne Treatment Program with Veronika 2 months ago! My face is almost flawless but beyond that I have developed a great friendship with her.

Cristina G.
5 Stars Review

I came in for a scars consultation, and Alexandra told me I didn't need aggressive treatments like lasers because my scarring wasn’t severe or old. She recommended PRP or microneedling with exosomes, which sounded best for my situation. I ended up choosing PRP, and it worked well for my scars. My pores are now smaller and tighter.

Julia B.
5 Stars Review

I came to AcneClinicNYC to treat my scars, and I also had acne at the time. Veronika said we should tackle the acne first. My skin cleared up fast, and then they did three PRP treatments. This got rid of all my acne scars. Now my skin is even-toned and smooth, and a lot of people have noticed.
