During your consultation for Morpheus8 for the face in Atlanta, Dr. Killingsworth and his team will review your medical history and aesthetic goals to help determine if you are a good candidate for Morpheus8 facial treatment.

What Should I Expect During Morpheus8 For The Face?
Prior to the Morpheus8 procedure, a topical numbing agent will be applied to minimize any potential discomfort. Then, the skin will be cleaned and further prepped for the procedure. Once the procedure begins, microneedles will be used to gently penetrate the subdermal layers of the skin. Through these needles, radiofrequency energy is emitted as heat and absorbed through the punctures in the skin. Morpheus8 is performed in small sections to ensure patient comfort throughout the entire procedure.
Although procedure times will vary depending on the patient, Morpheus8 for the face can be completed in as little as an hour. Due to its minimally invasive nature, Morpheus8 is performed in-office and patients can return home immediately after the treatment.
What Should I Expect After Morpheus8 For The Face?
Following Morpheus8 for the face, patients may experience temporary swelling, soreness, or irritation. However, these symptoms are normal and should subside in the days following the treatment. Before sending you home, Dr. Killingsworth and his team of plastic surgery professionals will provide detailed aftercare instructions. It is important that patients follow these instructions with care in order to maximize their results.
After the Morpheus8 treatment, patients should avoid direct contact with the sun and make sure to apply SPF when going outdoors. Patients should also ensure that they are keeping the treatment area(s) dry and clean to avoid the risk of infection. Additionally, patients should avoid skin irritants such as retinol, lotion, and other skincare products to aid in the healing process.
