What is Morpheus8 RF microneedling, and what are five things to expect from treatment?
The providers at FitLife Med Spa of Chandler, Arizona, believe in providing a wide selection of facial treatments that can be used to enhance one’s appearance. One popular, highly requested treatment is Morpheus8 RF microneedling. Let’s look at RF microneedling to understand how it works and discuss what you can expect from your treatments.
Morpheus8 RF microneedling: what is it?
Our team at FitLife Med Spa describes RF microneedling as a treatment that combines traditional microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy. Microneedling utilizes very small needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating both collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer skin. RF microneedling takes this process a step further by adding heat energy from radiofrequency waves to enhance the results.
How does it work?
During an RF microneedling treatment, a device with tiny needles will be passed over the skin at varying depths. These tiny needles create microchannels in one’s skin while delivering RF energy into the deeper layers. The combination of these two techniques stimulates the body’s natural healing process, resulting in an increase in both collagen and elastin production.

What are five things to expect from Morpheus8 RF microneedling treatment?
- Slight discomfort: While numbing cream is typically applied prior to the procedure, some patients may still experience mild discomfort during treatment.
- Redness and swelling: It is normal for the skin to be red and swollen immediately after the procedure. This usually subsides within a few hours or days.
- Tighter, smoother skin: Results can vary from person to person, but most patients notice tighter and smoother skin after just one treatment.
- Gradual improvement: The full effects of RF microneedling may not be visible until several weeks after the treatment as the body continues to increase both collagen and elastin.
- Multiple sessions may be needed: Depending on your unique skin concerns, multiple sessions may be recommended for optimal results. Our team at FitLife Med Spa will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan.
