Morpheus8 – Radiofrequency Microneedling

Fine microneedles deliver radiofrequency energy deep into the skin, where they create a controlled stimulus for connective tissue remodelling – skin tightening without surgery, with medical advice and close supervision.

The principle

Morpheus8 by the manufacturer InMode combines two established procedures: fine microneedling and fractional radiofrequency. The energy is delivered through microneedles at a pre-set depth, where it creates a controlled stimulus to which the skin responds with new collagen formation and remodelling of the connective tissue. This process runs over weeks to months – the result develops gradually and varies from person to person.

What Morpheus8 is used for

  • A slackened jawline and neck – the aim is a more clearly defined contour
  • Fine lines and wrinkles, decreasing skin density
  • Acne scars and other depressed scars
  • Enlarged pores and uneven skin texture
  • The area under the chin (submental)
  • Selected areas of the body such as the abdomen, upper arms or knees

Medical advice and supervision

You are advised by a doctor from our practice: he establishes the indication, explains risks, contraindications and alternatives, and sets out the treatment plan. Treatment takes place on the practice premises at Grüneburgweg; settings, progress and aftercare are coordinated closely with the doctor. The treatment is carried out in line with the requirements of the German Ordinance on Protection against Non-Ionising Radiation (NiSV).

How it works

Before the treatment, an anaesthetic cream is applied and the skin is cleansed and disinfected. The treatment itself takes 60 to 90 minutes depending on the area. Afterwards the skin is red and slightly swollen for one to three days; small crusts may appear. Cooling, soothing skincare and consistent sun protection support healing.

Limits and risks

Morpheus8 is not a substitute for a surgical lift. Possible side effects are redness, swelling, small crusts, temporary pigment changes and – rarely – infection or scarring. The treatment is not suitable for people with a pacemaker or metal implants in the treatment area, or during pregnancy, among other contraindications. We will explain everything else to you in person.

Frequently asked questions

Who advises on Morpheus8 treatment?
You are advised by a doctor at Hautmedizin Westend. He establishes the indication, explains risks and alternatives, and sets out the treatment plan; progress and settings are coordinated closely with the doctors.
How many sessions are usual?
Usually one to three sessions at intervals of four to six weeks. The appropriate number depends on the findings and is agreed during the consultation.
When do results become visible?
Connective tissue remodelling takes time: changes usually become apparent over several weeks to months. No particular result can be promised.
Is the treatment painful?
An anaesthetic cream is applied before the treatment. Most people therefore find the treatment easy to tolerate.
How much downtime should I plan for?
Usually one to three days with redness and slight swelling – considerably less than after fractional CO2 laser treatment, for example.
