Lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin are among the most common age-related complaints from clients seeking skin rejuvenation treatments. For those hoping to address a wide variety of aging skin concerns simultaneously, Morpheus8™ radiofrequency (RF) microneedling is a popular solution. Using this innovative technology, Dr. Michael Klingerman offers RF microneedling in Scranton, PA, to help clients at NABI Medical Aesthetics address stubborn and unsightly facial lines, loose skin, and other issues to restore a smoother and more youthful complexion overall. Let’s take a closer look at the benefits of RF microneedling for facial wrinkles here, including what kind of results may be possible for you and how long you can expect your newly enhanced look to last.

What treatment will help with wrinkles on my face?

Facial lines and wrinkles are often the result of a natural loss of collagen and elastin, sun damage, repetitive muscle movements, and other factors. The aging process is a primary contributor to the development of lines, wrinkles, and other unwanted changes in the complexion. While there are numerous skin rejuvenation treatments and procedures available today, RF microneedling is among the most popular and effective — thanks to its ability to treat a wide variety of age-related skin concerns simultaneously and with long-lasting results. At NABI Medical Aesthetics, our experienced team utilizes the Morpheus8 system to perform RF microneedling treatments.

What can be treated with RF microneedling?

Some of the most common skin concerns that can be addressed, improved, or even reversed with Morpheus8 RF microneedling include:

  • Lines and wrinkles
  • Sagging skin
  • Loose skin
  • Enlarged pores
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Acne scars

The targeted RF energy and microneedling utilized in Morpheus8 treatments work to stimulate the production of collagen and elastin while triggering the body’s natural healing process, helping to reveal new, healthy, firmer, and more glowing layers of skin.

How long does Morpheus8 last?

RF microneedling results with Morpheus8 can last for up to 6 – 12 months after a full round of treatment, which may include a series of sessions. To prolong the results of Morpheus8 microneedling, it is important to:

  • Avoid sun exposure
  • Keep the skin moisturized and hydrated
  • Wear sunscreen
  • Drink plenty of water
  • Do not smoke
  • Consider complementary facial rejuvenation treatments and procedures between RF microneedling sessions

Is RF microneedling safe for all skin types?

The advanced technology used in Morpheus8 RF microneedling is generally considered safe for most skin types. However, there are some exceptions. Patients with open wounds or lesions, active acne outbreaks, sunburns, rashes, particularly sensitive skin, and other conditions or concerns may not be eligible for RF microneedling. Prior to treatment, Dr. Klingerman or one of our experienced aesthetic providers will carefully assess your skin and determine whether RF microneedling — or an alternative skin tightening and anti-wrinkle treatment — may be safe, appropriate, and effective for you.
