At Ithaca Medical Aesthetics your provider will use the most innovative and advanced techniques during your Morpheus8 procedure to give you dramatic results with just one treatment.
WHAT IS MORPHEUS8?
Morpheus8 (M8) is a minimally-invasive fractional skin treatment which delivers radio-frequency energy at a variety of subdermal depths through gold-coated microneedles located at the tip of the headpiece.
The radio-frequency heat also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, tightening the fibroseptal network. This results in firmer, more youthful-looking skin.
Morpheus8 can be combined with PRP therapy for optimal results!

Before & After Morpheus8
DR JUDY TODD TRANSFORMS JUDY MURRAY'S SKIN WITH THREE MORPHEUS8 TREATMENTS
.....and Judy, 61-year-old, looks 10 years younger! Hear what she had to say about her experience.
"That was absolute gold dust! I mean if they’ve noticed and mentioned it, then it clearly has made a huge difference, and that made me very happy.
“Andy and Jamie couldn’t work out what I’d been up to but when I’ve explained it to them, they were interested and Jamie’s wife even said to me that she’d had some micro-needling treatments, but not one as advanced as the one I’d had.
“I’d say it’s taken at least ten years off my appearance, as you can see for yourself. I am absolutely thrilled to bits with the result, my skin is fresher, clearer, and I feel much better about myself.
"The lines on my face have softened significantly and what I love about it most is how many people are noticing and are saying, 'what have you done to your skin,' and then I tell them, that it’s a natural treatment and it’s all thanks to Dr Judy Todd.
"I’ll definitely do it again, it has really helped me, and I would recommend it to anybody.”
The Morpheus8 results speak for themselves:
WHAT HAPPENS DURING A MORPHEUS8 PROCEDURE?
The Morpheus8 handheld device works by “stamping” the skin with the microneedles in order to remodel deep layers of the skin. During the treatment you will feel heat and pressure on the treatment area. Different levels of energy can be used to address different aesthetic concerns. Because there Morpheus8 doesn’t use incisions, there is no scarring left behind. Every patient is different, but on average, 1-3 Morpheus8 sessions may be needed to achieve the desired results.
DOWNTIME AND RECOVERY
Recovery and downtime are greatly dependent on the individual, intensity of treatment, and areas treated.
However, most patients resume their normal activities within 3-5 days following an M8 treatment
Sun exposure should be avoided to protect the newly resurfaced skin.
What to Expect the day of...
A Morpheus 8 treatment takes approximately 1 hour.
You will be asked to arrive 45 minutes early to allow time for numbing of the area. We use a topical numbing cream to numb the area and minimize discomfort. Other pain-control options are available including Pro-Nox and Mesoram.
Pro-Nox is a patient-controlled inhaled analgesia system that delivers a 50% oxygen and 50% nitrous oxide mixture for the relief of pain and anxiety. The effects of Pro-Nox wear off in 10-15 minutes allowing patients to resume normal activity right away including driving.
Mesoram is a multi-needle injection that delivers small amounts of lidocaine to the treatment area. Mesoram is ideal for Morpheus8 treatments as it numbs at varying depths below the skin and as the skin surface.
Following treatment, skin may be slightly red, similar to a mild sunburn. Redness should subside within the first 24 hours following treatment. Expect up to 3 days of social downtime. While improvement is noticeable after 1 treatment, to achieve optimal effect, 3-4 treatments are typically recommended.
