Morpheus 8 in New Orleans
Does your facial skin reveal your age? If so, the culprit may be both skin laxity and uneven tone. Until recently, treating both issues often required multiple methods, including surgery and lasers. However, emerging aesthetic technologies now make it possible to achieve comprehensive facial rejuvenation without extensive or invasive procedures.
For non-surgical facial rejuvenation in New Orleans, our team offers Morpheus8. This technology utilizes radiofrequency (RF) to create meaningful skin tightening without the need for invasive treatment. When combined with microneedling, another non-surgical procedure, RF delivers remarkable results by improving skin laxity, tone, texture, and overall appearance.

What Is Morpheus 8?
Morpheus8 combines the skin-tightening benefits of radiofrequency with the effectiveness of microneedling to enhance facial beauty. Morpheus8 is a revolutionary skincare system because it penetrates deeper than many existing microneedling devices and has been granted FDA approval as a subdermal adipose remodeling device (SARD).
The underlying layers of the dermis serve as the building blocks of attractive facial contours. Morpheus8 delivers fractional skin treatment to these support structures, enhancing facial beauty while accelerating collagen production to improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and tighten skin.
By targeting the skin’s deeper layers, Morpheus8 stimulates the restructuring of soft tissue, creating natural anti-aging effects. The technology can be used on areas such as the neck, chin, and jawline. It is also effective for treating acne scarring and skin discoloration.
FaceTite
FaceTite is an advanced technology developed by InMode that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to reduce excessive fullness in the lower face and tighten loose skin without the risk of scarring. The technology works by contracting fibers both beneath and on the skin’s surface. During the procedure, our doctors create small puncture sites in the chin to allow the insertion of specialized probes. These probes tighten the dermis at and beneath the surface, while sensors monitor the temperature to ensure optimal endpoints are reached for the best results.
Combining Morpheus 8 With FaceTite (Embrace RF)
Combining Morpheus8 with FaceTite is the next best alternative to a surgical facelift. This combination addresses skin laxity through three-dimensional tissue remodeling. The built-in real-time monitoring of skin and fat temperature ensures patient safety. Embrace RF is a minimally invasive procedure performed under light sedation or local anesthesia.
During the treatment session, a thin probe with a needle-like entry point is inserted beneath the skin at the treatment area to deliver RF heat and energy to the underlying tissue. Both the skin surface and underlying tissue are treated simultaneously using a specially designed handpiece. This process targets small areas of stubborn fat while causing the skin to contract, resulting in firmer, slimmer, and more youthful facial contours.

Benefits of Microneedling With Fractionated Energy
Fractionated RF energy is a clinically proven approach to soften wrinkles and restore collagen and fat. Morpheus8 uses microneedling to rejuvenate the deeper layers of the skin with minimal downtime. Microneedling creates microscopic injuries on the skin’s surface, triggering the body’s natural healing processes. During healing, new collagen and elastin are produced, which contribute to youthful-looking skin.
RF energy then heats these deeper skin layers in a controlled manner to further stimulate collagen production. The procedure improves skin texture and tone, resulting in a more youthful, radiant complexion. The combination of radiofrequency and microneedling is highly effective in plumping the skin, making it look youthful and feel firmer to the touch.
