Morpheus8
If you’ve started to notice skin laxity, uneven texture, or sun damage, microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy can help you achieve smoother, brighter, and healthier-looking skin from the inside out. At Buckhead Facial Plastic Surgery in Atlanta, Georgia, our next-gen Morpheus8 Burst device delivers notable skin rejuvenation with minimal downtime.
What Is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is a cutting-edge fractional RF microneedling treatment that targets the deeper layers of skin to trigger collagen and elastin production. The treatment uses ultra-fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries while delivering heat-based energy deep into the dermis. This pairing stimulates collagen, firms the skin, and visibly improves skin tone and texture.
What’s Unique About Morpheus8 Burst?
Morpheus8 Burst builds on the original technology by delivering RF energy at multiple skin depths in a single pulse. This advanced approach offers more efficient tissue remodeling and more dramatic results in fewer treatments.
Morpheus8 Burst is especially beneficial for:
- Lifting and firming sagging or aging skin
- Treating deeper lines and creases
- Reducing cellulite and stretch marks
- Fading acne scars and other types of scarring
- Shrinking enlarged pores
- Improving overall skin brightness and tone
It can also be used for fat remodeling and as a treatment for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).
Benefits of Morpheus8
There are many reasons to love microneedling with Morpheus8, including:
- Nonsurgical facial rejuvenation
- Safe for all skin tones
- Minimal discomfort and downtime
- Customizable treatment depth
- Natural-looking results that improve over time
Morpheus8 is ideal for patients seeking visible, long-lasting improvements without the risks or recovery time associated with surgery.
Who Is a Good Candidate for RF Microneedling?
You may be a great candidate for RF microneedling if you:
- Have mild to moderate skin laxity
- Want to address signs of aging, acne scars, or sun damage
- Prefer a nonsurgical approach to facial rejuvenation
- Are healthy and not pregnant or breastfeeding
During your personal consultation, we will ensure that Morpheus8 is the right fit for your skin type, concerns, and goals.

What To Expect
We perform Morpheus8 treatments in our Buckhead office; they typically take 30 to 60 minutes. We will cleanse and prep your skin with a topical numbing cream before passing the handheld device over the treatment areas. You may feel warmth and a mild stinging sensation during the treatment, but it’s tolerable.
After your session, you may notice sunburn-like redness or swelling that subsides over the following couple of days. Most patients return to their normal activities within 1 to 2 days and can typically apply makeup after 24 hours to camouflage any residual redness.
You can see visible rejuvenation in 2 to 3 weeks, with the full effects achieved 3 to 6 months after your final treatment session.
Combining Morpheus8 With Other Treatments
While Morpheus8 is highly effective on its own, many patients pair it with other treatments for even more noticeable results.
- FaceTite or AccuTite: For patients with more pronounced skin laxity, combining Morpheus8 with these RF-based skin tightening treatments can deliver deeper tissue contraction and facial contouring.
- Dermal Fillers: While Morpheus8 improves skin tone and texture, fillers like JUVÉDERM® or Restylane® can restore lost volume and smooth deeper creases.
- BOTOX® Cosmetic: Wrinkle relaxers work well alongside Morpheus8 to target dynamic expression lines, while microneedling and RF energy improve overall skin quality.
- Medical-Grade Facials & Skin Care: Treatments like Hydrafacial® or chemical peels exfoliate the skin, clear pores, and help maintain your results between Morpheus8 sessions.

Morpheus8 FAQ
What’s the difference between microneedling and RF microneedling?
Both treatments stimulate collagen to improve skin texture and tone. Traditional microneedling uses fine needles to trigger natural healing, whereas RF microneedling—like Morpheus8—adds radiofrequency energy to target deeper layers and enhance skin tightening. The right choice depends on your goals and skin concerns.
How many Morpheus8 sessions will I need?
Most patients benefit from a series of 3 sessions, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. You can schedule maintenance sessions as needed.
How long do results last?
Results can last 12 to 18 months or more, depending on your skin health and maintenance. Annual touch-ups can help maintain your results.
