Morpheus 8
Radiofrequency Microneedling
Repair. Remodel. Restore.
Advanced Collagen Remodeling for Face and Body
Morpheus8® is one of the most advanced technologies available for skin tightening and structural remodeling. At The Refinery, we use this treatment intentionally to strengthen, firm, and refine the skin at a deeper level.
This innovative technology combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production within the dermis and subdermal layers. By delivering controlled heat beneath the surface, Morpheus8® remodels tissue, improves elasticity, and enhances overall skin integrity.
Unlike treatments that focus only on surface correction, Morpheus8® addresses the deeper foundation of the skin. This allows us to treat both facial and body concerns with precision and purpose.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Morpheus 8 treat?
Morpheus8® improves skin tone, texture, and firmness by stimulating collagen deep within the skin. It can be used on both the face and body to address a wide range of concerns.
Face
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Laxity along the jawline and neck
• Submental fullness or mild submental fat
• Acne scars
• Uneven texture
• Enlarged pores
• Thinning or crepey skin
Body
• Loose skin on the abdomen, arms, or thighs
• Stretch marks
• Textural irregularities
• Areas needing tightening and contour refinement
Because Morpheus8® works beneath the surface, it targets structural concerns rather than just surface imperfections, leading to smoother, firmer, and more resilient skin over time.
How does it work?
Morpheus8® uses tiny insulated needles to deliver radiofrequency heat deep into the skin. These needles create controlled micro injuries while the heat stimulates collagen and elastin production beneath the surface.
This process triggers your body’s natural healing response, encouraging the skin to rebuild itself stronger, firmer, and smoother.
When used at deeper levels, Morpheus8® can also target subdermal fat, helping to refine areas of mild fullness such as under the chin while tightening the surrounding skin.
Over time, as new collagen forms, the skin becomes tighter, smoother, and more resilient.
How long is the treatment?
Treatment time varies depending on the area being treated and your customized plan.
Your appointment includes approximately one hour for topical numbing to maximize comfort. The Morpheus8® treatment itself typically takes about 45 minutes for the face and neck.
Larger body areas may require additional time based on the size and number of areas being treated.
How many treatments will I need?
For optimal results, we typically recommend a series of three treatments spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. This allows your skin time to rebuild collagen between sessions while progressively improving firmness and texture.
After your initial series, yearly maintenance treatments may be recommended based on your individualized treatment plan, skin condition, and long-term goals.
How much does it cost?
Pricing for Morpheus8® starts at $450.
Final investment depends on the treatment area size, number of sessions recommended, and your customized treatment plan. During your consultation, we will review pricing in detail and create a plan tailored specifically to your goals.
What is the recovery like?
Recovery after Morpheus8® is typically very manageable.
You can expect 1 to 3 days of redness and mild swelling. Some patients experience light pinpoint scabbing or mild flaking that can last up to a week as the skin naturally renews itself. It is normal for the skin to feel warm, tight, or slightly sensitive in the first few days.
Most patients feel comfortable returning to normal daily activities within a couple of days. Makeup can usually be applied 48 hours after treatment unless otherwise directed by your provider.
At The Refinery, you will go home with a curated post-treatment care kit to support proper healing and optimize your results.
To enhance collagen stimulation and support faster recovery, we often recommend adding PRP or EXOIE exosomes to your treatment. These advanced regenerative options help calm inflammation, accelerate healing, and further improve overall skin quality.
Does it hurt?
Each appointment includes approximately one hour of topical numbing to ensure the treatment is very tolerable. For patients who would like additional support, we also offer ProNox for relaxation during the procedure.
Most patients describe the sensation as moderate pressure with areas that feel warm or spicy at times. Discomfort is typically mild depending on the treatment depth and area, but with proper numbing in place, it remains very manageable for most patients.
Our team monitors you closely throughout the treatment and adjusts as needed to keep you comfortable from start to finish.
When will I see results?
Collagen production begins immediately after treatment, but visible results develop gradually. Most patients start noticing improvement around 4 to 6 weeks, with continued tightening and smoothing over the next several months.
Results often peak around 3 months and can continue improving up to 6 months after your treatment. Each session builds on the last, and annual maintenance may be recommended to maintain your results.
