Learn more from our team about Morpheus8, what it is, how it works, and what makes it an effective solution for rosacea.
Rosacea typically appears on the face, manifesting as persistent redness, flushing, visible blood vessels, and acne-like bumps. It often affects the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead, varying from mild to severe.
While the exact cause of rosacea is unknown, genetics, environmental triggers, immune system problems, and abnormalities in the blood vessels may contribute to its development.
Common triggers for rosacea flare-ups include:
Medications that dilate blood vessels, including some blood pressure medicines, can also trigger or exacerbate a rosacea outbreak.
Traditional treatments for rosacea focus on managing its symptoms. Topical medications work to reduce redness and inflammation, while oral antibiotics can help control acne-like breakouts. In some cases, laser therapy or intense pulsed light (IPL) treatments may help reduce redness.
Morpheus8 is a cutting-edge skin treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to rejuvenate the skin and improve its appearance from the inside out.
Unlike traditional microneedling devices, Morpheus8 utilizes insulated microneedles that deliver RF energy deep into the dermis, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin from within.
This innovative approach addresses fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scars and targets the redness and uneven skin tone associated with rosacea.
The combination of microneedling and RF energy in Morpheus8 offers several benefits for individuals with rosacea, including:
Morpheus8 treatments can be customized to address each patient's unique concerns and skincare goals. As a plastic surgeon, Dr. Blumenauer provides the expertise required to ensure your experience at Oceana Aesthetics offers optimal results.
By delivering controlled thermal energy to the deeper layers of the skin, Morpheus8 promotes collagen remodeling and new collagen generation, leading to firmer, more resilient skin.
The thermal effect of RF energy can help constrict blood vessels, reducing redness and flushing associated with rosacea.
Over time, as new collagen forms and the skin's structure improves, patients experience a noticeable reduction in rosacea symptoms and a smoother, more even complexion.
Morpheus8 can precisely target areas of redness and inflammation, making it ideal for treating rosacea on the face.
Unlike more invasive procedures, Morpheus8 requires minimal downtime. Most people resume their regular routine shortly after a treatment session.
With a series of Morpheus8 treatments spaced several weeks apart, patients can enjoy long-lasting improvements in their skin's appearance and texture.
