More people today are turning towards aesthetic treatments to mitigate their signs of aging, often preferring them over invasive surgical procedures. Dealing with sagging skin, uneven texture, fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, and acne scars are all common goals for patients, regardless of age.
At Capitis Medical & Aesthetics, Dr. Crose and the entire medical team strive to help patients embrace internal and external health through wellness treatments such as Morpheus8™. This revolutionary skin treatment has been an established part of Dr. Crose’s practice, improving epidermis concerns for the face and body and providing rejuvenation without surgery.
What Is Morpheus8™?
Morpheus8™ is a revolutionary non-surgical device that combines the collagen-inducing properties of microneedling with radio frequency energy (RF) to achieve profound fractional remodeling. Rather than targeting the skin’s surface only, this combination of microneedling and RF technologies reaches the deep tissue, restructuring it to smooth, tighten, and contour any problem areas.
Radiofrequency technology causes underlying tissues to alter their shape, while microneedling increases the production of vital rejuvenating proteins such as collagen and elastin. Additionally, the Morpheus8™ microneedles reach deeper than others on the market, creating micro-injuries in the skin and triggering the body’s healing process.
What Are the Benefits of Morpheus8™?
Morpheus8™ treatments can improve the skin and underlying tissue of any face and body area that can benefit from sub-dermal and deep dermis renewal, including the lower facial area, neck, jowls, knees, and abdomen.
- Safe for all complexions
- Minimally invasive
- No downtime or recovery
- Quick, effective results
Morpheus8™ treatments are the most powerful non-surgical procedures to tighten, tone, smooth, and resurface the skin and body for stunning, rejuvenating results.
How Can I Combine Morpheus8™ with Other Non-surgical Treatments?
Since Morpheus8™ treatments are minimally invasive, with little downtime and recovery, they are easily paired with other aesthetic treatments offered at Capitis Medical & Aesthetics.

Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) Treatments
PRP is an excellent provider of stem cells that aid in regeneration and stimulate the new growth of healthy, younger skin. After Morpheus8™ treatments, the skin can more easily process nutrients, making this an ideal time for a PRP facial.

Am I a Candidate for Morpheus8™?
Candidates for Morpheus8™ are interested in smoothing, tightening, and contouring the skin and may be experiencing specific concerns such as:
- Acne or acne scars
- Rough or uneven skin texture
- Sun damage
- Mild sagging or jowls
- Stretch marks
- Fine lines and wrinkles
Morpheus8™ is the non-surgical alternative to invasive and time-consuming treatments. Many Morpheus8™ patients want to maintain their youthful skin or have minor concerns that can be addressed well with the option, especially if they aren’t ready yet for a facelift.
How Are Morpheus8™ Treatments Performed?
To ensure optimum patient comfort and ease, your Morpheus8™ specialist will apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area. Once the site is sufficiently numbed, your specialist will determine the specific microneedle length for your particular area of concern and can customize this treatment throughout the process.
The deep microneedles penetrate the skin painlessly, which allows the RF energy to reach the deep tissue. You may feel some moderate warmth as the RF energy heats the skin’s underlying tissue, increasing collagen production and restructuring the underlying layers.
Including the time it takes for the topical anesthetic to work, Morpheus8™ treatments can take anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half. This timeframe will vary depending on the size of the treatment area, the amount of treatment needed, and if you have combined your Morpheus8™ procedure with any other treatments.
Following treatment, your skin will have a youthful glow, with some possible swelling that will dissipate within a few hours. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately following treatment.
How Much Do Morpheus8™ Treatments Cost?
At Capitis Medical & Aesthetics, we aim to create a custom experience for each patient. As such, the cost of Morpheus8™ treatments will vary depending on the specific treatment plan developed at the time of your consultation, the length of your procedure, and the number of treatments needed.
Dr. Crose and the Capitis Medical & Aesthetics team can provide you with an accurate cost estimate at the time of your consultation.
How Long Is Morpheus8™ Recovery?
Morpheus8™ treatments are a non-surgical, minimally invasive response to common signs of aging. Because of the advanced technology used, the gentleness of the procedure, and the skill of your specialist, you should feel minimal discomfort during and after your procedure.
Some patients may feel flushed, warm, or experience redness around the treatment area after the procedure, as the RF energy uses heat to increase collagen production. These symptoms may last up to a week following treatment. During this time, your skin should be protected with moisturizer and a good SPF lotion.
Most patients can return to work the following day after their Morpheus8™ treatments.
When Will I See the Results of Morpheus8™ Treatment?
Morpheus8™ is the most potent and effective microneedling RF treatment on the market. Results will vary depending on your treatment area and the correction level needed, but some patients can see immediate results following their first treatment. For optimum rejuvenation, results may appear after a few months.
Part of the Morpheus8™ treatment relies on the production of collagen and elastin and an increase in cell renewal. These body functions take time, so you can expect to see your results continually improve over a few months.

Morpheus8™ Frequently Asked Questions
How many Morpheus8™ treatments will I need for ideal results?
This will depend entirely on your specific concerns and the assessment during your consultation. Some patients with minor concerns, or those who only want to maintain their youthful appearance, may only need one treatment. Others may require multiple treatments spread out over several weeks.
How do Morpheus8™ treatments compare to a facelift?
Morpheus8™ can provide comparable skin tightening, lifting, and smoothing results to a facelift without incisions and recovery. However, facelift surgery is ideal for patients with severe to moderate facial sagging and wrinkles.
Morpheus8™ is best for patients with mild to moderate facial concerns who do not want to undergo invasive surgery or those looking to maintain and enhance their youthful skin.
How can I care for my skin after Morpheus8™ treatments?
Immediately following treatment, it is best to avoid any cosmetic products. After one day, you may wear makeup. As your skin heals, be sure to maintain proper skin care with gentle products: wear high-SPF sunscreen daily, moisturize, and avoid putting any harsh chemicals on your skin.
