Revitalize your skin from the inside out with Morpheus8 microneedling. Our Saratoga, California, practice takes traditional collagen induction therapy to the next level by adding radiofrequency (RF) energy.
Is RF Microneedling Right for Me?
Morpheus8 is safe for all skin types, tones, and ethnicities. This minimally invasive treatment may be right for you if you are looking to treat:
1-month post bilateral lower eyelids Morpheus resurfacing and 4-month post PDO threads to bilateral mid and lower face, Botox to forehead and glabella, and RHA2 dermal filler to forehead for smoother skin texture, sharper jawline, and softer grooves in the forehead and frown line Read More
3-months post Morpheus8 to face and 2-months post bilateral PDO threads to mid and lower face, Botox to forehead and glabella, Restylane dermal filler to glabella and nose, and chemical peel for tighter, smoother, and even tone appearance (no make up) Read More
Dr. Phan cleanses your skin and applies lidocaine cream an hour before treatment to numb the area. She may also prescribe an oral sedative and pain medication to increase your comfort. During the procedure, Dr. Phan passes the ultrafine needles over your skin, creating micro-channels, which stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and other growth factors. The needles also deliver RF energy into the deeper layer of the skin, causing them to contract and tighten.
For highly reactive skin or slow-to-heal skin, Dr. Phan may recommend polydeoxyribonucleotide (PDRN). When used during microneedling, PDRN can facilitate a faster recovery and enhanced result. PDRN is derived from wild salmon DNA and has anti-inflammatory properties. It improves microcirculation for healing and stimulates growth factors for cell turnover and collagen production.
What To Expect After RF Microneedling
There is little to no downtime after Morpheus8. You may experience some redness, tightness, and sensitivity for the first 3 to 4 days. As your body produces new collagen, your skin’s texture and quality will gradually improve over the next several weeks.
For the best results, we recommend an initial treatment cadence of 3 to 5 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart. Your results will last up to 18 months, though many patients book an annual maintenance session to prolong their results.
Meet the Face Behind LaFace
Originally trained in ophthalmology, Dr. Laura Phan has a deep passion for facial aesthetics and the intricate art of surgery. She has trained under world-renowned experts in oculofacial plastic and reconstructive surgery and is one of only a few surgeons in her area with this specialist skillset. Whether she is designing personalized treatment plans or the interiors of her treatment rooms, Dr. Phan's refined aesthetic sensibility and attention to detail shine through.
If you have more significant skin laxity and unwanted fat you would like to treat, FaceTite, AccuTite, and PDO threads are also excellent companion treatments to RF microneedling. Dr. Phan is a firm believer that the best, most long-lasting results require consistent maintenance with follow-up sessions and other physician-directed treatments.
