Today, I would like to discuss treatment options for acne, especially for those who prefer not to take oral retinoids. Morpheus8 treatment, as an emerging method, has demonstrated significant effects in improving acne and alleviating signs of aging. So, who is suitable for this treatment? Let’s explore further.
First of all, Morpheus8 is particularly suitable for patients with acne scars. This therapy can penetrate deep into the skin, showing remarkable results in repairing acne scars. Additionally, for patients who have been troubled by acne for a long time or those who are unwilling to try oral retinoids, Morpheus8 is a choice worth considering. This treatment can also yield good results for moderate to cystic acne.
Now, what about patients with demodex mites? Can they undergo Morpheus8 treatment? Since treatment for demodex mites usually requires a separate protocol, if you have oily skin and a demodex issue, it is recommended to seek other specialized treatment options. However, Morpheus8 is still suitable for improving acne caused by oily skin.
Next, let’s take a look at who should avoid oral retinoids. If you are a woman planning to conceive, this period typically involves taking many supplements and possibly receiving ovulation injections, which can worsen acne. In this situation, if topical medications are ineffective, microneedling radiofrequency could be a worthwhile alternative. Furthermore, if there is a specific need to control acne quickly within 2 to 6 weeks and oral retinoids or topical medications alone cannot achieve this, it is also advisable to consider this technology. Lastly, if you are facing both acne and acne scars and wish to address both simultaneously, Morpheus8 is also a suitable option.
The principle behind Morpheus8 treatment is to promote overall skin improvement through specific patterns. The device penetrates to a depth of 2.0 mm beneath the skin, heating the sebaceous glands to improve the environment for acne formation, thereby reducing the occurrence of acne. In fact, during the first couple of weeks after treatment, you may not notice significant effects, but around two weeks later, many patients are pleasantly surprised by the results of the treatment.
During the procedure, a certain level of discomfort may be felt, but the overall recovery post-treatment is relatively simple. There will usually be only mild redness and swelling, with the scabbing and healing process completing in about seven days. Additionally, Morpheus8 can improve skin texture, making the skin smoother, and it has firming and lifting effects.
