Morpheus8 is using a technology called Marco FLOW RF whereas Sylfirm is using Microneedle RF technology. There are significant differences between the two.
What are the advantages of using over Microneedle RF technology?
Macro FLOW RF offers several advantages over Microneedle RF technology:
Higher Maximum Energy: Morpheus8 typically have a higher maximum energy output (up to 64W) compared to Sylfirm (up to 16W).
Insulated Needle Type: Morpheus8 use insulated needles, which can help in delivering energy more precisely to the targeted areas of the skin.
Depth of Penetration: Morpheus8 can penetrate the skin to depths of up to 7mm, allowing for treatment of both the epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous layers effectively.
Skin Layers Treated: Morpheus8 can target multiple skin layers, including the epidermis and dermis, as well as fat/SMAS layers, providing a comprehensive treatment approach.
Efficacy: Morpheus8 is known for its efficacy in treating various skin concerns such as enlarged pores, scars, acne, stretch marks, tightening, eye bags, and cellulite.
Overall, Morpheus8 offers a more precise, versatile, and effective treatment option for a wide range of skin concerns compared to other Microneedle RF technology.
How does the depth of penetration affect the effectiveness of the treatment?
The depth of penetration plays a crucial role in determining the effectiveness of a skin treatment. Here’s how the depth of penetration can impact the treatment outcomes:
Targeted Treatment: Deeper penetration allows the energy to reach specific layers of the skin, such as the dermis or fat/SMAS layers, where certain skin concerns originate. This targeted approach can lead to more effective treatment of issues like wrinkles, sagging skin, and cellulite.
Stimulating Collagen Production: Penetrating deeper into the skin can stimulate collagen production in the dermis, which is essential for skin firmness, elasticity, and overall rejuvenation. Increased collagen production can help improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and enhance skin tightening effects.
Addressing Different Skin Layers: Different skin concerns may originate in various skin layers. By reaching different depths, the treatment can address a wider range of issues, such as acne scars in the dermis or tightening in the SMAS layers.
Customized Treatment: The ability to adjust the depth of penetration based on the specific skin concern and individual needs allows for a more customized and tailored treatment approach. This customization can lead to better results and patient satisfaction .
Can you provide more information on the pain levels associated with each type of technology?
The pain levels associated with different types of technology in skin treatments can vary based on factors such as the mode of operation, depth of penetration, and individual pain tolerance. In general, Morpheus8 can go deeper and achieve higher energy level and the discomfort may be more compared with other Microneedle RF devices. It is important that the doctor use local anesthetic or other pain control method to reduce the sensation.
