How does Morpheus8 work?

Morpheus8 works by introducing radiofrequency technology to gently heat facial skin after micro-lesions are performed to help restore and resurface connective tissues. When it is heated to forty-two to forty-three degrees Celsius, collagen, which is the main structural protein in connective tissues, breaks down. Over the course of six-weeks, collagen that is broken down during a Morpheus8 treatment reforms and connective tissues become much tighter and stronger. The face is lifted and volume is added to hallow areas.
