HIFU uses ultrasound energy, while Morpheus8 uses radio frequency energy to achieve skin tightening results. A major difference is the technology used by both treatments to stimulate the skin's collagen response. A major similarity between Morpheus8 and HIFU is that both are non-invasive, non-surgical skin tightening treatments. Both heat the skin, although using different technologies, to induce a collagen remodeling response in the deeper layers of the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles.
HIFU normally requires a session every 12 to 18 months for optimal maintenance. With Morpheus8, a series of 3 to 4 sessions, with an interval of 4 to 6 weeks, may be recommended for optimal results. Both HIFU and Morpheus8 treatments usually have minimal downtime and require little or no post-treatment care. However, it's important to follow your doctor's instructions to ensure optimal results.
These may include avoiding excessive exposure to the sun and using gentle skin care products during the healing process. The long-term results of Morpheus8 and HIFU are highly dependent on individual factors such as age, skin type and lifestyle. However, when properly maintained, the effects of these treatments can last for years, making them a worthwhile investment for appearance. The recommended number of sessions depends on your specific needs and desired results. However, Morpheus sessions can often be done in 3 to 6 courses.
However, it depends on the area being treated, for example, on the state or extent of the problem in that area. Our experienced clinician will take this into account when recommending the number of treatments needed to get the results you can be happy with. With HIFU, you may get some results right after treatment. However, in general, results may take up to three months (12 weeks) to show, after which they will continue to improve for up to seven months after treatment.
At Vie Aesthetics, our expert medical team will consider the results you want to achieve, the technology you are comfortable with, and when you want to get the results. Morpheus8 offers faster results in a shorter period of time, and the initial visible results are seen from the start and are significantly improved. However, the HIFU can take several months to see visible results. HIFU is fantastic as a preventive anti-aging treatment, as well as for improving the already visible signs of aging and laxity.
Starting treatments like HIFU at age 30, along with a great at-home skincare routine and an anti-aging lifestyle will really help you maintain your best appearance. This is because our body is better able to produce collagen at this age. Their ability to produce new collagen decreases as we age. This doesn't mean that having HIFU at an older age isn't good either; it just means that, with a given treatment, a little less healing is triggered. If you are looking for treatment outside the face and chest area, Morpheus8 is the one for you.
It also offers longer results compared to a HIFU facial treatment, making it ideal for those who don't have much time to plan a follow-up treatment after the initial number of sessions. In our experience, we have found that Morpheus8 offers better results for our patients. Morpheus8 offers faster results, as you'll notice significant improvements in your skin 4 to 6 weeks after the first treatment session, while the results of HIFU may take several months to become visible. Unlike Ultherapy, HIFU does not use imaging technology.
This means that doctors can't see the layers of skin they're treating or the effects the treatment has on the skin. Therefore, HIFU is known as “skin tightening treatment for the blind”, since doctors cannot see the layers of skin they are treating or the impact which produces. For many clients, the combination of HIFU and Morpheus8 offers the best of both worlds: a firmer, smoother facial structure, along with smoother, clearer skin. Together, HIFU and Morpheus8 can treat both deep stretching and surface refinement, making them a powerful combination for customers looking for a comprehensive anti-aging approach.
However, Morpheus8 goes one step further by using microneedling to directly stimulate collagen production. Cosmetic Skin Clinic professionals are trained to the highest standards to provide a personalized Morpheus8 treatment that provides you with excellent results. The Morpheus8 is a special microneedling device that uses very small “microneedles” to penetrate and injure affected skin at an underlying level. The face and body can be reshaped and contoured with Morpheus's minimally invasive fractional technology8. At Pulse Light Clinic, Morpheus8 prices start at €799 for body areas, while a series of three HIFU sessions for face and neck cost €1,949. The Morpheus8 combines the effects of microneedling technology and radio frequency (RF) energy to sculpt and reshape the inner layers of the skin.
Morpheus8 is a fractional radiofrequency microneedling treatment that targets both the skin surface and deeper tissues, improving skin texture, fine lines and laxity. Morpheus8 can be used on almost all areas of the face and body, as it is also efficient at removing stretch marks and sculpting. Morpheus8 is a microneedling treatment that uses advanced radio frequency energy to strengthen, tighten and soften the skin. On the top of the innovative Morpheus8 device there are 24 coated microneedles that, when applied to the treatment area, stimulate the healing response. Both the HIFU and the Morpheus8 offer excellent results on their own, but they act at different depths of the skin.
Areas commonly treated with Morpheus8 include arms, thighs, buttocks, neckline, knees, neck, chest, and hands. Since Morpheus8 can be used on both the face and body, the benefits of this treatment combined they are numerous.
