MORPHEUS8 – fractional radiofrequency for deep skin tightening and remodelling

In aesthetic dermatology, the greatest challenge isn’t the surface of the skin — it’s the structure beneath.

Morpheus8 is one of the most advanced technologies available, working precisely where the signs of ageing originate — in the deeper layers of the skin and subdermal tissue.

What makes Morpheus8 distinctive is the way it combines microneedling and radiofrequency energy, delivering heat directly into the dermis and subdermal layers, where it stimulates:

  • neocollagenesis
  • tissue remodelling
  • contraction of collagen fibres

The result isn’t simply an improvement — it’s a structural transformation of the skin.

The skin becomes:

  • firmer
  • tighter
  • more defined
  • visibly rejuvenated

How is the treatment performed?

Morpheus8 uses fractional microneedles that penetrate the skin and emit radiofrequency energy.

The treatment includes:

1. Skin preparation

  • cleansing
  • application of local anaesthetic

2. The Morpheus8 treatment

  • microneedles penetrate the dermis
  • RF energy heats the tissue
  • collagen production and tightening are stimulated

3. Aftercare

  • soothing preparations
  • regenerative therapy

It addresses:

→ skin laxity
→ wrinkles
→ facial contours
→ texture


What sets Morpheus8 apart?

Compared with CO2 SMAXEL:

  • Morpheus8 → non-ablative (does not damage the surface)
  • CO2 → resurfacing (removes the surface layer)

👉 Morpheus8 = depth and structure
👉 CO2 = surface and texture


Compared with Candela Nordlys:

  • Morpheus8 → tightening and remodelling
  • Nordlys → pigmentation and vascular concerns

👉 Morpheus8 = lifting
👉 Nordlys = complexion


Compared with HIFU:

  • Morpheus8 → dermis and subdermal tissue
  • HIFU → SMAS layer (the deepest lift)

👉 Morpheus8 = remodelling
👉 HIFU = lifting


Compared with SkinPen:

  • Morpheus8 → RF + microneedles
  • SkinPen → microneedling only

👉 Morpheus8 = stronger and deeper effect


Who is the treatment for?

Morpheus8 is ideal for:

  • lax skin
  • loss of facial contour
  • wrinkles and fine lines
  • uneven texture

Particularly suited to:

  • the lower third of the face
  • the jawline
  • the neck

It can also be used on the body:

  • abdomen
  • thighs
  • upper arms

Treatment combinations (the key to outstanding results)

🔹 combinations with other lasers:

  • Morpheus8 + CO2 SMAXEL → structure + resurfacing
  • Morpheus8 + Candela Nordlys → lifting + complexion
  • Morpheus8 + HIFU → multi-layered lifting

🔹 combinations with other treatments:

  • PRP / Angel PRP (Arthrex) → regeneration
  • exosomes → cellular renewal
  • polynucleotides → dermal regeneration
  • biostimulators (Sculptra, Radiesse) → volume and collagen
  • SkinPen → additional stimulation

👉 combinations are what deliver the finest results


Our approach

At our laser centre, we use Morpheus8 as a cornerstone technology for non-invasive lifting.

Our approach is built on:

  • individual assessment of treatment depth
  • precise selection of parameters
  • thoughtful combination with other technologies

We were among the first in Croatia to develop protocols combining Morpheus8 with other treatments, achieving:

  • faster results
  • longer-lasting effects
  • a natural-looking outcome

All treatments are performed by experienced consultant dermatologists, with the utmost regard for safety and precision.


Preparing for the treatment

Before the treatment:

  • avoid retinol and acids
  • the skin must be clean
  • arrive without any irritation

A topical anaesthetic is applied.


Recovery and precautions

After the treatment, you may experience:

  • redness (1–3 days)
  • mild swelling
  • skin sensitivity

We recommend:

  • SPF 50
  • avoiding sun exposure
  • gentle skincare

When are results visible?

  • initial effect → within a few days
  • true results → over 3–6 weeks

Optimal results:

  • over 2–3 treatments

    Frequently asked questions

    Here you’ll find answers to the questions our clients most often ask about our services and treatments.

    + What is Morpheus8 and how does it work on the skin?
    Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to act on the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin from within.
    + Which concerns can this treatment address?
    Lax skin, wrinkles, uneven texture, scars and loss of firmness — particularly across the lower third of the face.
    + When are results visible?
    Some of the effect appears relatively quickly, while the full result develops over several weeks to months.
    + How long do the results last?
    The results are long-lasting, often a year or more.
