After Treatment Care for Morpheus8

1. Immediate Post-Treatment Care

  • Rest and Recovery: Mild redness, swelling, and tenderness in the treated areas are normal and should subside within a few days. You may feel like you have a mild sunburn.
  • Avoid Touching the Skin: Refrain from touching, scratching, or picking at the treated area to allow your skin to heal properly.
  • Hydration: Drink plenty of water to support the body’s natural healing process and help maintain skin hydration.

2. Activity Restrictions

  • Physical Activity: Avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sweating, and heavy workouts for at least 48 hours after the procedure to prevent irritation and swelling.
  • Sun Exposure: Avoid direct sun exposure for at least 1-2 weeks after the treatment. Always wear a high-SPF sunscreen when going outside to protect the skin from UV damage.

3. Skincare Routine

  • No Makeup or Active Skincare Products: Refrain from using makeup, retinoids, acids (AHAs, BHAs), or exfoliants for at least 48 hours post-treatment.
  • Gentle Cleansing: After 24 hours, cleanse the treated area with a gentle, non-irritating cleanser. Avoid scrubbing or using hot water.
  • Moisturize and Soothe: Use a gentle, hydrating moisturizer to help soothe the skin and keep it hydrated during the healing process.

4. Follow-up Care

  • Treatment Results: You may begin to see initial improvements in skin texture and tone after a few days, with full results appearing gradually over the following weeks as collagen production increases.
  • Multiple Sessions: Depending on your skin condition and goals, additional Morpheus8 sessions may be recommended. Your doctor will advise you on the ideal treatment plan.

5. Potential Side Effects

  • Mild Redness or Swelling: Redness, swelling, or slight bruising in the treated areas is common and should subside within a few days.
  • Dryness or Peeling: As your skin heals, you may notice some dryness or peeling. Continue to moisturize and avoid harsh skincare products.

6. When to Contact the Clinic

  • Signs of Infection: If you notice unusual redness, warmth, pus, or persistent pain, contact your doctor immediately as these may be signs of infection.
  • Prolonged or Severe Side Effects: If swelling, redness, or discomfort lasts longer than expected or worsens, contact the clinic for further evaluation.
