The Power of a
Collagen Reboot
Collagen makes up your skin’s internal framework. As your body produces fewer of these proteins over the years, that structure weakens. Without ample support, your skin weakens and shows signs of damage and aging, such as sagging and scars.
With Morpheus8 microneedling, we’re giving your skin the resources to rebuild. Using microneedles, our physician-led team creates micro-channels on your skin’s surface to trigger your natural healing response, which boosts collagen production. Meanwhile, those needles emit RF energy even deeper into the skin, enhancing your results without causing more surface-level damage.

Frequently Asked Questions About Morpheus8 Microneedling
Both traditional and RF microneedling use microneedles to create tiny, controlled injuries on the skin’s surface to trigger your natural healing response and ramp up collagen production. However, RF microneedling takes things further without inflicting more damage.
The needles in our Morpheus8 device emit waves of RF energy, which reach deeper than the needles can. This energy gently raises your skin’s internal temperature, which promotes collagen production, to offer more dramatic improvements than traditional microneedling without additional downtime.
Yes. Unlike some laser skin treatments, Morpheus8 is suitable for individuals with all skin types, including darker skin tones. Because this system doesn’t rely on light energy, which targets melanin, it doesn’t carry the risk of hyperpigmentation, like some lasers.
At JK Med Spa, our skilled, physician-led team adjusts the depth and intensity of your RF microneedling treatments based on your skin type to prioritize safe and effective treatment.
In the 3 to 5 days leading up to your appointment, limit your sun exposure and avoid using retinoids and blood thinners to reduce irritation and bruising after treatment. Drink plenty of water on the day of your appointment to ensure your skin—and the rest of your body—is hydrated to support the healing process.
We recommend wearing comfortable clothing to your appointment so you can relax during the treatment process. Great outcomes begin before the first pulse of energy meets your skin. Rest assured that your provider will walk you through these steps in detail so you feel confident walking in and out of our office.
During the first 1 to 3 days after treatment, you may experience redness, swelling, and warmth in the affected area. These signs indicate that collagen production has begun.
Avoid applying makeup and other products for the first 24 hours, allowing your skin to breathe. For the next 2 weeks, apply SPF daily and limit your sun and heat exposure to support the healing process. You’ll notice gradual improvements in your complexion as your skin uses its new collagen supply to rebuild.
