Treatment Overview
What is Morpheus8?
Morpheus8 is an FDA-cleared fractional radiofrequency microneedling device that simultaneously creates micro-channels in the skin and delivers RF energy at precise depths — combining the collagen induction effect of microneedling with the deeper remodeling effect of RF. The RF energy heats the dermis and subdermal fat, triggering collagen synthesis, skin tightening, and scar remodeling. At Skin Clinic by Dr. Eram Razzaq, needle depth and RF energy are calibrated for each patient based on scar severity, skin laxity, treatment area, and downtime tolerance.

Adjustable needle depth (1mm to 4mm) allows precise targeting of superficial and deeper skin layers.
Effective for atrophic acne scars, skin laxity, fine lines, and enlarged pores.
RF component stimulates deeper collagen remodeling beyond what microneedling alone achieves.
Can be used on face, neck, jawline, and selected body areas.
