Our board-certified dermatologists at Hollywood Dermatology use this technology to remodel collagen in the deeper layers of skin, helping you get back some of what time has taken away. We offer Morpheus8 at all five of our South Florida locations, including Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Hallandale, West Miramar, and Doral.
Why Collagen Is So Important
Collagen and elastin are two key proteins that work together to keep your skin looking healthy and youthful. Collagen gives skin its structure and firmness, kind of like the framework of a building. Elastin, on the other hand, acts like a rubber band. It allows your skin to stretch and then bounce back into place.
Your skin relies on both to stay smooth, plump, and flexible. But as we age, our bodies start producing less of each. The collagen fibers that once held everything up start to break down, and with less elastin, the skin doesn’t snap back the way it used to. This is a big part of why fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging become more noticeable over time.
How Morpheus8 Boosts Collagen Production
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate your skin’s natural repair process. The microneedles create tiny channels, while RF heat reaches deep into the skin to tighten existing collagen and trigger the production of new collagen and elastin.
This process helps rebuild the skin’s structure from the inside out. As collagen becomes more organized and dense, your skin gradually starts to look firmer. Elastin then helps improve elasticity to give your skin even more lift.
The results build over time, with most people seeing improvements within weeks and continued changes over several months.
Is Morpheus8 Right for You?
Morpheus8 may be a good choice if you’re seeing early signs of aging or want to firm up sagging skin without surgery. It’s suitable for many skin tones, which sets it apart from some laser-based treatments. Our team of board-certified dermatologists will help determine whether it’s the right approach based on your goals and skin type.
We offer Morpheus8 at all five Hollywood Dermatology locations in Pembroke Pines, Hallandale, West Miramar, Hollywood, and Doral. To schedule a consultation, call 954-961-1200.
