What Happens During a Morpheus8 Treatment (And Why It’s Worth It)

If you're starting to notice that your usual skincare routine isn’t quite cutting it — or you’re ready for something with a little more impact — Morpheus8 treatment might be just what you’re looking for. It’s a non-surgical option that blends RF microneedling with collagen- and elastin-boosting power to help smooth fine lines, tighten delicate areas, and refine the upper face and eye area.

At Parenti-Morris Eyecare in Rogers, we’ve seen just how transformative this treatment can be for clients who are already invested in their skin and want to take their results further — without the downtime of surgery.

If it’s your first time trying Morpheus8 (or you just want the full scoop), we’re walking you through the entire experience — from how to prep, to what it feels like, to what kind of glow-up you can expect after.

What Is Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 treatment combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to remodel your skin from the inside out. Think of it as a deep refresh that targets both the surface and deeper layers of the upper face and eye area — boosting collagen, strengthening elastin, tightening, and refining texture all at once.

Here’s what it’s especially great for:

  • Lifting and tightening around the eyes, brows, and forehead
  • Softening fine lines and deeper wrinkles in delicate areas
  • Improving uneven tone and texture in the upper face
  • Kickstarting long-term collagen and elastin production for sustained rejuvenation

At Parenti-Morris Eyecare, we offer Morpheus8 RF microneedling for the upper face and eye area right here in Rogers — so if you’ve been thinking about a reset that delivers real, visible results, this is it.

Before Your First Session

Before your first Morpheus8 session, we’ll start with a one-on-one assessment — because no two concerns are the same.

Here’s what you can expect during that visit:

  • We’ll take a close look at your upper face and eye area and chat about what you’d like to improve
  • We’ll review your medical history to make sure Morpheus8 is a safe, smart fit
  • And we’ll map out a customized plan tailored to your concerns — whether that’s crow’s feet, eyelids, or forehead lines

Hydration is key. In the days before your appointment, make a conscious effort to drink plenty of water. Well-hydrated skin responds better to treatment and maximizes your initial results.

Other prep steps:

  • Skip strong skincare actives like retinols or glycolic acid
  • Keep sun exposure to a minimum
  • If you’re taking any blood-thinning medications, check in with your provider about a short pause

During Your Morpheus8 Treatment: Step-by-Step

Wondering what actually happens during a Morpheus8 session? Here’s how things typically go, start to finish — no surprises, just results.

  • Topical Numbing: First, we’ll apply a numbing cream to keep you comfortable. This takes about 45–60 minutes to fully kick in, so you can relax while it works.
  • The Treatment Itself: Once you’re numb, we’ll begin. The Morpheus8 handpiece uses ultrafine microneedles to deliver RF energy (that’s radiofrequency heat) into the upper face and eye area. You might feel a warm, light pressure — most clients describe it as manageable.
  • Where We Treat: At Parenti-Morris Eyecare, Morpheus8 is FDA-cleared for the upper face and eye area. That means we can safely target zones like the eyelids, under-eye area, forehead, and brow region.
  • Comfort Is Key: Throughout your session, we check in with you — adjusting settings, asking how you’re feeling, and making sure you’re comfortable every step of the way.

Most sessions run approximately 30 minutes, depending on the treatment plan. Then it’s off to start healing and seeing results.

Aftercare & Downtime

One of the best parts about Morpheus8? It delivers powerful results without sidelining your week. Here’s what to expect after your treatment:

  • Immediately after: Your skin will look a little red and feel warm — like you’ve had a light sunburn. Totally expected.
  • Next 1–3 days: You might see some pinpoint marks, bruising, or experience light flaking and sensitivity. It’s your skin’s way of doing the work.
  • Post-treatment care: Keep it simple, in the first 24 hours avoid any products or makeup. After that time period think gentle cleansers, fragrance-free moisturizer, and daily SPF. Skip makeup and actives for a day or two, avoid retinoids for approximately 7 seven days after treatment.
  • Don’t forget hydration: Drinking plenty of water helps your skin recover smoothly and enhances that early glow.

Most clients are back to their routine the next day — just looking a little fresher and more hydrated.

When Will I See Results?

RF microneedling isn’t an instant fix — and that’s actually a good thing. Results build gradually, which means they look natural and last longer.

  • That early glow: Within the first week, your upper face and eye area may look smoother and more refreshed.
  • The real shift: Around 3–4 weeks in, collagen production begins revving up. That’s when skin starts to look firmer, brighter, and more youthful.
  • Best results: Most clients hit their peak results after a series of 2–3 sessions, spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Collagen and elastin continue remodeling for up to 6 months after your last session — giving you ongoing improvement in texture and tightness.
