The duration of Morpheus 8 Skin Renewal Treatment is shaped by the size of the area where the procedure will be applied, the needs of the skin and the preferred application protocol. For example, in narrower application areas such as the face, the treatment is completed in a shorter time, while treating the neck, under the chin or body areas can extend the total duration. Generally, Morpheus 8 sessions can be completed within a time frame of 30 to 60 minutes. However, if we also take into account the time waited for the anaesthetic creams applied before treatment to take effect, the total time can be longer.

How Long Does Morpheus 8 Facial Application Take?
Morpheus 8 applications limited only to the facial region, in narrower areas, can mostly be completed in 30 to 45 minutes. However, the size of the area to be treated and the preferred device tip affect this duration. If the procedure is applied to the neck and under the chin as well as the face, the total time becomes longer. In particular, when a procedure is applied to more than one area in the same session, more comprehensive planning is needed and the total session duration can be extended.
How Long Does Morpheus 8 Applied to Body Areas Take?
The duration of Morpheus 8 treatment performed on different body areas such as the legs, arms and abdomen is closely related to the size of the application area. While procedures performed on a small area are completed in a shorter time, in large body areas this period can extend to 60 to 90 minutes. In large body areas, the device tip to be used, the needle depth and the size of the area to be treated are among the factors affecting treatment duration.
Is Anaesthetic Cream Included in the Procedure Time?
Before Morpheus 8 application, creams with a local anaesthetic effect are generally used so that the patient can have a more comfortable treatment experience. It is generally necessary to wait between half an hour and one hour for the cream to take effect. For some applications this period may be longer. For this reason, the time the device works on the skin should not be confused with the total duration of the appointment. For example, in a 30 to 45 minute procedure, when anaesthesia preparation and pre-application checks are added, the time the patient spends in the clinic can exceed one to one and a half hours.
What Factors Affect Morpheus 8 Application Duration?
If we examine the elements affecting the duration of Morpheus 8 application one by one:
The size of the application area – While applications in the facial region are completed in a shorter time, in the neck and large body areas the duration can be longer.
The needs of the skin – Different periods may be needed for different skin problems such as wrinkles, enlarged pore appearance, acne scars or sagging.
Application depth and device usage parameters – The energy level used and the depth of the needles can affect the number of treatment passes and the duration of the procedure.
Treatment of more than one area – If a procedure needs to be applied to more than one area in the same session, the total duration of the appointment can also be extended.
