When Is the First Follow-up Made After Morpheus 8 Treatment?
The first follow-up appointment after Morpheus 8 application is generally planned within a few days after the procedure or at the latest within one week. In this follow-up appointment, the skin's first reaction to the treatment, healing signs such as redness, sensitivity, swelling and crusting are evaluated.
Especially in intensively performed treatments or in people with a sensitive skin structure, follow-up appointments are of great importance in terms of monitoring the healing process. In addition, every patient does not necessarily have to go for follow-up on the same days. The timing of follow-up appointments is determined together with physician evaluation.
When Is a Follow-up Made to Evaluate the Final Results?
The effects of Morpheus 8 cannot be evaluated only by the changes that occur after the application. The collagen synthesis and tissue renewal triggered in the skin with radiofrequency energy shows its effect over time. For this reason, the skin's response to the treatment should be evaluated in the four to six week period after treatment. During this period, your physician examines the changes in the skin tissue and decides whether additional sessions need to be applied. Later months may be awaited for a final and more comprehensive result evaluation.
When Should You Go for a Follow-up for a New Morpheus 8 Skin Renewal Session?
Morpheus 8 is generally planned as multiple sessions. Session intervals are generally between four to six weeks. However, this period is not the same for every patient. Before planning a new Morpheus 8 session, how the skin responded to the previous session and whether it has healed sufficiently should be evaluated. If redness, crusting or sensitivity continues, the postponement of the new session can be decided. The number of sessions and intervals are decided by the physician according to the needs of the person's skin and the response given to the treatment.
In Which Cases Should You Not Wait for the Follow-up Date?
After Morpheus 8 application, it is normal to see mild redness, swelling and sensitivity. However, if these are accompanied by severe and increasing pain, blistering, discharge or infection concerns, you should contact the physician without waiting for the planned follow-up appointment. The most correct follow-up schedule is planned by the physician in line with the person's skin structure, the scope of the treatment and goals.
