Benefits of Morpheus8
Safe For All Skin
Morpheus8® does not damage skin pigment, so it can be used on all skin tones. You can achieve improved skin without worrying about causing damage.
Customizable
This treatment is completely customizable, addressing only the issues you want, only where they occur. Morpheus8® can treat most areas of your body with skin concerns.
Versatile
Not only is Morpheus8® great for reversing wrinkles and fine lines, but it can also target uneven skin tone, scarring, stretch marks, and more.
How It Works
Traditional microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries that encourage the skin’s natural repair response. Morpheus8® skin treatment and Exion RF Microneedling build on this concept by pairing microneedling with radiofrequency energy, allowing treatment to extend beyond the skin’s surface.
This combined approach delivers controlled heat into deeper dermal layers while creating micro-channels at the surface. The process supports collagen and elastin activity over time and is often included in treatment plans focused on texture and firmness.
At Xanadu Med Spa in Fort Collins, providers adjust depth, energy, and technique based on each patient’s skin type. This allows for a measured approach to areas such as fine lines, visible pores, and regions where skin may appear less firm.
Because these technologies reach deeper layers than traditional microneedling alone, they are often chosen by patients seeking gradual skin improvements. Over time, the skin may appear smoother and more refined as part of its natural renewal process.
Let’s Get Real
Taking the Filter Off of Medical Aesthetics
Episode 1
In our first episode, we talk real results and real passion, covering chemical peels, personalized care, and why educating patients is at the heart of what we do. No filters, just honest conversations about what makes medical aesthetics so rewarding.
What to Expect
Your Morpheus8® or Exion® RF microneedling experience at Xanadu Med Spa in Fort Collins is designed to feel calm, personalized, and thoughtfully paced. As part of a tailored Morpheus8® treatment, each step from consultation through aftercare is approached with attention to detail and your individual comfort.
- Personalized Skin Assessment: Your provider begins by evaluating your skin concerns, including laxity along the jawline, deeper wrinkles, uneven texture, or sun damage. Together, you’ll decide whether Morpheus8®, Exion® RF Microneedling, or a combination approach is the right fit for your goals.
- Numbing for Comfort: A topical numbing cream is used for maximum comfort. Most clients describe Morpheus8® and Exion® as highly tolerable, with sensations ranging from gentle pressure to light heat.
- Your Customized RF Microneedling Treatment: During the treatment, controlled microneedles create precise micro-channels in the skin while radiofrequency energy heats the deeper layers. This dual action:
- Stimulates collagen and elastin production
- Tightens existing collagen fibers
- Improves texture, firmness, and contour
Morpheus8® penetrates the deepest layers for powerful tightening, while Exion® delivers controlled RF with less discomfort. Your provider selects the ideal device based on your needs.
- Immediately after treatment, there may be mild redness, warmth, or swelling, similar to a light sunburn. These effects typically subside within 24–48 hours. Some tightness or sensitivity is normal.
- Minimal Downtime, Natural Healing: Most clients return to normal activities the same day or the next day. Light flaking or dryness may occur within a few days as the skin renews itself. Visible improvements begin quickly, with more dramatic changes appearing as collagen rebuilds over the following weeks.
- Gradual, Transformative Results: You’ll start to notice a glow, firmness, and a smoother texture as early as 1 week after treatment. The most significant tightening and contouring continue to develop over 4–12 weeks as your skin produces new collagen. Many clients complete a series of 2–4 sessions for optimal results.
