Duration
1 hour
Dr. Ostad's practice offers Morpheus8, a fractional radiofrequency microneedling device that remodels subdermal tissue and tightens skin on the face, neck, and body. RF energy delivered through gold-plated microneedles stimulates collagen and elastin at depth, addressing skin laxity, texture irregularities, enlarged pores, and fine lines. Compared to ablative laser resurfacing, Morpheus8 offers meaningful structural improvement with three to five days of social downtime. Safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types.
About this treatment
Morpheus8 has become one of the most widely adopted non-surgical skin tightening technologies in Manhattan cosmetic practices, and Dr. Ostad's Upper East Side clinic offers it as a key option for patients who want structural skin improvement without the downtime or cost of surgical procedures.
The device combines fractional microneedling with radiofrequency energy delivered through the needle tips into the dermis and subdermis. This dual mechanism achieves two distinct effects: surface texture improvement from the microneedling component (controlled micro-injuries triggering the wound-healing cascade), and deeper volumetric heating that contracts existing collagen fibres immediately while stimulating new collagen and elastin synthesis over the…
Morpheus8 is particularly well-suited for patients with early facial laxity who are not yet candidates for surgical lifting, or those who want to extend the results of a prior facelift. Common treatment areas include the lower face and jowls, the neck and under-chin, and the periorbital region. Body applications — abdomen, inner arms, thighs — are also available for skin tightening after weight loss.
