Morpheus8 RF Microneedling

Morpheus8 by InMode combines fractional gold-coated microneedles (up to 7 mm) with bipolar radiofrequency energy for subdermal remodelling. Improves skin laxity, acne scars, enlarged pores, jowling, fine lines, and body contouring. Face and body applications available. Pricing by consultation. Sessions run forty-five to sixty minutes; mild redness and swelling resolve over two to three days.

Morpheus8 by InMode is a fractional radiofrequency microneedling platform available at Fulcrum Aesthetics in Chicago, combining the collagen-induction benefit of microneedling with the deeper tissue remodelling effect of bipolar radiofrequency energy delivered at the needle tip. The device uses a 24-pin gold-coated needle array that penetrates to programmable depths between 0.5 mm and 7 mm — one of the deepest penetration ranges available among fractional RF systems. This depth capability allows Morpheus8 to address not only the dermis (for acne scars, fine lines, and pore size) but also the subdermal tissue plane, where RF thermal energy remodels the fibroseptal network surrounding adipocytes — producing a contouring effect on areas such as the jowls, lower face, and body when used at greater depths. The Burst Mode RF delivery method fires RF energy at three distinct depths per needle insertion in a single stamp, layering thermal coagulation zones across multiple tissue levels simultaneously and improving efficiency over single-depth systems. For facial applications, Morpheus8 is used in the one to four millimetre depth range to improve jowl laxity, soften nasolabial folds, reduce enlarged pores, smooth acne scars, and improve overall skin quality. For body applications — including the abdomen, inner arms, and thighs — deeper settings in the four to seven millimetre range reach the superficial subdermal fat, providing mild contouring alongside skin tightening. A topical numbing cream is applied before treatment; sessions take forty-five to sixty minutes. Post-treatment redness and micro-swelling from the needle channels typically resolve within two to three days. A course of two to three sessions spaced six to eight weeks apart is typically recommended for optimal collagen remodelling outcomes.
