Morpheus8 offers an excellent treatment alternative for individuals who may have reservations about undergoing laser or surgical procedures, yet desire to enhance their facial appearance.
Â
After your Morpheus8 treatment, these are some recommendations you have to follow:
Â
Dos:
- Prioritize Cleanliness: Always wash your hands thoroughly before touching your face and make sure to use fresh pillowcases regularly.
- Gentle Cleansing: Employ a mild soap or facial cleanser to cleanse your skin, ensuring it doesn’t irritate the healing process. After washing, gently pat the treated area dry with a clean towel.
- Hydration is Key: Maintain skin hydration by applying a gentle moisturizer or ointment.
- Minimal Makeup: While it’s best to avoid makeup until your skin has healed, if necessary, opt for mild makeup products and use clean makeup brushes.
- Sun Protection: After the initial 24 hours following the procedure, use a high-SPF sunscreen when outdoors. Opt for physical sunscreens over chemical ones, and make SPF 30 or higher your go-to choice to safeguard your skin and prevent future sun damage.
Don’ts:
Â
- Sun Avoidance: Minimize sun exposure as much as possible, and steer clear of tanning beds as direct sunlight can lead to hyperpigmentation.
- Refrain from Active Skincare Products: Avoid using products classified as active skincare and those containing harmful chemicals.
- Gentle Bathing: While bathing is allowed, refrain from scrubbing the treated area. Additionally, avoid swimming for the first 24 hours post-treatment.
- Steer Clear of Fragranced Soaps: Avoid soaps with heavy fragrances and perfumes that could irritate the skin.
- No Exfoliation: Hold off on using exfoliating skincare products until your skin has fully healed.
- Avoid Picking: Be cautious not to pick at any small pinpoint scabs that may appear after the treatment, as this can lead to scarring or skin hyperpigmentation.
- Skip Heavy Exercise: Avoid vigorous exercise and the gym for the first 24 hours after treatment, as sweating can lead to the buildup of bacteria on the skin.
