The fancy name for it is a “subdermal adipose remodelling device” or SARD. This essentially means it works on the layers under your skin (subdermal) and on the fat (adipose) to give it a new shape (bio-remodelling).
Morpheus 8 treatment uses RF microneedling (radiofrequency energy) to work on things such as skin laxity, collagen and elastin production, acne scars, poor skin texture, body contouring, skin tightening and reducing the natural ageing process.
This FDA-cleared device uses tiny needles to deliver RF energy to different depths of the skin (3mm, 2mm, 1mm). The needles and heat from the RF energy create micro injuries, which trigger your body’s natural healing response and promote the production of new collagen and elastin, to firm the skin and relieve fine lines and lax skin.
The treatment is most commonly used on the face and neck (especially to treat jowls and firm the jawline, under-eye area, and around the mouth), but it can be used just about anywhere on the body, including the abdomen, buttocks, chest, arms or knees.
Morpheus8 treatments can address a wide range of skin concerns. In experienced hands, it can:
For optimal results, most people need a series of up to three treatment sessions, spaced four to six weeks apart.
Stem cells of regenerative properties called exosomes are used in this treatment to get maximum benefits. Its regenerative properties accelerate the rejuvenation and collagen stimulating process
Morpheus8 in Chennai is a treatment where microneedles are used to deliver energy into skin to stimulate fresh collagen. Before the start of the procedure, a numbing cream is applied to help minimize any pain or discomfort to improve patients experience.
Some mild soreness and redness may be present after the procedure. These symptoms are manageable with ice packs.
At Ojas health, Dr. Neha offers 60 minute Morpheus8 sessions. Some treatments are longer or shorter depending on the work and changes desired.
Longer sessions may be applicable for those interested in treating multiple areas. Patients are advised to arrive early to their appointments. Results may be immediate for some, but the most dramatic and long-term improvements can take up to four to six weeks to appear. Additional improvements occur over several months following the last treatment.
The best results are when patients have several treatment sessions. Dr.Neha evaluates each patient and takes their desired outcome into consideration when determining the optimal number of Morpheus8 sessions to provide the best results and outcomes. Each session is scheduled four to six weeks apart to give the skin time to settle and adjust from treatment.
The skin should be in optimal condition to tolerate Morpheus8/ vampire therapy treatments and for optimal results.
Patients should consider the following recommendations on things to avoid before their treatments.
Avoid depilatory, and exfoliating products three days ahead of time.
Avoid salons services and sun tan five days ahead in advance.
Stop taking over-the-counter medications, herbs, and health supplements

There are some limitations candidates should be aware of before scheduling their appointments. After each treatment session, patients should avoid the following for the next five days:
Use of Chemical/ physical exfoliators for the next five days.
Rubbing and scrubbing of skin.
Direct and heavy sun exposure.
A handful of them might develop pin point scabs in the healing phase which eventually falls off on its own. We recommend to avoid picking the skin to prevent scarring.
Heavy fragrances and perfumes
Harsh skincare and beauty products with active, toxic, or abrasive ingredients
The gym and strenuous activities and exercises for the first 24 hours

TCA is an abbreviation for trichloroacetic acid, which is typically used in low concentration (20–35%) for a chemical peel and improves the appearance of facial scars and skin ageing.
TCA CROSS is the chemical reconstruction of skin scars (CROSS) using trichloroacetic acid (TCA). It is most often used as an outpatient clinic procedure to treat atrophic acne scars. It’s inexpensive, safe and efficient, but is not always effective.
The TCA CROSS procedure involves depositing small amounts of TCA at high concentration (70–100%) onto the surface of the atrophic scar. This causes a local inflammatory reaction leading to the formation of new collagen fibres.
The aim is to improve the appearance of the scar by increasing collagen reflectance and reducing shadows cast over scar depressions.
Complete resolution is unlikely to be achieved with this treatment method alone.
Subcision is a minor surgical procedure used for treating depressed cutaneous scars and wrinkles. It is also called subcutaneous incisional surgery.
Subcision is performed using a special hypodermic needle inserted through a puncture in the skin surface. The sharp edge of the needle is used to break fibrotic strands that are tethering the scar to the underlying tissue.
The release of the fibrotic strands and new collagen deposition caused by wound healing leads to cosmetic improvement of the scar. It is accompanied by injection of PRP or skin boosters into the scar for better healing of scars. Subcision can be safely performed in the outpatient setting and is usually well tolerated.
The decision to perform subcision will depend on the type, location, and severity of scarring; patient preference and expectations
Subcision may be used for the treatment of:
• Depressed distensile scars (due to acne, trauma, surgery )
• Depressed bound down scars (due to acne*, varicella (chickenpox), trauma, surgery.
• Cellulite dimples
The decision to perform TCA CROSS depends on:
The type and severity of acne scarring
Patient preference and expectations
TCA CROSS is useful in the following types of atrophic scar:
It is used to treat ice-pick acne scars mainly
It is also used in softening the edges of box scars and rolling acne scars
The healing period or downtime of the procedures mentioned above ranges from 3-7 days. Most patients require 3-6 treatments with TCA CROSS or subcision for optimum improvement. Treatments may be repeated at 4-6 weeks intervals.
To achieve the best results in treating acne scars, combination of PDO mono threads with scar subcision and PRP injections is done. Typically, 3-4 treatments are required with 2-month intervals between each treatment.
Combination of scar revision treatments are more effective than solo treatments because patients typically have different types of scars that require volume restoration, tightening along with resurfacing. From the aforementioned modalities, Dr. Neha tailors the procedures according to the patient’s needs, tolerance, goals, expectations and limitations

A Vampire Facial or PRP facial, combines microneedling (also known as collagen-induction therapy) with topical application of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your own blood.
During a vampire facial, a small amount of your blood is drawn and spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelets rich in growth factors. These growth factors are key players in skin repair and regeneration. The separated plasma is then re-applied to your face, often after micro-needling, which creates tiny channels in your skin for the plasma to penetrate.
This process stimulates collagen production, promotes cell turnover, and helps to heal scars, including those caused by acne. It’s a natural approach to skin enhancement that can provide dramatic results.
Exosomes mesotherapy harnesses the power of over two billion stem cell derived lyophilized exosomes, potent growth factors, peptides, coenzymes, minerals, amino acids and vitamins.
TheExosome Facial is part of the newest term in modern aesthetics known as regenerative medicinewhich reduces the appearance of acne scarring and aids in tissue repair caused by sun damage. TheExosome serum can is applied post an advanced laser treatment like RFmicroneedling with Morpheus8 by creating micro channels
