Are you embarrassed by the appearance of deep acne scars? Have you tried over-the-counter products with little success? Morpheus8 uses radiofrequency (RF) energy and microneedling techniques to reduce scar tissue and promote collagen production. Board-certified physician Dr. Leah Waage has helped countless people achieve a smoother, healthier complexion with this innovative skin rejuvenation treatment.

Now, acne scars can be a thing of the past. Call Lazerdoc in Leavenworth, KS to schedule a consultation and see what Morpheus8 can do for you – patients are amazed at the difference it makes.

Why do I have deep acne scars?

Though most people get pimples and whiteheads as teenagers, acne breakouts can be a problem well into adulthood. Unfortunately, acne leaves behind discoloration and indentations in the skin. These marks form due to an overproduction of collagen around the lesions.

Scars can be difficult to erase on your own – even drugstore creams may not be powerful enough to reduce pits and indentations. Cosmetic treatments are often necessary to achieve your desired results.

Morpheus8: The latest technology in skin rejuvenation

Microneedling is a process where needles are administered into the skin, creating tiny puncture wounds that stimulate natural healing. Radiofrequency energy promotes collagen production, a protein that is responsible for skin elasticity and firmness. When combined, these techniques address a wide range of skin issues, including deep acne scars.

Morpheus8 has been extensively tested and trusted by aesthetic professionals all over the country. Dr. Waage has personally seen the results of this procedure in action and can attest to its efficacy. Best of all, treatment is minimally invasive, with little downtime required. You'll notice that your skin looks more even-toned and vibrant in just a few short sessions.

What to expect during a Morpheus8 session

Lazerdoc uses a handheld device to deliver microneedles and RF energy into targeted areas. Dr. Waage can perform an assessment beforehand to determine the best course of action for treatment. The entire procedure takes between 30 – 60 minutes, and numbing cream can be applied beforehand to reduce discomfort. Patients are given a set of aftercare instructions to follow for optimum results.

When to expect results after Morpheus8

You may experience a few days of redness, swelling, and tenderness after Morpheus8, but these effects should dissipate within a short period based on the depth of your procedure. Smoother skin becomes more evident as swelling subsides and collagen production begins to take effect. Patients generally require 3 – 6 sessions with Dr. Waage to receive the best outcomes. Skin rejuvenation results can be long-lasting if you follow the recommended post-treatment instructions.
