Morpheus8 utilizes a combination of microneedles and radiofrequency energy to deliver controlled thermal energy deep into the skin's layers. This innovative technology promotes collagen and elastin production, resulting in skin tightening and improved texture. The microneedles create tiny punctures in the skin, while the RF energy stimulates the natural regenerative processes.

Cutera truSculpt is a non-invasive body contouring treatment that utilizes radiofrequency technology to reduce fat and tighten skin. It works by delivering targeted heat to the underlying fat cells, causing them to break down and be naturally eliminated by the body's lymphatic system.

The quick, 15 minute treatment is comfortable and well-tolerated, with minimal to no downtime required.

BTL Exilis Ultra is a non-invasive cosmetic device that combines radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound technologies for various aesthetic treatments. It is commonly used for skin tightening, body contouring, and facial rejuvenation.
