Pre-Treatment

To be on the safer side of minimizing any bruising risks it would be best to avoid aspirin, topical antibiotics, AHA/BHA, anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen, herbal supplements, vitamin E, and Fish Oil, at least one week prior to your treatment day if permitted.

It is recommended any use of retinol products, salicylic acid, lactic acid, glycolic acid, exfoliants etc are avoided 72 hours before your Morpheus8 treatment.

We also recommend avoiding sun exposure or tanning (including tanning beds and self-tanning products) for a minimum of 24 hours before the treatment.

Men: Please shave the area to be treated. Long and dense hairs prevent electrode contact with the skin’s surface.
