Which Is Best FaceTite, Morpheus8, or Laser?

Radio Frequency treatments are all the rage right now- and for a good reason! They are quick-to-see-results and minimally invasive treatments that you can do in less than an hour. Many patients love these easy RF treatments because they give instant results. But if you have a little bit more time on your hands, consider doing laser skin resurfacing. This treatment is the key to complete facial rejuvenation with long-lasting results. It addresses all skin issues and restores a youthful, glowing appearance. With different options to choose from, you may ask yourself how do I know which option is right for me? Let’s look at the benefits of each one of them to help figure out where you should start the conversation with your doctor.

What is FaceTite?

FaceTite is an alternative to a traditional facelift that uses radio frequency (RF) technology to contour the face and boost collagen production in the skin. It simultaneously melts the fat while tightening the skin giving quick results in about an hour! By targeting fat and tightening loose skin, FaceTite treatment is a great option for a tighter, smoother face and youthful radiance. This treatment is also fabulous for the neck area where double chin or sagging jowls can cause an aged appearance. At Perich Aesthetics, Dr. Perich has noticed a significant improvement in her patient’s appearance right after the procedure. FaceTite is an FDA-approved RF technique that Dr. Perich considers her favorite to tighten and lift sagging skin on the face and neck, previously only achievable by the surgical invasive facelift.

What is Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 is another safe, FDA-approved RF treatment that uses radio frequency energy in combination with microneedling. This means tiny pins penetrate the skin while the radio frequency energy is delivered to depths of 2-4 millimeters (which is predetermined per area) to remodel the collagen below. This creates a smoother appearance to minimize fine lines, wrinkles, scars, as well as remove facial fat, hanging jowls, and double chin by going deep. This is a great option for contouring to create a younger, slimmer, and sharp effect. It is the most trendy, anti-aging treatment that women and men love. In fact, Morpheus 8 can be used on the body or the face and even under the eyes!

What is CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing?

This option does not use radio frequency at all! If you are uncomfortable with any of the options above, and you don’t mind two weeks of skin healing downtime, CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing is perfect for you. It is a minimally invasive procedure that applies a matrix of light points to the skin to boost the production of collagen. This effectively reduces the signs of aging and targets all different kinds of skin issues. It can take 10 years off of your face! The CO2 laser can fade out sunspots on the skin, smooth fine lines, get rid of wrinkles, improve skin texture, skin laxity, and minimize surgical and acne scars by removing the skin’s outer layers and allowing radiant new skin cells to shine through. Dr. Tanya Perich from Perich Aesthetics, experienced in laser skin resurfacing, says that this is a very popular option in Florida as more and more patients want to treat skin tone issues, pigmentation issues, and damages caused by the Florida sun. Overall, after a little bit if of downtime, you will end up having a fresh, younger, more even, smoother skin that you will fall in love with!

So which is best for YOU?!

Well, you can actually do a combination of them, depending on what your specific needs are. Laser Skin Resurfacing is amazing for acne scars, sun spots, or any other skin irregularities that happen. FaceTite is perfect for someone who is looking for a nonsurgical facelift without any downtime. Morpheus8 goes deep down in the skin to really target the extra fat and remove those sagging jowls. All three options will help boost production of collagen in your skin, create a natural facelift, and smooth out wrinkles no matter which you choose. Consulting with a professional like Dr. Perich, who is experienced in all three, will give you the best customized results to look and feel younger!
