Morpheus8 Story: No More Contouring My Cheeks, with Lifted, Firmer Skin

Published Updated 3 min read

Key takeaways

Morpheus8 case: fat on the lower face gave a squarish face shape, HIFU and thread lifts had limited effect, and she's afraid of pain. She had Morpheus8 microneedling radiofrequency to refine her cheek contour. It hurt less than her previous treatments, and scabs two days later could be covered with makeup. Within days her lower-face contour had improved and she needed less contouring makeup.

"I'm Yu-Yi, a YouTuber, turning 26 this year. I'd had Q+ HIFU and a thread lift before, but neither worked very well, and I found both thread lifts and HIFU quite painful. I'd look forward to the results every day, but they were never as good as I'd imagined..."

I care a lot about my cheeks, the flesh around my mouth, because my face used to be pentagon-shaped and it bothered me when filming. I film with the regular camera, which shows your face exactly as it is, so my cheeks were what I wanted to improve.

I used to think nothing but hyaluronic acid worked on me

I always thought every aesthetic treatment (except hyaluronic acid) didn't work on my face. For injectables I'd only had Botox and hyaluronic acid, and for my cheeks I'd had HIFU and a thread lift. Hyaluronic acid worked right away, but Botox, HIFU and threads didn't seem to do anything for me. A few days after Morpheus8, when I took photos before my follow-up, I could see quite a difference, and comparing with my recent videos, the difference is clear

Even people who are terrified of pain can handle Morpheus8

Because Morpheus8 is fairly new, I asked around before getting it. Friends who'd had it said, "It hurts less than Thermage, it's less of an ordeal, and the results are about the same as Thermage." I'd really wanted Thermage, but I'm too scared of pain, so when friends recommended Morpheus8, I decided on Morpheus8 radiofrequency.

On the day, the nurse told me it really would hurt, so I braced myself, and I couldn't accept it. But in reality it didn't, and it hurt less than everything I'd had before. I still screamed, but I think that was fear, because with the Botox and HIFU I'd had before, I always needed numbing cream plus ice and had to be completely numb before I could go through with it.

Friends and fans noticed my facial contours improved

My face wasn't big to begin with, but I was self-conscious about my cheeks, so my makeup focused on contouring with heavier shading. I asked coworkers if they thought my cheeks looked wide, and they all said yes. But after Morpheus8, my makeup focuses less on contouring; even I feel I don't need as much shading on the sides. Friends I asked also said my face has improved.

Two days after Morpheus8 I happened to have a fan meetup. My face still had some scabs, but makeup covered them. That day fans told me straight out that my face looked smaller, since they knew I'd had Morpheus8. I didn't feel my face looked smaller right after the treatment, but when the video of the meetup came out, I could see my face was smaller than before.

Affordable with clear results: if you're tempted, act now

Compared with the HIFU, thread lift and even Thermage I'd considered, Morpheus8 is relatively good value. I've tried it and think it's great. After the treatment the beautician also gave me a face mask and massage, and I fell asleep because it was so comfortable.

If you're still on the fence about Morpheus8, I sincerely recommend NAISS CLINIC, because their doctors are very professional and the nurses are very gentle. So don't hesitate: if you're tempted, act now!

(Bonus)

NAISS CLINIC's Botox is the least painful Botox I've ever had. The doctor injected really quickly. Every Botox I'd had before hurt a lot!
