Article At A Glance

  • Sylfirm X and Morpheus8 are popular skin rejuvenation methods utilizing radiofrequency energy and micro-needling.
  • Sylfirm X offers faster results, less downtime, and a safer, less painful experience than Morpheus8.

Two of the most popular skin rejuvenation methods on the market today are Sylfirm X and Morpheus8. Our patients have many questions about these two treatment methods, like, “What are the Sylfirm X benefits?” and “What is better than Morpheus8, if anything?” So the team at Radiant A MedSpa is here with this article on Sylfirm X vs. Morpheus8 and which you should choose. 

Overview of Sylfirm X and Morpheus8

Sylfirm X is a non-surgical skin rejuvenation technique that utilizes radiofrequency energy and microneedling to stimulate skin cells and reverse signs of wear and aging. Patients use Sylfirm X to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, laugh lines, sagging skin, vascular pigmentation, and acne scars. 

Morpheus8 is a similar procedure using radio frequencies and microneedling to stimulate the skin’s natural healing and improve skin laxity. By making small injuries to the skin, Morpheus8 triggers natural healing processes that produce elastin and collagen. 

Morpheus8 Versus Sylfirm X

So when it comes to Sylfirm X vs. Morpheus8, which is better? Below are comparisons between the two treatment modalities across a range of categories. 

The Science Behind Sylfirm X and Morpheus8

Sylfirm X and Morpheus8 utilize radiofrequency microneedling to precisely target skin cells and stimulate their growth. Skin wrinkles and discoloration occurs when skin cells lose their elasticity and flexibility. Microneedling stimulates skin cells to produce collagen and elastin to improve skin appearance, color, volume, and flexibility. 

The main benefit of this procedure is it is non-invasive and causes the skin to have a natural healing response, improving the fidelity of the skin healing results. Microneedling can restore the skin’s appearance and also reduce the appearance of scarring from acne. 

Results Comparison Between Sylfirm X and Morpheus8

Between the two methods, Sylfirm X performs faster than Morpheus8, requiring less downtime and producing faster results. Sylfirm X also has more predictable and longer-lasting treatments, so patients need fewer sessions for complete results.

The main reason why Sylfirm X is superior is because of the more advanced microneedling radiofrequency technologies. The needling technique can reach the skin’s basement membrane to facilitate faster healing and more precise targeting. Sylfirm X uses more gold-plated needles than Morpheus 8, making it more effective. 

Safety Differences Between Sylfirm X and Morpheus8

Sylfirm X is safer than Morpheus8 and produces less pain and discomfort. Radiofrequency microneedling is already rough on the skin, but the more advanced technology of Sylfirm X makes it less stressful on the epidermis. Also, the faster treatment time means any pain or discomfort is shorter.

What to Expect During Sessions?

The typical Sylfirm X session takes about an hour. You will start by filling out a medical questionnaire where the technician will determine which level of treatment is best. The procedure occurs in the office, and the technician will first clean your skin to prevent infection.

Next, they will apply a local anesthetic to dull sensitivity before using the machine. The microneedling machine will make small, targeted injuries while releasing low-energy radio waves into the layers of the skin. The actual needling part of the procedure takes about 20 to 30 minutes. 

The last part of the procedure is the technician applying a growth solution to facilitate healing and soothe discomfort. Radiofrequency microneedling is a non-invasive, non-surgical technique, so it has few risks or side effects but can cause slight pain and discomfort that may last a few days. 

Anticipated Results From Sylfirm X and Morpheus

It takes about three to six months to start seeing the full results of microneedling sessions, but exact time frames depend on your skin’s condition and age. Most patients go through about four sessions. Each session will have about four to eight weeks between them to give the skin time to heal before the next session fully. 

Initial treatments can last up to a year, after which you can get regular touch-up treatments once a year to maintain the results. Sylfirm X results will last longer than Morpheus8 results, meaning you need fewer sessions. 

The Superpowers of Sylfirm X

Sylfirm X is the definitive microneedling technique famous for generating incredible anti-aging results. Now you can reverse the signs of aging and enjoy youthful, radiant skin again with minimal hassle. 

Maximizing Results While Reducing Pain

Sylfirm X provides superior treatment while also minimizing discomfort and pain. You can get the best results without the more arduous healing process from other microneedling procedures.
