Morpheus/Aesthetics
Morpheus is basically a way to take your skin back in time, creating a more youthful look, naturally. By using a combination of radio frequency and heat energy, it provokes the body to restart its production of collagen, which was slowed down back in your early thirties. Collagen is what created your beautiful youthful skin, so by restarting the collagen production, your overall appearance starts to reclaim the youthful look you used to have before the kids/husband/wife/job/etc. Wrinkles fade away, complexion clears up, and jawlines return. And there are no chemicals or foreign materials involved, we just figured out how to get the collagen back; and with it your youthful skin. Bottom line: you still look like you, just a little bit younger.
