As Morpheus8 creates microchannels in the skin, the device also delivers thermal energy beneath the surface. This stimulates collagen production where you need it most.

Elevate Your Skin’s Health
For thin, loose, or uneven skin, surface treatments alone may not deliver the structural change you’re looking for. At the Michigan Center for Cosmetic Services, we use Morpheus8 to improve your skin beneath the surface, where collagen, elastin, and connective tissue influence firmness and smoothness. Morpheus8 helps to reverse existing signs of aging, or prevent signs of aging for natural maintenance.

With carefully mapped energy delivery and depth control, Morpheus8 can improve tone, texture, and contour. Visit our gallery to see how we deliver smoother, firmer-looking skin for our patients.

Rather than simply polishing the surface, Morpheus8 restructures tissue beneath the skin, encouraging your body to rebuild stronger, tighter support structures.
Dr. West adjusts needle depth and energy settings based on your skin’s thickness, treatment area, and goals. She tailors the entire approach to your unique needs.
Why Patients Love It
Tightening Without Surgery
You can achieve noticeable firmness and contour improvements without incisions or extended recovery time. Since results appear gradually, they’re often more natural-looking.
Controlled Experience
We apply a topical numbing cream beforehand to keep you comfortable throughout your session. Most patients describe the treatment as very tolerable.
Natural-Looking Results
Collagen production continues for months after your appointment using Morpheus8. Ann Arbor patients notice their skin gradually appears firmer, smoother, and more refined.

Frequently Asked Questions
While many patients think of the face first, versatility is one of the main benefits of Morpheus8. Ann Arbor patients often choose to treat their face, neck, and under-eye area, but Morpheus8 can also improve crepey skin on the abdomen, above the knees, thighs and buttocks.
Because Dr. West can precisely adjust needle depth, she customizes treatments for thinner or thicker skin with exacting control. This flexibility makes it possible to refine multiple areas with one advanced platform.
Traditional microneedling creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen production, but has no energy delivery. With Morpheus8, the added power of radiofrequency energy heats deeper layers of tissue to contract and remodel collagen more dramatically.
This dual-action approach allows Dr. West to address laxity and contour using depth settings that standard microneedling devices simply cannot reach, compared to Morpheus8. Ann Arbor patients experience more comprehensive rejuvenation when guided by surgical-level precision.
Some patients observe early skin improvements within 2 weeks as tissue contracts, but the most significant improvements develop gradually over 8+ weeks. Collagen remodeling is a biological process that unfolds over several weeks, and it can be accelerated by using Morpheus8.
Ann Arbor patients can see progressive smoothing and firming for up to 3 months after treatments, with prevention of signs of aging up to a year later. Because your skin is rebuilding its structural support, the improvements appear natural and evolve in a way that enhances your already beautiful features.
By delivering radiofrequency energy at strategic depths, Morpheus8 stimulates contraction in the fibroseptal network beneath the skin. This is the connective tissue framework that influences how tight or loose your lower face appears.
Dr. West can subtly sharpen the jawline and reduce early jowling using Morpheus8. Ann Arbor’s leading board-certified cosmetic surgeon evaluates facial structure comprehensively and treats each patient with their long-term goals in mind.
Morpheus8 can serve as a powerful foundation for structural rejuvenation, improving tone and firmness at a deeper level. Depending on your goals, Dr. West may also recommend neuromodulators, dermal fillers, laser resurfacing, or medical-grade skincare to address hyperpigmentation, volume loss, or dynamic wrinkles.
