The patient is prepared: photos, informed consent, marking of areas, etc.
The Morpheus8 tips cannot be fully submerged in the liquid to avoid electrical shorts.

Slight to moderate edema (swelling) and a mild to moderate sunburn sensation are also common post treatment and may last 1-3 days. Skin may crust and peel for 2-7 days depending on treatment settings.
