Tightens & Smooths Skin
At La Belle Vie
La Belle Vie now offers a state-of-the-art device called VOTIVA. VOTIVA is an FDA approved platform that employs radio frequency (RF) technologies for certain aesthetic applications. The platform has two systems, FORMA V and MORPHEUS 8.
What Is Morpheus8®?
Morpheus8 tightens and smooths skin. It is a next-generation micro-needling device that adds therapeutic levels of fractional radiofrequency (RF) energy to increase collagen growth and stimulate elastin formation in the deeper layers of your skin. The device can improve the appearance of:
- Loose and wrinkled skin, including the face, neck, abdomen, back, and arms
- Acne scars
- Stretch marks
- Enlarged pores
- Lines and creases
- Mild to moderate sagging jowls
Benefits of Morpheus8
- Stimulation of collagen formation which increases skin strength and firmness
- Increased elastin formation which causes skin to “spring” back into place after being stretched
- Uniform effect
- Safe for almost all skin types
- Little down-time or recovery time
What to Expect During Treatment
Morpheus8 treatments usually involve placing a numbing cream on the area(s) to be treated for about 60 minutes prior to the therapy. Treatment times vary depending on the size and location of the area to be treated, but are often about 45-60 minutes long. Afterward, the treated area may be slightly red, swollen or bruised for a few days. There may also be some mild soreness in the area for a short period. Bathtubs, hot tubs and swimming should be avoided for 3 days after treatment.
Optimal results can be achieved with a series of 3-6 treatment sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Treatment outcomes can vary depending on your skin’s texture, tone and laxity.
At La Belle Vie Plastic Surgery, cosmetic consultations are always complimentary. Let our highly trained staff determine if you are good candidate for Morpheus8 and develop a personalized treatment plan based on your concerns and desires!

Frequently asked questions
Learn everything you need to know before your Morpheus8.
Morpheus8 is a next-generation microneedling device that adds therapeutic levels of radiofrequency (RF) energy to boost collagen growth and stimulate elastin production in your skin. Increased collagen improves skin strength and tone, while elastin gives the skin the ability to “spring” back into place after being stretched. The result is improved skin tone, texture and overall appearance.
Morpheus8 can improve the appearance of:
- Sagging or loose skin
- Acne scars
- Poor skin texture
- Lines and creases
- Enlarged pores
- Stretch marks
The most commonly treated areas are the lower face, jowls and neck. However, ANY part of the body that exhibits wrinkles, loose skin, stretch marks or acne scarring can be treated.
At La Belle Vie Plastic Surgery, we do everything possible to ensure that your experience and treatments are as comfortable and as painless as possible. We apply a topical numbing cream to the area(s) to be treated with Morpheus8 about 60 minutes prior to being treated. Most patients only feel mild discomfort and a sensation of warmth during treatment, and a mild to moderate sunburn sensation for 1-3 days following treatment.
Following about 60 minutes of allowing the topical numbing cream to take effect, Morpheus8 treatment sessions usually last 45-60 minutes depending on the size of the area(s) to be treated.
Noticeable improvements can be seen about 3 months after completion of 3-6 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
There is usually some redness, swelling and mild discomfort in the treated areas for 1-3 days. Minor bruising can also occur. Typically the redness can be covered easily with makeup. More aggressive treatments may result in more prolonged swelling and redness.
Morpheus8 results are generally long lasting, but a single maintenance treatment once every 1-2 years is recommended.
Good for someone with healthy skin that needs tightening or lifting without surgical procedures. Contact us for a complimentary consultation with our licensed esthetician to see if Morpheus8 is a good treatment to fit your needs.
