With the popularity of energy delivered microneedling device’s ability to stimulate proteins like collagen and elastin on the face and neck, their regenerative capabilities are now being offered all over the body with the evolution of our gold standard technologies. At PFRANKMD, we offer Virtue RF, Vivace, and Morpheus 8 devices – each with their own unique applications to suit each patient’s various needs throughout the face and body.
MORPHEUS8
While microneedling on the face is great for collagen stimulation, fine lines, texture, and acne scars, body microneedling addresses deeper concerns of cellulite, skin tightening, stretch-marks, and scars. The newer platforms, Virtue RF Deep and Morpheus 8 Body target large treatment areas in a short period of time after application of topical anesthesia. These new platforms are adjustable and customizable for skin type, depth of concern, area on the body, and patient comfort.
Standard microneedling on the face can reach a depth of 3.5mm, whereas body microneedling can achieve a depth of up to 7mm deep. Under topical anesthesia, Virtue RF Deep treatments are often performed in a series of 3 monthly treatments each with a few days of redness as downtime. Combined with other technologies such as ultherapy, BBL hero, Fraxel and EMSCULPT and EMTONE, we can curate and synergize outcomes of non-invasive treatments with various clinical desires.
Morpheus 8 Body microneedling is also a great addition to minimally invasive surgical procedures performed under local anesthesia such as microcannular liposuction. With injected anesthesia allowing for more aggressive and more effective treatments, devices such as Morpheus 8 Body are performed for additional skin tightening, texture, and laxity.
Areas commonly treated include abdomen for loose crepey skin post-pregnancy or weight loss, above the knees for fine lines and laxity, thighs for cellulite, and inner arms for crepey, textural concerns.
A consultation with one of our aesthetic healthcare professionals will determine which technology is ideal for you.

On this Derm Couch, I discuss the FaceTite procedure, a minimally invasive treatment that uses radio frequency and ultrasound technology to reduce neck fat and tighten skin. It’s an excellent option for people in their late 30s to early 50s who want surgical-like results without full surgery, offering a ‘bridge’ approach to cosmetic enhancement.

This young woman wanted to enhance her jawline and improve the lack of definition under her neck. We used a combination of ultrasound-assisted microliposuction to melt fat, along with advanced radiofrequency skin tightening using FaceTite and Morpheus8 technologies. Our goal was to achieve a natural yet significant improvement in her jawline and neck contour, while improving her skin tightness. All of this was accomplished with minimal downtime and without the need for major surgery.

FaceTite is a simple, safe, and effective procedure that provides a dramatic improvement in skin laxity, texture, and heaviness on the jawline and neck, without the need for invasive face-lifting surgery.
FaceTite utilizes minimally invasive radiofrequency energy and is performed under local anesthesia.
Results can be seen immediately, with optimal results typically visible between 1 and 3 months of treatment.
Any part of the lower face and neck with saggy or crepey skin can be treated. This includes double chins, jowls, and loose, thin skin.

Radiofrequency microneedling is an effective treatment for skin conditions like festoons. It has the ability to deliver targeted heat and tighten skin with minimal downtime, despite recent FDA warnings circulating on social media.

Ellacor uses fractional microcoring technology, a first-of-its-kind, minimally invasive treatment that physically removes tiny micro-cores of skin to improve texture, firmness, and tightness. By precisely extracting thousands of microscopic skin columns, the surrounding tissue contracts and heals naturally, creating a smoother, tighter appearance without surgery or visible scarring.
Unlike traditional energy-based microneedling, Ellacor does not use heat, radiofrequency, or laser energy to stimulate collagen. Instead, it achieves actual skin removal and tightening through mechanical precision, reducing laxity and fine lines more effectively and with less downtime.
This scarless skin removal technology can be used on multiple body areas, including the face, neck, and décolletage, offering patients a powerful alternative to more invasive procedures as the demand for natural-looking, nonsurgical rejuvenation continues to grow.

Ellacor stands apart in the landscape of skin-tightening treatments with its innovative method of fractional micro-coring. Unlike microneedling, which creates micro-punctures to trigger healing, Ellacor actually removes tiny columns of skin, directly addressing areas of laxity. This makes it an appealing choice for patients who want to avoid—or delay—surgical procedures.
It’s also an excellent option for those who have previously had surgery but are left with residual sagging or excess skin. Ellacor can refine and enhance those results without requiring further invasive intervention.
This versatile treatment can be applied to multiple areas of both the face and body, allowing for tailored skin tightening solutions that address specific patient concerns. As a result, Ellacor serves as a compelling alternative to traditional surgical methods, providing a way to achieve firmer, smoother skin with minimal downtime and discomfort.

Nurse Jen provides an in-depth overview of the Ultherapy Prime device, an innovative advancement in non-surgical skin lifting. This updated technology enhances treatment with improved visualization of tissue layers and significantly reduced treatment times compared to earlier versions of Ultherapy.
The procedure uses micro-focused ultrasound energy to penetrate deep into the skin, stimulating the natural production of collagen and elastin—the proteins responsible for firmness and elasticity.
At PFRANKMD, Ultherapy is used on multiple areas where skin laxity is most common, including the lower face, neck, submentum (under the chin), décolletage, abdomen (for patients not candidates for a tummy tuck), and above the knees.
Nurse Jen particularly enjoys treating the abdominal area, where Ultherapy can be combined with Morpheus8 or microneedling for enhanced results. This synergistic approach not only improves tightness but also refines texture and overall skin quality.
With its versatility and efficiency, the Ultherapy Prime device represents a major advancement in non-invasive aesthetics—making it a go-to option for patients seeking natural lifting and tightening without surgery or downtime.

One week surgical follow-up from the FaceTite procedure. FaceTite is a MicroLiposuction technique that targets the jawline and neck area, helping patients with genetic or weight-related fat pockets under the chin.
The procedure was done under local anesthesia, took an hour, and had a quick recovery. A week later, this patient is very happy with the initial results!
The full impact will be seen in 1-2 months as swelling decreases. This was a great option for this patient, as non-invasive treatments were not enough, but this minimally-invasive procedure provided the surgical result she was looking for.

Tumescent microlipo is a highly refined, minimally invasive technique that uses very small, delicate instruments to gently and precisely remove fat. This meticulous approach allows for superior control, smoother contours, and minimal trauma to surrounding tissue—resulting in less bruising, reduced downtime, and a more comfortable, accelerated recovery.
At PFRANKMD, we often combine our tumescent microlipo procedure with advanced internal skin-tightening technologies such as FaceTite, BodyTite, and Morpheus8 surgical microneedling. These synergistic modalities not only sculpt the face and body but also stimulate collagen production and improve skin laxity from the inside out—providing natural-looking, long-lasting results without the need for traditional surgery.
I often say, “It’s not about looking different. It’s about looking like the best version of yourself.” By focusing on artistry, precision, and comprehensive aesthetic care, our microlipo technique is ideal for contouring small, targeted areas—even in patients with low body fat—while delivering holistic, pro-aging outcomes that align with our philosophy of aesthetic longevity and individualized care.
