Advanced RF Microneedling to Strengthen Thin, Aging Body Skin
Morpheus8 for Crepey Skin (Arms, Knees, Abdomen)
Crepey skin is one of the most frustrating skin concerns — especially on the arms, knees, and abdomen, where skin naturally thins, stretches, and loses elasticity over time. Unlike loose skin alone, crepey skin involves loss of structure, thickness, and resilience, making it difficult to treat with creams or surface-level procedures.
At Denver Dream Med Spa, we use Morpheus8 Body as a medical-grade solution for crepey skin by strengthening the skin from within — not masking it on the surface.
What Is Crepey Skin?
Crepey skin gets its name from its thin, wrinkled, paper-like texture, similar to crepe paper. It often appears:
Fine and lax
Fragile or loose
Wrinkled when skin is moved
More noticeable with aging or weight changes
Crepey skin is most common in areas where skin is thinner and exposed to movement and sun.
Why Crepey Skin Develops
Crepey skin is caused by a combination of factors, including:
Collagen and elastin loss
Skin thinning with age
Sun damage
Rapid weight loss or Ozempic
Hormonal changes
Chronic dehydration
Genetics
Once skin loses structural support, topical treatments alone cannot restore firmness.
Why Creams Don’t Fix Crepey Skin
While moisturizers can temporarily improve hydration, they:
Do not penetrate deep enough to rebuild collagen
Cannot tighten stretched skin fibers
Do not address skin thinning
True improvement requires collagen remodeling beneath the skin, which is where Morpheus8 works.
How Morpheus8 Improves Crepey Skin
Morpheus8 Body combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to remodel skin at deeper levels.
For crepey skin, Morpheus8:
Stimulates new collagen production
Thickens thin, fragile skin
Tightens lax tissue
Improves texture and firmness over time
Results are gradual and natural, because they come from your body rebuilding skin structure.
