If you’re looking for a non-surgical treatment to address cellulite, skin texture, and loose skin on certain areas of your body, we can help with Morpheus8™ for body in Austin.
How is Morpheus8 for Body different from Morpheus8 for the face?
While both treatments use radiofrequency microneedling, Morpheus8 for Body uses longer needles and deeper energy penetration to address the thicker skin and fat layers found in body areas. It’s specifically calibrated to contour and tighten larger treatment zones such as the thighs, abdomen, and arms.
Can Morpheus8 for Body be used after weight loss?
Yes, Morpheus8 for Body is an excellent option for individuals who have lost weight and want to improve the appearance of loose, crepey, or sagging skin. It helps tighten skin and smooth uneven textures without the need for surgery.

Absolutely. Many postpartum patients seek Morpheus8 to treat skin laxity, stretch marks, and mild fat accumulation in the abdomen and around C-section scars. It’s a great non-surgical solution for restoring confidence after pregnancy.
How soon can I return to work or daily activities after treatment?
Most patients can return to normal activities within 24 to 48 hours. However, activities that cause sweating or irritation to the treated area—like exercise or sauna use—should be avoided for a full week.
Does Morpheus8 for Body help with surgical scars?

What does Morpheus8 for Body feel like during treatment?
Thanks to the use of topical numbing cream and local anesthetic, most patients describe the treatment as mildly uncomfortable but tolerable. You may feel heat and pressure as the microneedles penetrate the skin and deliver radiofrequency energy.
Can Morpheus8 for Body be used on all skin tones?
Yes. One of the advantages of Morpheus8 is its safety across all skin types and tones. Its technology minimizes the risk of hyperpigmentation, which makes it suitable for a diverse range of patients.
How long do the results of Morpheus8 for Body last?
Results can last up to a year or more, especially with good skincare maintenance and healthy lifestyle habits. Periodic touch-up treatments every 6–12 months help preserve long-term improvements.
Are there any restrictions before a Morpheus8 for Body session?
Yes. To prepare for your session, avoid sun exposure, tanning, and the use of retinoids or exfoliants on the treatment area for several days beforehand. Your provider may also recommend avoiding blood-thinning medications if medically appropriate.
How does Morpheus8 for Body compare to surgical body contouring?
While not a substitute for procedures like liposuction or tummy tucks, Morpheus8 for Body offers a minimally invasive alternative with less downtime and no incisions. It’s ideal for patients with mild to moderate skin laxity and localized fat who aren’t ready for surgery.
