While a tummy tuck can contour the abdomen and remove excess skin after pregnancy or weight loss, for the right patients, a nonsurgical approach may be all that’s needed. Morpheus8 RF microneedling is a safe, effective treatment that stimulates the body’s natural healing process to firm and renew the skin. Learn more about Morpheus8 for stomach contouring below.
Morpheus8 Body Treatments
Microneedling is often associated only with facial skin tightening, but Morpheus8 is a safe and effective nonsurgical treatment for full-body skin resurfacing, skin tightening, and scar reduction. Morpheus8 takes microneedling to another level by combining it with radiofrequency (RF) energy. This enables it to penetrate deeper into the skin if necessary—up to 8 millimetres (which is why the name is Morpheus8). Microneedling alone targets skin to a depth of .5 to 2 mm, at most.
The RF energy causes the skin to contract, leading to improvements in skin laxity and minor improvements in fat. If you are looking for more significant body contouring, nonsurgical SculpSure® can slim the area using heat. In addition to treating loose skin, Morpheus8 can improve the appearance of scars (including C-section scars), wrinkles, and discolouration.
What Happens During Morpheus8 Treatments?
During a Morpheus8 treatment on the stomach area, the handheld device creates tiny, controlled wounds to the skin’s upper layers at a depth that is customized for each patient. As the body repairs these injuries, it produces collagen and elastin—2 fundamental building blocks of smoother, tighter skin. Because Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive procedure, there is little need for downtime or recovery. Patients do need a series of treatments to see the best results.
