115 pound weight loss - Will Morpheus8 work on my mid stomach area? (Photo)

A. Hi, thank you so much for sharing, and great question! I would suggest a Bodytite and Morpheus8 treatment combination for enhancing the appearance of your stomach.

BodyTite focuses on fat reduction by using radio-frequency to target and melt stubborn fat in the stomach, while also stimulating collagen and elastin to tighten the skin. This procedure is a minimally invasive office visit procedure, typically resulting in less downtime and a quicker recovery compared to traditional liposuction. The radio-frequency energy not only removes fat but also tightens the skin, addressing issues like sagging or loose skin, which is common in this area. Morpheus8 is an added bonus to do post treatment. It combines microneedling with radio-frequency energy, promoting collagen production and skin rejuvenation. This helps improve skin texture and elasticity by targeting deeper layers of the skin, Morpheus8 enhances the overall quality of the skin on the arms, making it look smoother and firmer.

The combined benefits include enhanced contouring that allows for comprehensive reshaping—BodyTite reduces fat while Morpheus8 tightens and rejuvenates the skin, resulting in a more toned and youthful appearance. Both treatments are minimally invasive, allowing for a shorter recovery period compared to more invasive procedures, making it easier to resume daily activities. Together, these treatments can offer long-lasting results.

Hello,
Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive treatment that combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen production, tighten skin, and improve texture. It may help if you have mild to moderate loose skin, not excessive overhang or folds. The primary concern is skin laxity, not large pockets of fat or heavily stretched skin. You’re looking for non-surgical tightening and some improvement in skin texture. However, Morpheus8 won’t remove excess skin like a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty). It’s not effective for significant overhang, deep stretch marks, or heavily damaged elastin from major weight loss. Results can be subtle and typically require multiple sessions (usually 3+), spaced several weeks apart, Bottom line, Morpheus8 might help tighten and improve the texture of your mid-stomach area if your loose skin isn’t too excessive. But for significant laxity or overhang after major weight loss, it likely won’t be enough on its own, and surgical options may be more appropriate. Have a great day!

Hello, Dailyn! I'm Landry - an aesthetician at Shah Facial Plastics located in the River North area of Chicago.

First off - congratulations on your weight loss! That’s an incredible achievement. A lot of clients in your position notice some loose skin around the stomach area, and Morpheus8 can definitely help, depending on the amount of laxity.

For mild to moderate looseness, it works really well to tighten the skin, improve texture, and stimulate collagen. It won’t remove excess skin, such as sagging or folding.

Most people need a series of 3 to 4 treatments spaced about a month apart, and the results build gradually over time. It’s also important to keep your weight stable and support your skin with good hydration and skincare.
