Does Morpheus8 reduce abdomen fat?

The gold standard surgical treatment for reducing resistant fatty deposits is tumescent liposuction. However, new technology devices such as BodyTite and Morpheus8 Body (both deliver radiofrequency energy) have added another layer of treatment results. BodyTite tightens the connective tissue layers beneath the skin and Morpheus tightens the skin itself. Glad to help.

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

Best,

Hello and thank you for your question. Without a photograph it's tough to say if you'd be an ideal candidate for Morpheus8, however, based on your description you may benefit more from a fat reduction treatment. Although Morpheus8 can destroy a very small amount of fat, it is better used for Collagen production to tighten and lift the skin. Examples of treatments that can destroy a larger amount of fat are BodyTite or Coolsculpt. I recommend and in person evaluation with your local Expert Cosmetic Provider. They will assess your concern and determine the best treatment plan for you, good luck!

Morpheus8 is used to tighten and tone the skin. It is not designed for fat reduction. If you are wanting to address abdominal fatty pockets you may be a better candidate for liposuction or potentially a tummy tuck. See a board certified plastic surgeon near you to learn more.

Morpheus 8 is a skin tightening device. It is perfect for the face, neck, decolletage, arms, stomach, thighs, elbows, knees etc. For fat removal from an area like the abdomen, you need to do liposuction and use the Bodytite by Inmode followed by the Morpheus handle as a final complement to get that beautiful tight stomach.
