Morpheus8 in abdomen and flanks to improve definition? (Photos)

Hello and thank you for your question! Based just on. Your pictures, I think the opinions you have received are correct. I think you would have a great result with either Morpheus or Bodytite. Some patients even choose to do both. Bodytite has three steps: 1. Skin tightening and fat melting internally and externally with the Bodytite hand piece that is inserted through a very tiny incision. This is achieved my meeting internal and external temperatures that are monitored by the machine and the practitioner performing the procedure, 2. Liposuction of fat deposits, and 3. External skin tightening by Morpheus. This procedure yields great results. The results of lipo can be seen once the swelling goes down in a few days and the skin tightening results will continue to improve over a few months. Some patients elect to have more Morpheus treatments afterward for continued skin tightening, but it is not required. Hopefully you find this helpful. Good luck!

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,

Thanks for your inquiry and pictures, and yes I think Morpheus 8 can be effective in tightening your skin and even minimizing a little fat on your abdomen--best of luck.

Hello Adam77, thank you very much for your questions regarding Morpheus8. I believe Morpheus8 would be the best option for your abdomen. Liposuction is ideal for areas of small fatty deposits. On the pictures you provided, I do not see any areas a fatty deposits. Instead, I see loose skin. Often, loose skin is treated with Morpheus8. As you know from your experience on the neck and chin, the Morpheus 8 can yield excellent results. Since you have achieved excellent Morpheus8 results on your chin and neck, I would suggest you proceed with the abdomen. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen.
