Pregnancy, childbirth, weight loss, or simply the natural aging process can cause the skin to become loose and lose its youthful bounce. This, paired with textural irregularities and excess pockets of fat, can be frustrating changes in once-youthful and contoured bodies. But these changes don’t have to be permanent–and they don’t always necessitate surgery. Morpheus8™ Body is a non-surgical solution for skin tightening, contouring, and toning with little recovery and downtime.
At Capitis Medical & Aesthetics, Dr. Crose and our medical team are committed to helping patients find aesthetic and internal wellness solutions without the need for invasive procedures. Rather than undergoing surgery, Morpheus8™ Body can help tighten skin laxity, improve texture, and induce collagen production for long-lasting results.
What Is Morpheus8™ Body?
Morpheus8™ Body combines fractional radiofrequency (RF) with microneedling to stimulate collagen production and break up adipose tissue, resulting in fat disruption and skin tightening for multiple areas of the body. Utilizing a similar technology as Morpheus8™ for the face, Morpheus8™ Body is remodeled to reach deeper levels of tissue and cover a larger surface area, making this an effective non-surgical solution to common signs of aging throughout the body.
The device features gold-plated microneedles that can reach 8 millimeters into the tissue, delivering fractional 3D Smart Frame and Burst technology to restructure adipose tissue, while the heat from RF energy stimulates collagen production and helps promote skin contraction.
What Are the Benefits of Morpheus8™ Body?
Morpheus8™ Body is a non-surgical solution for many age-related concerns, and it is safe for all skin types to effectively treat:
- Loose, sagging skin
- Fat in the abdomen, flanks, thighs, buttocks, above the knees, upper arms, and more
- Stretch marks and scars
- The appearance of cellulite
- Textural issues
Unlike other microneedling treatments, Morpheus8™ Body is specifically designed for the needs of larger areas of the body, on both soft and bony areas, with deeper penetration for more substantial results.
How Long Is Morpheus8™ Body Recovery?
Morpheus8™ Body is a non-surgical, minimally invasive treatment for skin tightening and fat disruption. The technology is designed to be gentle during treatment and less damaging for an easier recovery period. Most patients are able to return to normal activities immediately following their Morpheus8™ Body procedure.
You may feel flushed and warm or experience some redness around the treatment area due to the heat generated by RF energy. This should dissipate shortly after treatment.
How Much Do Morpheus8™ Body Treatments Cost?
Each Morpheus8™ Body treatment is unique to the patient and their needs. Therefore, the cost of Morpheus8™ Body in San Diego will vary depending on the number and size of treatment areas and if you have combined your session with any other treatments. Once we have created a custom treatment plan for you, we will be happy to provide an accurate cost estimate.
When Will I See the Results of My Morpheus8™ Body Treatment?
Part of the treatment involves prompting the body to produce more collagen, which repairs damaged tissues and skin and increases youthful plumpness. However, collagen takes some time to build up in the body, so most patients will not see initial results until one week following the treatment, with full results visible after 3 months.
Am I a Candidate for Morpheus8™ Body Treatments?
Morpheus8™ Body is ideal for healthy patients who are interested in tightening loose skin throughout the body, reducing the appearance of cellulite, and reducing pockets of fat for more taught, smooth contours.
This non-surgical treatment is best for those with moderate skin tightening concerns who do not wish to undergo invasive surgery.

How Are Morpheus8™ Body Treatments Performed?
After your comprehensive consultation with your experienced Morpheus8™ provider, you will be ready for treatment. During the session, your provider will adjust the depth of the needles precisely to where you need them, as determined by the treatment area, the level of necessary revision, and your goals for treatment.
As the needles penetrate deep tissues, RF energy is delivered at multiple depths in both radial and vertical patterns, which allows for shorter treatment time and less skin injury.
Morpheus8™ treatments can improve the skin and underlying tissue of any face and body area.
