Uses radiofrequency (RF) energy delivered through micro-needles to the deeper layers.
Morpheus8 is a revolutionary minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that utilizes radiofrequency (RF) technology to provide deep tissue remodeling. By combining the mechanical benefits of microneedling with the thermal power of radiofrequency (RF) energy, this device reaches deeper levels than traditional laser resurfacing.
The overall purpose of Morpheus8 is to stimulate a robust healing process that results in enhanced skin tightening and fat contouring. Because it can be adjusted to reach different layers of the skin, it is a highly versatile treatment capable of treating sagging skin on the face, neck, and body. It tightens loose skin, reduces subdermal fat, and restores skin elasticity by triggering the body's natural healing response.
Dr. Stephens personally administers Morpheus8 for the body in Baton Rouge. The procedure is relatively painless because the needles are very sharp and fine, so you won’t feel tugging or pulling. However, a topical numbing cream is applied to the treatment area to ensure comfort.
When the procedure begins, you might feel a slight prickling sensation followed by warmth as the device’s needles pass over your skin. The cutting-edge technology of Morpheus8 provides controlled and consistent heat delivery for safe and uniform results.
While many know Morpheus8 for its facial benefits, its most transformative power lies in body sculpting and deep tissue remodeling. By reaching depths of up to 8mm, this advanced treatment bypasses the skin's surface to target the subdermal tissue where stubborn contours and skin laxity reside. Morpheus8 Body is a premier non-surgical skin rejuvenation solution for those who want to refine their figure without the scars or recovery time of invasive procedures.
Dr. Stephens utilizes the specialized Morpheus8 Body handpiece to target:
Morpheus8 Body has a unique large-surface tip consisting of 40 thin gold-coated microneedles. These microneedles deliver radiofrequency energy to large areas quickly and efficiently, such as:
While almost anyone seeking a more youthful appearance can benefit from radiofrequency (RF) technology, the ideal candidate for Morpheus8 Body is looking for a non-surgical skin rejuvenation solution to refine their figure. This versatile treatment is specifically designed for individuals with mild to moderate skin laxity or stubborn pockets of fat that remain despite a healthy lifestyle. Unlike some other treatments, Morpheus8 is a safe and effective treatment for all skin tones and skin types.
While most patients can resume their normal activities within 24-48 hours, this estimate varies based on the following:
There is little to no discomfort after Morpheus8 Body treatment. You may experience some of the following mild side effects:
In terms of results, you will notice improvement within the first week. After four weeks, your results will progressively improve, and full results will develop in approximately three months. We offer a full suite of nonsurgical solutions to help you achieve the rejuvenation you desire, including SofWave.
You will begin to see an initial improvement in your skin texture within the first week following your procedure. However, because Morpheus8 works by promoting collagen and elastin production deep within the subdermal layers, the most dramatic body sculpting effects emerge over time. Most patients observe a significant reduction in sagging skin and a smoother, more well-toned appearance after approximately four weeks.
Your results will continue to improve for up to three months as the subdermal tissue fully remodels and the body's natural healing response strengthens the skin’s architecture. For optimal results in larger treatment areas like the abdomen or thighs, Dr. Stephens typically recommends a series of three to four treatments. These long-term noticeable improvements in skin elasticity and fat contouring can last for a year or more, especially when supported by proper skincare and a healthy lifestyle.
Dr. J. Anthony Stephens is a board-certified plastic surgeon who treats Morpheus8 as a precision body sculpting tool rather than a standard medspa service. This distinction is vital because Morpheus8 Body reaches depths of up to 8mm—the deeper levels where fat and structural tissue reside—requiring a surgeon’s profound knowledge of anatomy to navigate safely.
Our practice offers a physician-led, concierge experience where Dr. Stephens personally oversees your treatment plan. We are committed to providing honest guidance on how radiofrequency (RF) energy can best achieve your body contouring goals.
With the application of a topical numbing cream, most patients find the treatment very tolerable. You may feel a sensation of warmth or a light prickling, but the sharp, fine needles are designed to move through the skin with minimal discomfort.
Regular microneedling creates micro-injuries to improve the skin's surface. Morpheus8 adds radiofrequency (RF) energy, which allows it to reach much deeper levels and actually remodel fat and subdermal tissue, providing significantly more skin tightening.
The benefits of Morpheus8 are long-lasting because the treatment changes the actual structure of your subdermal layers. While the natural aging process continues, many patients enjoy their Morpheus8 results for 12 to 18 months before needing a touch-up.
The cost varies depending on the size of the treated areas and the number of sessions in your treatment plan. We offer flexible financing through CareCredit®, PatientFi®, and Cherry® to make your skin rejuvenation goals accessible.
