The postpartum abdomen. The loose skin after a meaningful weight loss. The crepey skin on the upper arms that started showing up in your late forties. The skin on the inner thigh that has lost its elasticity. The areas of the body where you can see the skin has changed and there is no topical that is going to bring it back.
Morpheus8 Body is the version of the treatment built for these areas. It uses the same fundamental technology as the face platform, microneedling combined with fractional radiofrequency, but at a depth and intensity that is appropriate for the thicker, larger surface area of body skin. The skin remodels itself over the months that follow each session: more collagen, more elastin, firmer texture, a smoother surface.
Most clients who come in for this treatment have a specific area in mind. The abdomen and flanks together are by far the most common request. Upper arms are second. Inner thighs are third. We treat all of these regularly, and the plan is similar regardless of area: a series of sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, full result visible 6 to 9 months from the start.
What makes our Morpheus8 Body treatment different
Morpheus8 Body uses a dedicated body-depth applicator with longer needles and higher energy than the face platform. This is the difference that makes the body version actually work on thicker skin. Some practices try to treat the body with face settings and the result is invisible. The body applicator delivers the energy at the depth where body skin actually remodels, which is why the visible firming is meaningful.
You meet the same person every visit. Gaby plans your sessions, performs each one, and adjusts as she learns how your specific skin responds. By session two she already knows what to refine. This is the reason multi-session plans look better at ABL than at higher-volume practices where you see whoever is on shift.
The device we use is the original Morpheus8 system. There are competing microneedling RF devices and they are not all the same. The published clinical results that made Morpheus8 well known are tied to this specific device and to the body-depth applicator specifically. We are not interested in a cheaper alternative if the visible result is not the same.
Every body contouring treatment at ABL is physician-supervised. Dr. Eric Guy MD is on site and is responsible for the medical side of the practice. He is available for any client who has a medical question about how the treatment interacts with their own situation, particularly post-pregnancy or post-weight-loss clients who often have other things going on.
What to expect at your Morpheus8 Body session
You arrive about 45 minutes early so Gaby can apply a topical numbing cream to the area being treated. The body version of the treatment needs more numbing time than the face version because the area is larger and the needles are longer. You sit or recline in the treatment room while it works.
The treatment itself takes about 60 to 90 minutes depending on how much area is being covered. The abdomen and flanks together are usually closer to 90 minutes. You will feel pressure and warmth and hear the device working. The body skin tends to be less sensitive than the face skin, but the deeper energy delivery is noticeable. Gaby checks in throughout and slows down if you need her to.
When the treatment is finished the area will be flushed and slightly swollen. Some clients have small dot patterns visible for two to three days. The body version sometimes leaves slightly more visible marks than the face version, but they are easy to cover with normal clothing.
Aftercare and what changes over time
For the first 24 to 48 hours you skip exercise, hot showers, sauna, and tight compressive clothing on the treated area. From day two you can shower normally and apply the recovery moisturizer we send you home with. Loose clothing is more comfortable for the first few days, especially after an abdominal treatment.
Most clients are back to normal activity within three to five days. By the end of the first week the visible marks are gone. The first visible firming usually shows up two to three weeks after a session. The deeper collagen remodeling continues for three to six months after each session.
With the standard three-session plan the full result is in place six to nine months from the start of treatment, and that result tends to hold for a year or more before maintenance is needed. Some clients add a fourth session for areas with more advanced laxity.
Sun protection on the treated area is essential during the remodeling window. The body skin is more reactive to UV during this time and any new sun damage will work against the result you are paying for.

Pricing and packages
Morpheus8 Body for large areas is $829 per session. Most clients do three sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Maintenance is typically a single session per year after the initial plan, depending on how the result is holding for you.
If you are looking at multiple body areas, Gaby will map them into a coherent plan at consultation rather than treating each one in isolation. Pricing is per session per area, and sometimes the best plan combines a Morpheus8 area with an Emsculpt area for a more complete result over the same season.
Our membership program is built for clients who plan to stay in ongoing care. Ask Gaby on your consult if it makes sense for the plan you have in mind.
Frequently asked questions
Does Morpheus8 Body hurt?
The treatment is comfortable for most clients because we apply topical numbing for about 45 minutes before starting. The sensation during treatment is pressure and warmth, with some areas feeling stronger than others depending on the depth being treated. Gaby checks in with you throughout and slows down if you need her to.
How many Morpheus8 Body sessions do I need?
The standard plan is three sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Clients with more advanced laxity, particularly after a significant weight loss or pregnancy, sometimes benefit from a fourth session. Gaby will give you a real assessment at your free consultation.
What is the downtime for Morpheus8 Body?
Most clients are back to normal activity within three to five days. The area is flushed and slightly swollen for the first 24 to 48 hours, with some small dot patterns visible for a couple of days. Loose clothing is more comfortable for the first few days. You skip exercise, hot showers, and sauna for the first 24 to 48 hours.
