It does not, there is nothing in a visual cue which will tell you that the suit has a herringbone lining, a Prada label, and a small tear on the inside right pocket, yet the perfect disguise is perfect, unless you put significant limitations on it.

In which case he had a limited version of Morph to begin with.

Something not enough GMs do is put in the appropriate limitations to make a RAW advantage fit their setting's power.

The system is a tool-kit with lots of knobs and dials to tune a power as needed, Morph without limitations is pretty damn powerful and fully accurate, no MRIs needed.
