I don't think it's composite, it wasn't in alpha. At least when it came to adjusting height. Also when you select a different face, the body model for female characters gets deformed.

If SE are going as far as re-using armor models (with different textures/blend-able parts) to save resources, I really doubt they would load a different model for each character template - that would be a waste of resources.
