Commonly treated areas include: 

Forehead | Crows Feet | Upper and Lower Eyelids | Nasolabail Folds | Jowls | Smile lines Neck | Knees | Lower Abdomen 

Whether you're looking to firm up sagging skin or enhance your natural contours, Forma delivers powerful, long-lasting results with minimal discomfort. 

Most people find Forma as a hot stone massage, making it the perfect “lunch time lift”.

 RESULTS 

Over time patients typically notice a reduction in the folds of their skin leading to a smoother contour of the treated area. Textural irregularities will even out and sagging skin will appear more toned.

  1. Skin Tightening and Firming: One of the primary benefits of Forma is its ability to tighten and lift sagging skin. Whether it's the jawline, neck, or other areas, many clients experience a firmer, more youthful look as the treatment stimulates collagen production, which leads to tighter skin over several weeks.
     

  2. Smoothing of Fine Lines and Wrinkles: As the skin's collagen and elastin levels increase, fine lines and wrinkles often soften and diminish. While Forma is not as aggressive as invasive procedures, it can noticeably reduce the appearance of wrinkles, especially those around the eyes, mouth, and forehead.
     

  3. Improved Skin Texture and Tone: With regular treatments, clients often report smoother, more even-toned skin. The collagen boost helps to improve skin texture, reducing the appearance of rough patches, and giving the skin a healthy glow.
     

  4. Enhanced Contours: Forma can help redefine areas that have lost volume or elasticity, like the jawline, under the chin, and cheeks.
     

Long-Lasting Effects: While the results are gradual, they are also long-lasting. Many clients enjoy the benefits for several months following a treatment series with occasional maintenance treatments to prolong results.

 WHAT TO EXPECT 

Prior to your first treatment, your clinician will consult with you to assess your suitability for Forma and discuss any concerns or questions you may have.

During the treatment, an ultrasound transmission gel will be applied to the treatment area. There is no need for analgesia and the treatment is extremely tolerable, you will feel warmth on the skins layers which some describe as a “hot stone massage” feeling.

The treatment typically takes around 30 to 45minutes, depending on the area being treated. For larger areas, like the abdomen or thighs, it may take a bit longer.

There is no downtime and you can resume your normal activities immediately. Afterwards you may experience a little redness, swelling and tingling which usually resolves within a few hours. Gradual results will appear over the following weeks. Most clients see improvements after 2-3 sessions with optimal results developing over a few months.

 HOW IT WORKS 

Forma is a cutting-edge, non-invasive skin treatment that utilises advanced radio frequency (RF) technology to target the deeper layers of the skin and stimulate collagen production. The device delivers controlled RF energy through the skin, specifically targeting the dermis without damaging the outer layers. 

As the RF energy is absorbed by the tissue, it heats the skin to an optimal temperature, typically between 40°C to 42°C (104°F to 108°F). This controlled heating promotes the production of new collagen and elastin fibers, which are essential for maintaining skin’s strength, elasticity, and firmness.

The thermal feedback system built into the Forma device continuously monitors and adjusts the temperature to ensure consistent energy delivery, while a cooling mechanism protects the surface of the skin, keeping the treatment comfortable and safe. The procedure encourages the remodelling of existing collagen, resulting in tighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin. 

Forma's ability to target deeper layers of tissue with precision makes it effective in treating areas with mild to moderate skin laxity, fine lines, and wrinkles, as well as improving skin texture and tone. With minimal discomfort and no downtime, Forma provides gradual, natural-looking results as collagen production continues to increase over the course of several weeks.
