What is Radiofrequency Skin Tightening with Forma?

Radiofrequency skin tightening with Forma is a non-surgical cosmetic technique that utilizes radiofrequency energy to heat the skin’s deeper layers, promoting collagen and elastin production. This process leads to tighter, smoother skin and a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, offering a rejuvenated appearance. Forma is suitable for all skin types and commonly applied to the face and neck, providing a safe and effective alternative to surgical procedures—such as facelift and neck lift—for achieving youthful skin.

What Are the Benefits of Forma RF Skin Tightening?

Forma RF skin tightening offers patients numerous benefits, including:

Stimulates Collagen Production: Enhances skin elasticity by promoting new collagen formation.
Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Smoothes the skin, reducing common signs of aging such as lines and wrinkles.

How Does Forma RF Treatment Work?

Forma RF skin tightening utilizes radiofrequency (RF) energy to heat the skin’s deeper layers, stimulating collagen production and promoting improved skin elasticity. During the procedure, an applicator is expertly applied to the skin, and targeted RF energy safely penetrates the dermis, stimulating the skin’s natural healing process without damaging the surface tissues. Suitable for virtually any skin type, Forma offers a comfortable, no-downtime solution for achieving tighter, more youthful-looking skin across various body areas.

How Long Do the Results of Forma RF Skin Tightening Last?

Forma RF is designed to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production, meaning that results are long-lasting and continue to improve over time. That said, achieving optimal outcomes typically requires a series of treatments, followed by periodic maintenance sessions. After a consultation, Dr. Contogiannis can assess your goals and discuss your lifestyle habits to help you make the most of your Forma RF skin tightening treatment plan.

How Much Does Forma Skin Tightening Cost?

The average cost of a Forma treatment session ranges around $300-600*. That said, the precise cost of treatment varies based on numerous factors, including the size and number of areas being treated.
