Skin Tightening - Forma
A non-invasive radiofrequency treatment to tighten skin and naturally stimulate collagen production.
What is Skin Tightening?
Skin Tightening is a category of non-surgical aesthetic procedures aimed at improving skin firmness and texture. Over the years, and due to factors such as sun exposure, genetics, and weight fluctuations, the production of collagen and elastin decreases, resulting in laxity and the appearance of wrinkles. Thus, the goal of Skin Tightening is to stimulate the body to produce these essential proteins again, restoring the skin’s youthful and healthy appearance. This process is fundamental because it directly addresses the cause of laxity, and for this reason, the results are so natural and long-lasting.
Skin Tightening with Forma is indicated for:
Mild to moderate skin laxity
Reducing fine lines, wrinkles
Improving skin firmness, texture
Non-surgical facial rejuvenation
Body contouring and tightening
The Procedure: How Does Skin Tightening with Forma Work?
To perform Skin Tightening, our clinic uses the Forma platform, a state-of-the-art radiofrequency technology that promotes deep and uniform heating of the skin’s layers. The procedure is quite safe and comfortable because the Forma applicator has precise real-time temperature control.
The process works as follows:
Application: First, a conductive gel is applied to the area to be treated. Then, the professional glides the Forma applicator over the skin in continuous, smooth motions.
Controlled Heating: The applicator emits radiofrequency energy that penetrates the dermal layers, heating the tissue to an optimal and controlled temperature. This heating is essential, but it is kept at a level that ensures patient comfort throughout the session.
Collagen Stimulation: The heat generated causes the immediate contraction of existing collagen fibres and, more importantly, stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin in the following weeks. Thus, the body begins a natural process of skin restructuring and firming.
The treatment is versatile and can be applied to various areas of the face and body, including the forehead, lower eyelids, nasolabial folds, jowls, neck, arms, and abdomen.
The Benefits of the Procedure
Opting for Skin Tightening with Forma technology offers a series of significant advantages because it combines effectiveness, safety, and comfort. The benefits are noticed progressively and naturally.
Improved Firmness and Elasticity: The main benefit is, without a doubt, the increase in skin firmness. The production of new collagen results in denser, more elastic skin, and for this reason, the overall appearance is rejuvenated.
Reduction of Wrinkles and Fine Lines: The procedure visibly smooths wrinkles and fine lines because the skin becomes smoother and more uniform with the new collagen structure.
Immediate and Progressive Results: Although the full lifting effect is observed after a few weeks, many patients report an improvement in their skin’s appearance right after the first session, but the results continue to evolve positively.
Non-Invasive and Painless Procedure: Skin Tightening with Forma requires no cuts, needles, or recovery time. The patient can resume their normal activities immediately after the session, thus, the treatment easily fits into any routine.
Proven Safety: Forma technology is approved by regulatory bodies and has a temperature control system that ensures patient safety, preventing any risk of burns.

FAQ - Skin Tightening with Forma
Is the Skin Tightening treatment with Forma painful?
No. Most patients describe the treatment as a comfortable and relaxing experience, similar to a hot stone massage. The Forma temperature control system ensures that the skin reaches the ideal heat for collagen stimulation, but without causing pain or discomfort.
How many sessions are needed to see results?
The number of sessions can vary according to the degree of laxity and each patient’s goals. Generally, we recommend a protocol of 6 to 8 sessions, performed weekly. Thus, it is possible to build a solid and lasting result because the collagen stimulation is done consistently.
Who can undergo the Skin Tightening procedure?
Skin Tightening with Forma is indicated for people with mild to moderate skin laxity who desire an improvement in firmness and facial or body contour. It is an excellent option for those seeking rejuvenation results without resorting to plastic surgery, but an assessment with our specialist is essential to confirm the indication.
Is there any recovery time after the session?
There is no recovery time. The skin may show slight redness immediately after the procedure, which usually disappears within a few hours. The patient can return to their daily activities immediately, and this is a major advantage of the treatment.
Are the results of Skin Tightening permanent?
The results are long-lasting because the procedure stimulates the body’s own natural collagen production. However, the natural aging process continues. To maintain long-term results, we recommend periodic maintenance sessions, as well as adopting a healthy lifestyle and daily skin care.
