FORMA - RADIO FREQUENCY

Aesthetic machines are specialized equipment used in aesthetic medicine clinics to offer a range of non-surgical treatments designed to improve the appearance of the skin and body.

Here are some of the common treatments offered by aesthetic machines:

  • Skin rejuvenation: Use of lasers or radiofrequency to stimulate collagen production, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin texture and elasticity, and reduce pigmentation spots.
  • Body contouring: Using techniques such as radiofrequency to firm the skin and improve the figure, and focused ultrasound to target specific areas of the body.
  • Treatment of sun spots and redness: Use of IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) lasers to treat pigmentation spots, redness and visible blood vessels. 
  • Treatment of acne scars, scars and stretch marks: Using techniques such as microneedling or radiofrequency (RF) to improve the appearance of scars and stretch marks by stimulating cell regeneration and reducing pigmentation.
  • Skin firming: Use of radiofrequency, ultrasound or laser to stimulate collagen and improve skin firmness and elasticity.

FORMA RADIO FREQUENCY: What is it?

FORMA is a radiofrequency device used for skin rejuvenation and firming.

FORMA uses bipolar radiofrequency technology to deeply heat skin tissue, stimulating collagen production and improving skin elasticity.

How FORMA works

  • Controlled heating: FORMA uses radiofrequency waves to evenly heat the deep layers of the skin. The device controls the temperature to ensure optimum, constant heating without overheating, guaranteeing safe, effective treatment.

  • Collagen stimulation: Heat stimulates the production of new collagen fibers, firming and smoothing the skin, improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Advantages of FORMA Radiofrequency

  • Non-invasive: No surgery or recovery time required.
  • Safe and Comfortable: The procedure is generally well tolerated, with little or no discomfort.
  • Progressive results: Visible improvements from the very first sessions, with optimal results after several treatments.
  • Suitable for all skin types: FORMA is safe for all skin types and complexions.

 

FORMA radiofrequency is an effective and versatile treatment for a variety of aesthetic indications, from skin tightening to the reduction of wrinkles, scars and cellulite. With few contraindications and proven safety, FORMA is an attractive option for those seeking to improve the appearance of their skin non-invasively.

FORMA RADIO FREQUENCY: How a session unfolds

Skin preparation

  • Cleaning: The treatment area is thoroughly cleaned to remove any dirt, oil or make-up.
  • Conductive gel: A conductive gel is applied to the skin to facilitate sliding of the device and improve conduction of radiofrequency waves.

 

Application of FORMA Treatment

  • Device settings: The professional adjusts the parameters of the FORMA device according to the area to be treated and the specific needs of the skin.
    Treatment: The FORMA applicator is moved over the targeted area in slow, even strokes. The radiofrequency heats the deeper layers of the skin evenly.
    Duration: Each session generally lasts between 30 and 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area treated.

 

Temperature monitoring

  • Temperature control: The FORMA device features a real-time temperature control system to ensure that the skin reaches and maintains the optimum temperature (between 38-42°C) to stimulate collagen production without causing overheating or discomfort.
  • Comfort: The procedure is generally comfortable, with a warm, massage-like sensation.

 

Post-processing

  • Cleaning: The conductive gel is removed, and the skin is cleaned again.
  • Moisturizing and protecting: Moisturizing cream and sunscreen can be applied to soothe the skin and protect it from UV damage.

 

Post-treatment advice

  • Activities: Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the session.
  • Skin Care: We recommend the use of moisturizers and sun protection products to maintain results and protect the skin.
  • Hydration: Drink plenty of water to help the body eliminate toxins released during treatment.

 

Results and follow-up

  • Series of sessions: For optimum results, we generally recommend a series of 6 to 8 sessions, spaced one to two weeks apart.
  • Immediate results: Some patients notice an improvement in skin firmness and texture as early as the first session.
  • Progressive results: Improvements continue to be seen over the weeks following treatments, with maximum results observed around 3 to 6 months after the last session.
  • Maintenance sessions: Maintenance sessions may be required every 6 to 12 months to prolong results.

 

RADIOFREQUENCY FORMA: THE RESULTS

FORMA radiofrequency is renowned for its effective, progressive results in firming and smoothing the skin.

Improves skin firmness

  • Firming: The production of new collagen makes skin firmer and more toned. Areas of the body prone to loose skin, such as the abdomen, thighs, arms and neck, appear visibly tighter.
  • Visible results: Many patients notice an improvement in firmness from the very first sessions, with more marked results as the treatments progress.

 

Reduction of wrinkles and fine lines

  • Wrinkle smoothing: Collagen stimulation reduces fine lines and wrinkles, particularly on the face and neck. Skin becomes smoother and younger-looking.
  • Lifting effect: The progressive lifting effect makes facial contours more defined and improves the overall appearance of the skin.

 

Improved Skin Texture

  • Uniformity: Skin texture becomes more even and uniform, with a visible reduction in dilated pores.
  • Softness: Skin becomes softer to the touch and more radiant.

 

Cellulite Reduction

  • Smoothed appearance: FORMA helps reduce the appearance of cellulite by firming the skin and improving microcirculation.
  • Targeted areas: Areas commonly treated for cellulite include the thighs, buttocks and abdomen.
