Forma by InMode
Forma by InMode uses radio-frequency technology to provide optimal skin contraction in the deep layers of your skin. Radio-frequency energy will stimulate the formation of new collagen and improve skin elasticity. The device is auto-adjustable to ensure optimal results, which minimises any one area from being under or over treated.
Forma is suitable for all skin types and is appropriate for individuals seeking a non-invasive and natural looking approach to improvements in skin tone, texture irregularities, tightness, and fine lines and wrinkles.
Forma-Temperature Sculpting
It works by using temperature sensors and feedback controls to gradually heat the skin's collagen to a sustained temperature of 41°C-43°C. This is the optimum temperature to cause your old collagen to unwind and new collagen to be formed as the body works to repair the heat damage beneath the surface. This process results in improved skin texture and appearance.

Please note that this is not an exhaustive list, and it is important to consult with one of our qualified dermal therapists to determine if Forma by InMode is an appropriate treatment option for you.
How long does it take to see results?
As collagen production takes time to build and is a gradual process, it’s common to see continued improvement in your appearance for several weeks following each Forma treatment. The results of Forma treatments are consistent and noticeable. However, it’s important to note that the aging process of the skin can’t be stopped, so the results from Forma are not permanent. To maintain your appearance, you may want to consider scheduling periodic maintenance treatments.
How long will the results last?
Results from Forma can be dependant on each individual. Generally you will see a continued benefit for many months as new collagen continues to develop. As we cannot stop the aging process, it is important to upkeep maintenance sessions for long-term results.
Am I a good candidate for Forma?
Forma is a non-invasive treatment that is suitable for all skin types and is ideal for those who prefer a natural-looking result without undergoing invasive procedures.
What can I expect during the treatment and how long does it take to complete?
Forma is a mostly comfortable treatment that has been likened to the experience of receiving a hot stone massage.
The duration of a Forma skin tightening treatment can vary depending on the size of the treatment area and the specific concerns being addressed. However, a typical session can start from 30 minutes.
What is the downtime?
There is usually no downtime required after a Forma skin tightening treatment. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure. Some patients may experience mild redness or swelling in the treated area, but this typically subsides within a few hours.
What is the aftercare post Forma?
- After the treatment, it’s important to handle the treated area gently for at least 12-24 hours.
- It’s recommended to limit physical activity to reduce excessive perspiration and avoid hot tubs, steam, saunas, or hot showers during this time.
- Care should be taken to avoid sun exposure (including tanning beds) before and after the treatment to prevent any changes in skin colour.
- It’s essential to apply sunscreen at all times to protect the skin.
It is recommended to follow the specific aftercare instructions provided by your practitioner.
