Forma utilizes advanced RF technology to deliver controlled heat to the deeper layers of the skin. The RF energy heats the tissue, which stimulates the production of collagen and elastin—key proteins responsible for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. The treatment is known for its precision and effectiveness in targeting specific skin concerns while providing a comfortable experience for patients.
