Lifting and Firming Skin with Forma | Lexington KY

Collagen Loss Causes Signs of Aging

As you age, your skin begins to sag. Sagging skin is partially due to loss of collagen, which gives skin its elasticity and structural support, and loss of fat, which causes your skin to lose volume. Collagen loss also contributes mightily towards wrinkle formation. In the past, one of the only options to for reversing the effects of collagen loss was a facelift, which involved great cost, risk, and downtime.

Forma Radiofrequency (“RF”) Treatment for Wrinkles and Sagging

Forma is a non-invasive treatment that uses radio frequency to target the skin’s deepest layers. The radio frequency (RF) technology stimulates the bodys own regenerative response the generation of collagen to improve skin elasticity. In addition, the subdermal heating causes your existing collagen fibers to contract and move closer together, providing additional plumping and elasticity. The new collagen production combined with the skin contraction counteracts the effects of time and gravity on your skin. Thus, your skin looks firmer, tighter, and younger.

Forma Treatment Areas

Forma is designed to treat areas on the face and neck. It is often used on:

Eyelids
Nasolabial folds
Smile lines
Jowls
Neck

Forma is a Technological Breakthrough

Forma uses a unique handheld device that automatically monitors and adjusts when your skin reaches an appropriate treatment temperature. In fact, it reads your skin surface temperature 1000 times per second. As your skin reaches the appropriate therapeutic temperature, the amount of RF energy is automatically reduced. This ensures that your skin is always safe and protected.

Forma is a quick, painless treatment that can be completed during your lunch hour. Your Be Medispa professional will apply a cool, conductive gel and then gently massage the device across the treatment area.
