Forma and Forma Plus FAQ

What is the Pricing of Forma and FormaPlus treatment?

Individual sessions range from $150 to $325, depending on the area/areas to be treated. A precise quote is provided during the consultation when your provider can hear your concerns and assess the area you would like to address with Forma or FormaPlus. Package pricing for multiple sessions is available.

How does Forma RF technology work?

Forma device is based on ACE technology which uses radiofrequency energy to target deep layers of the skin, with no area being under or over-treated. In addition, the built-in sensor allows the technician to monitor skin temperature in real time, which ensures consistent results while maintaining excellent safety. Clinical studies have shown increased fibroblast metabolism and collagen synthesis weeks after just one treatment.

Am I a candidate for Forma RF skin tightening?

Forma and Forma Plus RF skin tightening is suitable for all skin types and is appropriate for individuals seeking a non-invasive, no-downtime approach to improvements in skin elasticity. Our clients say their skin feels smoother, more toned, and their facial contours are lifted after Forma.
