Skin Tightening in Bakersfield, CA With Forma Technology

Forma was developed based on the clinical success of the proprietary A.C.E. (Acquire, Control, Extend) technology. A.C.E. technology uses radio-frequency energy to target deep layers of the skin, with no area being under or over treated. This ensures maximum and consistent results.

By stimulating production of fresh collagen, Forma not only enhances your skin's suppleness, but it also offers remarkably rejuvenating results. A safe, stable current of radio frequency energy flows between electrodes applied to your skin that prevents undertreatment or overtreatment. In addition, the Forma device is equipped with a sensor for precise gauging of your skin's surface temperature. This advanced technology allows your doctor to obtain real-time skin temperature for optimizing treatment.

Forma can be used both on the face and body. Commonly treated areas on the face include: forehead, crows feet, upper eyelids, lower eyelids, nasolabial folds, jowls, smile lines and neck. On the body, popular treatments consist of the arms (bat wings), abdomen and other areas that may need contraction.

Forma is an essentially painless procedure with no downtime due to its precise technology and deep-layer targeting of the skin. Slight redness in the treatment area is common post- procedure, which subsides within a few hours. In fact, clients undergoing Forma skin tightening in Bakersfield report the procedure feels similar to a gentle, warm massage. The ability of the Forma device to maintain a pleasant skin temperature also contributes to keeping the procedure comfortable and easy. No downtime is needed following a Forma treatment*.

The only side effect of Forma is redness to treated areas, which diminishes in two to three hours*. Clients can resume their normal activities after leaving our clinic.

It is recommended that weekly sessions are performed over a six-week period. Individuals with mild skin laxity may be treated in fewer sessions with more weeks between each treatment. Scheduling should be based on a medical pre-evaluation. Multiple sessions are necessary for producing enough new collagen in your skin to achieve desired tightening, firming and wrinkle reduction. Although you will not need “maintenance” Forma sessions, your skin will continue aging naturally. Consequently, you may wish to undergo future Forma treatments on an as-needed basis.

Yes, Forma can be used in combination with most other laser treatments, facials, injectables and/or fillers. Please speak to your aesthetic provider when considering combining Forma with other treatments.
