Forma

Using radio-frequency technology, Forma/Plus causes controlled thermal injury to the skin, stimulating neocollagenesis (the production of new collagen), and contracting the pre-existing collagen in the skin. This results in a tighter, plumper, and more youthful appearance to the skin.

Absolutely! Throughout the entire treatment, Forma/Plus consistently measures the temperature of your skin to ensure optimal, safe results. The treatment is completely non-invasive and non-ablative, meaning that there is no down-time after each session!

Forma is a facial treatment which uses a smaller wand to comfortably contour all of the delicate areas of the face and neck. Plus is a bigger wand for use on larger areas, such as the tummy, thighs, arms, etc. Both treatments tighten skin by stimulating the production of new collagen and the contraction of pre-existing collagen.

Nope! Forma/Plus are non-invasive treatments, so the most you should feel during a session is warmth in the targeted area. This technology also measures the temperature of the skin, so the skin never gets warm enough to feel pain. In fact it is a quite relaxing treatment some compare to a hot stone massage.

There are no adverse long-term side effects from either Forma or Plus treatments. Clients may experience slight temporary erythema (redness) in the targeted area of treatment. This erythema is only temporary, and typically lasts only a couple of hours after the treatment.

With Forma/Plus, it is possible to see results after one session! In fact, we recommend booking a Forma session the day of (or the day before) a special event, as it will ensure that your skin is looking tightened, lifted, plumped, and glowing! But for optimal, long-term results, 8 weekly sessions are required, and you will see your best results 6-8 weeks after the last session.

Forma/Plus is an amazing preventative treatment to ensure tighter, plumper skin and the rebuilding of collagen that we naturally lose as time passes. Generally, clients between the ages of 18-25 years old will benefit from one Forma facial session every 3 months (or every season), in order to maintain their youthful, even skin for longer. Clients with more laxity to their skin would receive optimal results with 8-sessions of the Forma/Plus treatment.

Absolutely! This is one of our favourite uses for Plus. We do want to make sure that the procedure if completely safe for you, so if you have had a C-section, we will require that you have been medically cleared by your physician to complete the treatment.

It is very important to make sure that your water intake is consistently high throughout your treatment. That is the only aftercare that you need for Forma/Plus! In general, adults should be be consuming a minimum of 2 Litres of water per day (more if you drink caffeinated or alcoholic beverages), and this is especially important whenever you are doing skin tightening or body contouring treatments.

In order to see your best results on your wedding day, we recommend you book your full treatment at minimum 4 months in advance. This will allow for the 8 weekly sessions, as well as the 6-8 weeks prior for the results to fully show.

Already past the 4 month mark but still looking for a facial treatment before the big day?

No problem! Booking one session the day before your wedding will ensure that your skin is looking smooth, plump, and tightened on the most important day. Makeup can be applied directly to the skin after the treatment, so no matter what plans you have for the night before your wedding, you’ll know that your skin will be glowing, youthful and contoured.
