Side Effects
- Limit your direct sun exposure and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher
- Stop using skincare products with retinoids, AHAs, or BHAs at least 1-2 weeks before the treatment.
- Do Not physically exfoliate your skin
- Keep your skin well moisturized and hydrated
- Complete 6 sessions, spaced weekly; results build gradually and typically peak 4–6 weeks after the final treatment.
- Avoid strenuous exercise, hot showers/saunas, and sun exposure for 2–3 days post-treatment; keep skin hydrated and apply SPF 30+ daily.
- Schedule maintenance sessions every 6–12 months or as recommended by your provider to sustain tightening benefits.
Possible effects following treatment may include:
- Discomfort: You may experience discomfort during or after the procedure. Over-the-counter pain relief may be used if needed
- Swelling: Swelling in the treated area may occur and can last up to one week
- Bruising or discoloration: Temporary bruising or purple discoloration may appear in the treated area
- Burns: Burns ranging from mild to severe may occur in the treatment area. While minor burns typically heal without issue, more severe burns can lead to scarring, changes in sensation, or pigmentation changes
- Changes in skin pigmentation: Lightening (hypopigmentation) or darkening (hyperpigmentation) of the skin may occur, which can be temporary or permanent
- Scarring: While minimal, scarring can occur when the skin surface is affected. Following post-treatment care instructions carefully helps minimize this risk
- Allergic reactions: Allergic reactions to anesthetic, topical products, or oral medications are possible
- Herpes outbreak: If you carry the herpes simplex virus (HSV), an outbreak may occur even with antiviral prevention. Contact your practitioner immediately if you experience pain, skin eruptions, or blistering after treatment
- Infection: Though uncommon, infection is possible following any skin treatment. Signs include redness, fever, pain, pus, or swelling. If these symptoms occur, immediate medical evaluation and treatment are necessary

Frequently Asked Questions
How many sessions are needed?
The number of sessions varies from person to person and depends on your skin concerns, treatment area and how your skin responds. Your practitioner will recommend a plan after assessing you and discussing what is realistic for you.
Are there any side effects of Forma?
Most people experience temporary warmth, redness and mild swelling in the treated area, which usually settles within a few hours. Less common risks can include burns, changes in skin sensation or pigmentation, or dissatisfaction with the cosmetic outcome, and these will be discussed with you before treatment.
Is Forma right for me?
Forma may be considered if you are concerned about mild skin laxity or uneven texture and prefer a non‑surgical option. Your suitability depends on your medical history, skin type, current medications and expectations, so this can only be confirmed after a face‑to‑face consultation.
Do results from Forma last a long time?
Some people notice gradual improvement over a series of treatments, but the degree and duration of change vary and no result can be guaranteed. Ageing, lifestyle factors and skin care all influence how long any visible effect may last.
Does it hurt?
Many people describe a feeling of warmth or heat during treatment, and some areas can feel more sensitive than others. Your practitioner will monitor your comfort and can adjust settings, but a completely pain‑free experience cannot be promised.
What is Forma facial and how does it work?
Forma is a non‑invasive treatment that uses controlled radiofrequency energy to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin. This heating is intended to support collagen activity and gradual firming in the treated area, although individual responses vary and multiple sessions are often needed.
Is Forma face treatment safe for all skin types?
Forma can be used on many skin types when appropriate settings and precautions are followed. However, it is not suitable for everyone, including some people with certain medical conditions, implanted devices, active skin disease or pregnancy, so a consultation is required to check if it is safe for you.
Who can get a skin tightening treatment?
Skin tightening treatments such as Forma are generally considered for adults who are in good general health, have realistic expectations and have specific concerns about mild laxity or texture. Your practitioner will assess your goals, health and alternative options before advising whether this treatment is appropriate for you.
