Benefits of Forma
Helps Improve Skin Elasticity
Forma utilizes radiofrequency energy that may help stimulate collagen production, resulting in smoother, firmer-looking skin. Results may vary, but many patients notice improvements in skin tone after multiple sessions.
Suitable for Multiple Areas
Forma is versatile and can address various concerns, from jawline definition to cellulite and sagging skin on the body. This flexibility makes it a popular option among patients with different aesthetic goals.
Targets early Signs of Aging
Forma may improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging in commonly treated areas. The treatment is suitable for individuals seeking natural-looking improvements with minimal downtime.
Minimal Downtime Required
The treatment usually allows patients to quickly return to everyday responsibilities, making it convenient for busy lifestyles. Some redness may appear temporarily but generally resolves quickly after the session.
Non-invasive & Comfortable Treatment
This gentle procedure uses controlled heat to target tissues without the need for invasive surgery. Most patients describe it as a relaxing experience similar to a warm facial massage.
Supports Collagen Stimulation
Radiofrequency energy can stimulate collagen formation, which may help support the skin's structure and resilience. With consistent treatments, patients may see gradual improvements in firmness and definition.
How Forma Treatment Works
Forma leverages advanced radiofrequency technology to evenly heat the underlying tissues, promoting collagen production and tightening. This process helps improve the appearance of sagging skin without incisions or significant recovery time. Many patients report feeling comfortable warmth during sessions, with results improving gradually across multiple treatments.

Client Testimonials
“I needed a refresher. Felt dull and saggy. Spoke with Dr. N about my concerns and she listened intently and made me feel like her #1 client. She did such a wonderful job on making me feel more confident and comfortable without make up again. I’m older so I wasn’t looking to look 25 again. Just wanted to feel more comfortable in my skin again. I would highly recommend LA ViE. The staff is fabulous also, so kind and friendly. 5 out of 5!!!”
