Forma

Looking for skin rejuvenation and subtle lifting without needles or downtime? Forma at NORDA SKIN in North Bay is the non-invasive solution that uses advanced radiofrequency (RF) technology to smooth, contour, and instantly firm your skin. Often called the “lunchtime lift,” Forma is the perfect treatment for maintaining youthful skin elasticity or preparing for a big event.

About FORMA

Forma is a state-of-the-art, non-invasive skin treatment that uses advanced Radio Frequency (RF) energy to achieve deep tissue heating and dermal remodeling. As a top treatment at NORDA SKIN in North Bay, Forma safely and painlessly stimulates the natural production of new collagen and elastin in the skin. This technology delivers a powerful, youthful lift and glow by causing existing collagen fibers to contract, providing immediate tightening and long-term improvement in your skin’s elasticity and overall smoothness.

How it Works

The Technology

Forma utilizes proprietary A.C.E. technology (Acquire, Control, Extend) to deliver precise Radio Frequency (RF) energy deep into the skin’s layers.

The handheld Forma device gently heats the sub-dermal tissues to a therapeutic temperature range (typically 40-43°C). This process is comfortable—most clients describe it as feeling like a warm stone massage. The sustained heat accomplishes two things:

  1. Immediate Contraction: The heat causes existing collagen fibers to contract, which provides an instant tightening and smoothing effect.
  2. Long-Term Collagenesis: The heat triggers the fibroblasts (collagen-producing cells) to create new collagen and elastin, leading to progressive, long-term improvement in skin remodeling.

Because this treatment is completely non-invasive, it provides excellent non-surgical skin remodeling in North Bay with zero recovery time.

The Comfort Of The Procedure

Forma is one of the safest and most gentle skin remodelling treatments available. Using soothing, controlled radiofrequency heat, the treatment feels like a warm facial massage and is well tolerated, with no needles or downtime. Because Forma is entirely non-invasive, it carries virtually none of the risks associated with surgical or more aggressive procedures, allowing you to relax and enjoy a comfortable experience. At the same time, your skin is being rejuvenated.

Results

Many clients notice an immediate ‘glow’ and subtle tightening right after their first Forma treatment due to initial collagen contraction and tissue warming. Progressive improvement in skin firmness, elasticity, and texture develops over the course of a series of treatments as collagen production continues. Optimal results are typically seen a few weeks to a few months after the final recommended session.

Treatment Safety

Forma is a gentle, non-invasive radiofrequency treatment designed with both comfort and safety in mind. Using controlled, even heat with built-in temperature monitoring, the skin is continuously protected while collagen is stimulated beneath the surface. Treatments are needle-free, require no downtime, and are suitable for most skin types. Mild warmth or temporary redness may occur and typically resolve quickly. A personalized consultation is completed before treatment to ensure Forma is the right choice for your skin.

have a question?

Quick answers to questions you may have

Is the Forma treatment painful?

Not at all. Forma is widely known as one of the most comfortable aesthetic treatments available. Clients at NORDA SKIN in North Bay often describe the sensation as being similar to a warm stone massage or a warm facial. The built-in safety features ensure the heat is always comfortable and consistent, allowing you to relax during your non-invasive skin remodeling session.

Is there any downtime after a Forma facial?

Zero downtime! This is one of Forma’s key benefits. You may notice some very minor redness immediately after the treatment, but this subsides quickly, usually within 30 minutes. You can immediately return to your normal routine, apply makeup, and head out, making it an ideal “lunchtime lift” for clients in North Bay.

How many Forma sessions are typically needed to see optimal results?

For the best, most long-lasting skin tightening results, we usually recommend a series of 6 to 8 weekly sessions. After this initial intensive series, your skin will have built up a significant amount of new collagen. We then recommend occasional maintenance treatments every 3 to 4 months to sustain the beautiful, firm results.

How long does a Forma treatment session take?

A typical Forma treatment session for the full face and neck takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes from start to finish. Because there is no required preparation and zero downtime, the treatment fits easily into a busy schedule, offering quick and effective skin remodeling right here at our clinic.
