Radio Frequency Skin Tightening Treatment Timeline
Consultation
We offer a complimentary consultation where you will have a face to face assessment with your aesthetics practitioner. Each consultation will explain how it works and what you can expect from treatment. We will then review your past medical history to ensure you are suitable and safe for the treatment.
Treatment day
Our experienced practitioners will answer any questions you have, and only when you are comfortable and ready, will your treatment start. The Forma handpiece will be placed on the targeted skin and it is moved over the skin in a continuous motion, gradually heating the skin to optimal temperature.
Aftercare and recovery
One of the huge advantages of forma is that there is little to no downtime associated with the treatment. Unlike more invasive skin-tightening procedures, such as surgery, forma is a non-invasive treatment that does not require any incisions or anaesthesia. After the treatment, some patients may experience mild redness, swelling, or a warm sensation in the treated area, but these side effects typically resolve within a few hours.
Future Treatments
The results are typically noticeable immediately after the treatment, and continue to improve over time as the collagen production is stimulated. Multiple treatments are recommended for optimal results, and maintenance treatments may be needed to sustain the result over time.
Radio Frequency Skin Tightening Price List
Radio Frequency Skin Tightening starts at £200 per area. As most patients require multiple treatments, reduced price packages are available and full pricing can be found here
Forma can also be used in combination with many facial treatments. A popular clinic choice is Hydrafacial + Forma – a treatment we know as HydraTight. This is a wonderful treatment for anyone who is looking for not only a lift and tighten, but to also target some more specific skin concerns.

What is Radio Frequency Skin Tightening?
Radio frequency skin tightening is a non-invasive treatment that uses heat and radiofrequency to increase collagen production in both the face and body. This results in lifting, tightening, and contouring, almost like ironing your skin – in turn helping reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles – and aiding recovery from age spots and hyperpigmentation. At Look Lovely London, we use a skin tightening device called Forma, by InMode which is the best for outstanding results.
What are the Benefits of Radio Frequency Skin Tightening?
Non-Invasive Treatment
Forma uses radio frequency energy to heat the deep layers of the skin without any incisions, leading to a non-invasive procedure with minimal discomfort and no downtime.
Improves Skin Texture and Tone
Forma treatments can enhance skin texture and tone, reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin for a smoother, more even complexion.
Quick and Convenient
Treatments are relatively quick, often taking about 30 minutes per session, and can be easily integrated into a busy schedule without significant downtime.
Stimulates Collagen Production
The radio frequency energy stimulates collagen production, which helps to improve skin elasticity and firmness over time, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
Safe for All Skin Types
Forma is safe and effective for all skin types and tones, making it a versatile option for a wide range of patients seeking skin rejuvenation.
Long-Lasting Results
With regular treatments, Forma can provide long-lasting improvements in skin tightness and overall appearance, making it a valuable addition to any anti-ageing treatment plan.
How does Radio Frequency Skin Tightening Work?
Forma works using radiofrequency energy to target deep layers of the skin, with no area being under or over treated. This ensures maximum and consistent results. During the procedure the device will be placed on the targeted skin, which emits radiofrequency energy to heat up the tissue and stimulate the production of collagen. The heat also causes the underlying tissue to contract, resulting in a tighter and firmer appearance. The device is moved over the treatment area in a continuous motion, gradually heating the skin to optimal temperature. The treatment is designed to be comfortable, and patients often describe it as feeling like a warm massage.
