SUMMARY

Abstract
Facial aging often manifests as skin laxity due to collagen and elastin degradation. Traditional facelifts remain effective, but patients increasingly demand non-invasive solutions with little to no downtime. This clinical study investigated a novel bipolar radiofrequency device (Forma, InMode) designed to achieve controlled dermal heating for collagen remodeling and skin tightening. Fifteen patients received 4–6 weekly treatments, and improvements were evaluated by blinded cosmetic physicians.

Conclusion
All patients demonstrated clinical improvement, with over 70% achieving moderate to significant tightening outcomes. Treatments were safe, pain-free, and required no anesthesia or downtime. The findings confirm that this RF technology offers an effective, non-invasive alternative for face and neck rejuvenation, with consistent and reproducible results.

TOPICS COVERED

  • Use of InMode’s Forma bipolar RF technology for dermal heating and collagen remodeling
  • Evaluation of skin tightening results in face and neck areas
  • Clinical study outcomes showing moderate to significant patient improvements
  • Advantages of non-invasive RF treatment with no downtime or anesthesia
  • Comparison with traditional facelifts and limitations of prior non-invasive devices
