The Best Skin Tightening Method for Face & Neck
At SpaMedica GR in Grand Rapids we offer the latest and most advanced skin tightening methods for the face and neck, that will help you look years younger!
Forma radiofrequency skin tightening is one of the latest and most advanced technologies for skin tightening and lifting. It can immediately tighten your skin without surgery and without downtime. This state-of-the-art skin tightening technology also can treat “jowls” or “turkey neck” as well as crow’s feet, under eye bags, saggy eyelids, and fine lines around the nose, mouth, forehead and jawline. And, Forma can also be used to tighten skin on the body, including the abdomen, thighs, buttocks and upper arms.
History of Face & Neck Skin Tightening
Collagen and elastin are the proteins that form the skin’s underlying “scaffolding” – making the face firm, smooth and tight, and causing skin to “snap back” in place. But, as we age, the skin’s production of collagen and elastin decreases. And, as the skin’s underlying structure begins to collapse, the skin on the face begins to sag and droop.
This loose, lax facial skin then creates age-revealing wrinkles, creases, “jowls” and even the so-called “turkey neck”. And, anyone suffering from these problems will tell you that even the most expensive “miracle creams” and serums are not enough to tighten lax skin on the face and neck.
Unfortunately, for decades, the only way to truly tighten face and neck skin was with painful, expensive facelift surgery that required weeks of recovery and left large scars that needed to be concealed.
The good news is that a new technology using Radiofrequency energy now exists that can tighten skin without surgery, without incisions, without pain and without downtime. Invented in 1995, radiofrequency skin tightening has evolved over the years into the state-of-the-art Forma “non-surgical facelift” offered at SpaMedica in Grand Rapids today.
Non-Surgical Face & Neck Skin Tightening
Forma skin tightening is an advanced, non-invasive, thermal skin tightening treatment that emits gentle but power radiofrequency (RF) waves deep into the skin. This thermal energy causes instant contraction and tightening of the skin for immediately visible skin tightening.
The RF waves are set at a frequency that does not damage the skin’s surface, so there is no recovery period or downtime. However, the thermal energy does go to work stimulating the skin’s natural production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid below the skin in the “dermis” and subcutaneous fat layers.
As the body’s production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid is renewed and regenerated, the face and neck skin’s tone, texture and tightness also improve further over time.

Forma Skin Tightening – The Lunchtime Facelift
Because Forma offers immediate skin tightening results with no downtime, it is often dubbed the “Lunchtime Facelift.” Patients can return to work or their normal daily activities immediately afterwards – instantly looking younger but with no evidence that they had any procedure done.
Forma’s immediate skin tightening results have also made the treatment extremely popular with celebrities for a fast, non-surgical facelift before premiers and other events. For this reason, Forma radiofrequency skin tightening has also been called the “Red Carpet Facelift”.
