Is fractora/forma by inmode effective skin tightening for a neck and jaw line?

Forma is similar to other bulk heating devices such as Pelleve and Thermage.  The difference is that Forma has temperature monitoring to more accurately monitor temperature.  Fractora is the use of bipolar radiofrequency needling to improve and contract skin.  For mild correction of neck and jawline, Forma is an Ok option.  However, Facetite and Necktite (also by InMode) can create much more dramatic differences.  With Facetite and Necktite, the device is placed underneath the skin to contract fat (when applicable) as well as the dermis to contract laxity as well.  This device represents a hallmark change in the way necks can be treated with a "nonsurgical" approach.

Fractora is a radiofrequency device targeted at photo rejuvenation of the skin. It is one of many devices in a large armamentarium available for this purpose. The best option for you will be based on your individual goals, needs and anatomy.
Energy-based devices like lasers, IPL, radio frequency, microfocused ultrasound and even coolsculpting cryolipolysis are all different tools in our toolbox. When seeking the best options for you, you want to make sure that you are working with somebody who has a full toolbox, and you are not just getting the recommendation for a few device options that they have to choose from. If you need screw tightened, you don’t want somebody trying to use a hammer to do it!
I keep 10+ devices on hand in my practice, which provides a very broad range and May serve as a good metric when speaking with somebody and considering your device options.
To ensure you are receiving the highest level of care, seek out a modernly trained, new-school dermatologic surgeon, oculoplastic surgeon, facial plastic surgeon or plastic surgeon who is board certified and fellowship trained in one of these “core four” cosmetic specialties. Membership in organizations like the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery help to identify a highly trained surgeon.

I recommend a combination of Pelleve and Nectifirm cream to address skin laxity in the neck region. You will need 4-6 Pelleve treatments and you will need to use Nectifirm twice a day for at least 2 months.You can also speak to your plastic surgeon about Kybella. It is an injection to permanently destroy double chin fat. You will probably need a couple sessions. And it will have skin tightening effects as well.Ultimately, it is possible that surgery could be the best option but the above are the best non-surgical options.By best,Sheila Nazarian

Forma is excellent if done in close succession for the neck and jawline - a session of 3-6 treatments (as close as a week apart) is needed to achieve a more tighter and brighter jawline

Forma is a great treatment for the neck area to tighten lift and improve. The neck area needs a course treatments to get great results. Normally 6 treatments but it depends on the starting point and the goals you have. There are a number of excellent neck creams that can be combined with treatment too.

Fractora and Forma used in combination is one of the most effective, non-invasive treatments for tightening of the skin for jaw line and neck. They are two different procedures that are performed in an alternating fashion. Forma will gently heat the skin which stimulates collagen and elastin while Fractora will improve wrinkling and texture and provide contraction. Treatments will be customized to the patient as per the technician using different settings, applicators and energies. We always recommend treating the full face for best results.
