Forma I
Forma-I is a treatment for dry eye symptoms caused by Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). It’s used around the eyes and on the eyelids to reduce inflammation in the glands and ease eye irritation.
Advanced Technology – Uses targeted radiofrequency (RF) energy to treat small, delicate areas like:
- Around the eyes
- Eyelids
- Upper lips
Clinically Proven: Uses RF energy that is known to help reshape tissue, with real-time temperature control for safety.
Designed for Eye Safety
- Small applicator for precision
- Accurate control of RF depth
- Continuous monitoring of the skin to ensure safety
Comfortable and Precise: The treatment is gentle, accurate, and evenly applied.
Drug-Free Alternative: Provides an effective way to improve gland function and relieve dry eye symptoms without medication.
Technology Benefits
Forma-I technology uses advanced thermal tissue remodeling, which helps reshape tissue by delivering targeted heat. The device can quickly reach a temperature of 43°C within just 60 seconds, making the treatment fast and effective. It uses bipolar radiofrequency (RF) energy that is delivered through two electrodes, ensuring efficient treatment. A built-in temperature sensor constantly monitors the skin’s temperature in real-time, and if the skin reaches the desired temperature, the device automatically reduces the RF energy, ensuring the highest level of safety.
The technology is designed to treat any skin type, as it is not sensitive to skin color, making it a “color-blind” treatment. It also includes anti-arching features, RF energy redistribution, and avoids any sudden spikes in energy, further enhancing safety. The procedure is conducted in-office, is non-surgical, pain-free, and allows patients to rest comfortably during the treatment.
Treatment Benefits
The Forma-I treatment is highly versatile and safe for all skin types. It’s not sensitive to skin pigmentation, making it effective across different skin colors—essentially a “color-blind” treatment. The technology also provides effective bulk heating, ensuring that the targeted area is evenly and thoroughly heated.
One of the standout features of this treatment is that there is no need for protective goggles, making it safe and convenient to use near the edges of the eyelids. Additionally, the treatment is safe for eyelashes and eyebrows, with no risk of hair removal.
The Forma-I treatment offers:
- Versatility: Can be used on both upper and lower eyelids.
- Precise Control: Ensures safety and effectiveness with
- Temperature control
- Impedance monitoring
- Real-time feedback
These features make the Forma-I treatment both effective and safe, with a focus on patient comfort and convenience.
