TURNING BACK TIME

How Forma and PicoWay gently help your skin rewind
Turning back time once meant dramatic interventions, but today it looks very different — quieter, smarter, and more refined. Here’s a quick intro to two of our favourite treatments leading this shift…
Forma rewinds at the structural level
Ageing doesn’t start on the surface. It goes way deeper, to where collagen weakens, elasticity fades, and skin slowly loses its firmness — but guess what? This is precisely where the Forma radiofrequency facial does its magic.
Using controlled radiofrequency energy, it heats the deeper layers of tissue, triggering collagen production and mild contraction. Over time, this creates a subtle tightening effect, restoring that natural, effortless “lift” of younger skin.
It’s kind of like retraining your skin so that it becomes firmer, and feels denser and more supported. The result?
Fine lines soften as the skin regains its bounce
You get a plumping, hydrated glow that makes skin look and feel refreshed, almost instantly
The icing on the cake? There’s no downtime. You can step out of a session and straight back into your day, looking quietly renewed.
PicoWay erases the effects of time
Where Forma rebuilds, the PicoWay laser refines. All those visible markers your skin accumulates over time — sun damage, pigmentation, acne scars, uneven tone — PicoWay targets, breaking down pigment and stimulating collagen:
Dark spots fade
Scars soften
Skin tone becomes visibly brighter, smoother and more even
A dual approach to time
Forma and PicoWay’s effects are enhanced when used in conduction with each other, because the Forma facial lifts and firms from within, while PicoWay clears and refines on the surface. Signs of premature ageing, like laxity and fine lines, are addressed at two levels, as is accumulated skin damage like scarring and hyperpigmentation.
Maintenance — not drastic change
We all know that the best way to keep skin looking and feeling younger for longer is maintenance, which is what makes makes both these treatments especially compelling.
They’re not just corrective—they’re preventative. Regular sessions help:
Slow the visible signs of ageing
Keep collagen production active
Maintain clarity and smoothness
They’re ideal treatments to have before special events, as they’re totally non-invasive and give the skin a lifted, luminous, even-tone that more aggressive procedures are hard-pressed to match.
Because when it comes to turning back time, you don’t want to look different — just like yourself, on your best day. Forma and PicoWay can help get you there, gently, naturally, and most of all, convincingly — step by step.
