InMode FX & Forma RF Facial Tightening in Myeongdong Seoul
InMode’s dual-modality platform combines Forma deep tissue heating for collagen remodeling with FX fractional RF for skin resurfacing. Paired with Shurink HIFU at RE:BERRY Myeongdong for a comprehensive V-line tightening protocol at an exceptional value.
What Is InMode FX & Forma?
InMode is a modular aesthetic platform by InMode Ltd. that includes Forma (bipolar RF for deep tissue heating and collagen remodeling) and FX (fractional RF for skin resurfacing and texture improvement). Together, they address skin laxity, fine lines, acne scars, and uneven texture through controlled radiofrequency energy.
InMode Forma uses bipolar radiofrequency with real-time temperature monitoring (A.C.E. technology) to uniformly heat the deep dermis to an optimal 43°C, triggering collagen denaturation and subsequent neocollagenesis. InMode FX adds fractional RF pins that create precise micro-thermal zones for skin resurfacing, scar improvement, and pore refinement. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, these modalities are combined with Shurink HIFU for a multi-layer approach: FX (epidermis/superficial dermis), Forma (deep dermis), and Shurink (SMAS).

The Science Behind InMode FX & Forma
How bipolar RF and fractional RF technology deliver skin tightening and resurfacing.
Forma: Bipolar RF and A.C.E. Technology
InMode Forma uses bipolar radiofrequency to deliver controlled, uniform heating to the subdermal layer. The A.C.E. (Acquire, Control, Extend) technology continuously monitors skin temperature at 1,000 readings per second, automatically adjusting power output to maintain the optimal 43°C threshold. This temperature triggers collagen denaturation and subsequent neocollagenesis without risk of burns.
FX: Fractional RF Resurfacing
InMode FX uses an array of RF pins that deliver energy through the epidermis into the dermis, creating controlled micro-thermal zones. These zones trigger the wound healing cascade, replacing damaged tissue with new collagen-rich tissue. The fractional approach ensures rapid healing as surrounding intact tissue serves as a regeneration reservoir.
Clinical Evidence
Dayan et al. (2019) demonstrated 89% patient satisfaction with Forma treatment at 12 weeks, with quantifiable improvement in skin laxity measured by digital imaging analysis. Hurley et al. (2020) showed that FX fractional RF produced statistically significant improvement in acne scar severity at 3 months, comparable to ablative laser but with significantly less downtime.

Forma uses bipolar RF for deep tissue heating and collagen remodeling (like a deep thermal massage). FX uses fractional RF pins for skin resurfacing, pore reduction, and texture improvement. They treat different skin layers.
FX involves mild prickling sensation as the RF pins deliver energy. Topical numbing is applied beforehand. Most patients rate it 3-4 on a 10-point scale. Forma is comfortable and feels like a warm massage.
Significant improvement is visible after 1 session. For optimal results, a series of 3-4 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart is recommended. The ₩399,000 package delivers excellent single-session results.
Forma: no downtime, mild redness resolves in hours. FX: mild redness and tiny micro-crusts for 2-3 days. Most patients return to normal activities the same day.
Shurink delivers HIFU energy to the SMAS layer (deepest structural layer), complementing Forma’s dermal heating and FX’s epidermal resurfacing for a complete multi-layer treatment.
Yes. FX fractional RF creates controlled micro-thermal zones that stimulate collagen remodeling in scarred tissue. Clinical studies show significant acne scar improvement at 3 months.
Yes. RF energy is color-blind and safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types (I-VI). The A.C.E. temperature monitoring provides an additional safety layer.
A.C.E. (Acquire, Control, Extend) monitors skin temperature at 1,000 readings per second and automatically adjusts power to maintain optimal 43°C. This prevents overheating while ensuring therapeutic efficacy.
