Tighten, sculpt, and define your jawline with minimally invasive radiofrequency technology at Formation, Tampa’s boutique aesthetic surgery clinic.
If you have been searching for FaceTite in Audubon Park, FL, you already know that a strong jawline and a clean neck profile make a real difference in how you look and how you feel. The challenge is finding a clinic that treats facial contouring as a craft, not a commodity. That is exactly what Formation was built to do.
Formation is a plastic surgery clinic based in Tampa, just a short drive from the Audubon Park neighborhood. Rather than operating as a high volume practice, Formation was intentionally designed as a boutique surgical studio where fewer patients receive significantly deeper care. Every consultation, every procedure plan, and every recovery protocol is personalized. Nothing is rushed. You can learn more about what drives this approach on our practice philosophy page.
The clinic’s surgical team includes Dr. Ahmad Saad, a plastic surgeon, and Dr. Gopal Grandhige, a board certified surgeon who specializes in aesthetic surgery. Dr. Grandhige brings more than 15 years of surgical experience across complex disciplines, including critical care, burn surgery, and minimally invasive procedures. His medical training began at the University of Michigan Medical School, where he developed a strong foundation in anatomy, physiology, and systems based thinking. That depth of training directly shapes how FaceTite is performed at Formation, with a focus on safety, anatomical precision, and results that look natural rather than overdone.
Formation is especially known for male facial contouring and jawline refinement, though patients of all backgrounds seek the clinic for its restrained, anatomy driven approach. If you want a provider who will be honest about what FaceTite can and cannot do for you, this is the right place to start.
FaceTite is an FDA cleared skin tightening treatment that uses radiofrequency assisted lipolysis, also called RFAL, to firm and contour the lower face and neck. It is one of the most effective nonsurgical options available for patients dealing with mild to moderate skin laxity, stubborn submental fat, or a softened jawline. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recognizes minimally invasive facial procedures as one of the fastest growing categories in aesthetic medicine, and FaceTite is a leading option in that space.
During the procedure, a small probe is inserted beneath the skin through a tiny puncture point. The device delivers controlled bipolar radiofrequency energy both above and below the skin’s surface. This thermal energy does two things simultaneously: it melts small pockets of unwanted fat and it contracts existing collagen fibers while stimulating new collagen production over the following months.
Unlike topical RF devices or ultrasound based treatments that work only from the outside, FaceTite reaches deeper tissue layers from within. That internal delivery is what allows it to produce stronger, more visible tightening, often comparable to what previously required a surgical facelift. There are no large incisions, no visible scars, and no general anesthesia required.
At Formation, FaceTite is frequently combined with targeted neck liposuction to maximize jawline definition and profile sharpness. For patients exploring complementary options, treatments like PDO thread lifts or injectable treatments can also be discussed during your consultation. Dr. Grandhige personally evaluates every patient to determine whether FaceTite alone, or FaceTite paired with complementary contouring, will deliver the most natural and lasting result.
The procedure itself typically takes 30 to 45 minutes. Most patients return to daily activities within a few days. Initial improvements are visible right away, but the full effect develops gradually over three to six months as new collagen continues to build beneath the skin.
Formation patients consistently report one thing after FaceTite treatment: people notice something changed, but nobody can tell exactly what. That subtlety is intentional. Dr. Grandhige’s approach to facial skin tightening is rooted in restraint and anatomical respect, not exaggeration. You can see examples of this work in our before and after gallery.
Men especially appreciate this. A sharper jawline and a more defined neck profile often translate into looking more rested, more fit, and more confident in professional settings, in photos, and on video calls. Many patients say it feels like their face finally matches the effort they put into the rest of their body.
FaceTite results typically last between five and seven years. The fat cells removed during the procedure do not return, and the collagen remodeling that occurs in the months following treatment creates a tighter baseline that ages more gracefully over time. With proper sun protection and a healthy skincare routine, patients can extend those results even further.
Formation maintains a 5.0 rating with over 40 reviews. Patients trust the clinic because it delivers what it promises: honest assessments, personalized plans, and outcomes that hold up long after the initial swelling fades.
“I felt like my face and neck finally matched the rest of my body. People keep telling me I look more rested. Nobody suspects a thing.” — Formation Patient

Facial Harmonization Step 2
It takes more than one treatment and often more than one treatment session to accomplish facial harmony and balance.
Here’s a look at step 2 in the journey for our surgical coordinator Hanna.
She wanted to address asymmetry and fullness in the lower face. To accomplish this we’ve started with Botox in the masseter to slim the jaw, and create a more feminine, heart shaped face. Now for step 2 we’re placing PDO lifting threads to enhance definition around the jawline without adding volume.

The power of a profile transformation. 🔥
For this patient, we combined PDO Lifting Threads and advanced chin/jawline filler to completely redefine his lower face. By strategically lifting the mid-to-lower face and sculpting the jaw, we didn’t just enhance one feature—we elevated his entire facial appearance.
An incredible, natural-looking result that brings balance and confidence from every angle.
Note: Minor bunching or puckering is completely normal immediately following a PDO thread lift. The slight bunching visible in the after photo will fully subside on its own over the next 2-4 weeks as the threads settle.

Check out this incredible before and after of our gorgeous patient 6 months following her Female HD Liposculpture! ⏳
While these results are already stunning, here is a little insider secret: she’s not even at her final result yet! Healing from high-definition liposculpture is a journey. Over the next few months, residual swelling will continue to subside, and any temporary skin texture changes or minor discoloration will fully resolve. As the tissues settle, her skin will keep tightening to reveal even more crisp, beautifully defined athletic contours.
We love seeing our patients blossom through their recovery. Patience pays off, and her body will only continue to lean out and lock in over the coming months!

Call (813) 922 2920 or book online to schedule your consultation. Your path to a sharper, more defined jawline starts with FaceTite at Formation.
Yes. FaceTite is FDA cleared and uses bipolar radiofrequency energy with built in temperature sensors that monitor heat levels in real time. This prevents overheating and protects surrounding tissue. At Formation, all procedures are performed in a registered, accredited surgical environment with a consistent and experienced team. Dr. Grandhige prioritizes safety at every stage, from pre procedure evaluation through recovery.
Some improvement is visible immediately, particularly from fat reduction. However, the most significant tightening and contouring develops over three to six months as your body produces new collagen. Full results are typically apparent around six to twelve months after treatment.
Recovery is relatively quick. Most patients experience mild swelling, bruising, and tightness for the first few days. A compression garment is worn for a short period to support healing. Many patients return to work and light social activities within three to five days.
Results typically last between five and seven years. The fat cells that are removed do not regenerate. Skin tightening results depend on factors like skin quality, sun exposure, and overall lifestyle. Protecting your skin from UV damage and following a consistent skincare routine will help extend your results.
Absolutely. At Formation, FaceTite is often paired with targeted neck liposuction or Morpheus8 radiofrequency microneedling to enhance jawline definition and overall skin quality. During your consultation, Dr. Grandhige will recommend the approach that best fits your anatomy and goals.
