Crepey skin does not start on the face. It shows up on the backs of the hands, the inside of the upper arms and above the knees, and most body lotions are not built for it. TransFORM is, and Alastin names those three areas directly.
What is Alastin TransFORM Body Treatment?
Alastin TransFORM Body Treatment is a firming body lotion built on TriHex Technology, formulated to reduce the appearance of crepey and lax skin on the arms, hands and knees. It carries Hexapeptide-11, caffeine and LipoDRONE for the look of firmer, more toned skin. Applied two to three pumps, morning and evening.
What TransFORM Body Treatment does
TriHex Technology helps clear out damaged elastin and collagen and supports the skin's natural ability to produce new, healthy elastin and collagen. On the body that matters in places where skin thins and loses its spring rather than wrinkles. Hexapeptide-11 supports the body's natural detoxification and repair process, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-2 with dill extract works on elastin production, linseed extract supports GAG and hyaluronic acid production, and LipoDRONE works on the appearance of firmer, more toned skin.
Caffeine is the one worth noticing. It sits ninth in a 55-ingredient list, higher than any of the peptides, and it is the active most body firming products are built around.

Alastin TransFORM Body Treatment reviews: what buyers report
-
Hands first. Two of five reviewers write about the backs of their hands rather than arms or legs. One reports a visible difference after a week of daily use.
-
Daily use is the condition. "It actually works if you use it daily" is the recurring verdict. Nobody describes it working on occasional use.
-
Price, then a verdict. "Expensive but worth every penny" is how one puts it, and so far the cost has not stopped anyone reordering.
Who TransFORM Body Treatment suits
Anyone seeing crepey texture on the arms, hands or knees, whether from age or from weight loss. It suits someone already using Restorative Skin Complex or Regenerating Skin Nectar on the face who wants the body on the same technology.

How to Use
- Apply two to three pumps to the areas you are treating, morning and evening.
- Massage in until it absorbs. It sinks in fast and leaves no film.
- Alastin names arms, hands and knees as the areas it is built for.
- Use it daily. Every reviewer who reports a result describes using it every day without a break.
- In the morning, follow with a broad-spectrum sunscreen on any skin that will be uncovered.
Where on the body should I use it?
Alastin names arms, hands and knees. Those are the places skin goes crepey first, and they are the areas the formula was built for. Nava buyers most often mention the backs of their hands. It can go anywhere on the body, but those three areas are where it is designed to work hardest.
How much should I use, and how long before I see a difference?
Two to three pumps per application, morning and evening, which is the dose Alastin specifies. Buyers report a range on results. One noticed a change on the backs of the hands after a week, others describe it building over longer with daily use. The formula works on the skin's own elastin and collagen production, so it rewards consistency.
Does it have a fragrance?
Yes. Orange peel oil is in the formula, and limonene, linalool and citral are declared on the ingredient list. Anyone who reacts to fragrance components should patch test on a small area first. Alastin makes no fragrance-free claim for this product.
Can I use it after body contouring treatments?
Alastin formulates it to complement body sculpting and contouring results, and lists it in its own body care range on that basis. Follow whatever aftercare guidance your provider gives you, and check with them before applying anything to treated skin.
Does it build collagen?
No, and that distinction matters. TriHex Technology supports the skin's own production of new elastin and collagen by helping clear out damaged protein first. Nothing is added to the skin. One Nava reviewer put it well: it does not build collagen, it thickens and revitalizes.
