Sofwave’s intense ultrasound technology with integrated cooling treats wrinkles and saggy skin on the face and neck, with no downtime. This results in noticeably tighter, naturally better-looking skin without surgery. Both men and women of all ages can benefit from Sofwave if they want tighter, smoother skin, are not ready for surgery, want to maintain results from other treatments, or simply want to prevent sagging.
Sofwave Medical brings a novel approach to skin tightening and lifting using SUPERB™ Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology, providing safe aesthetic treatments with measurable results. The treatment is non-invasive, safe in all skin types and poses no risk to underlying structures and fat pads. The fractional heating effect created by Sofwave’s unique ultrasound delivery stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin which leads to skin lifting, tightening, and reduction in lines and wrinkles. Sofwave is approved for use on the face, eyes, neck and body and is also approved by the FDA as a treatment for the appearance of cellulite and in the treatment of acne scarring. Typically, patients will receive 1-2 treatments, depending on the severity of concerns and the condition being treated. As the ultrasound energy is delivered, warmth is felt, but pain is significantly less compared to other skin tightening procedures. The collagen regeneration process can sometimes take up to 12 weeks, so patients are expected to see ongoing improvements in the 3-month period after their treatment. For more severe laxity a second treatment is advised at 6-12 weeks.
Benefits | Like other ultrasound procedures, a smooth applicator is placed on the top of your skin. Heat is produced below the surface of your skin to naturally and gradually create new collagen and elastic tissue and tighten the skin. Because of its state-of-the-art technology utilizing integrated cooling and high intensity, high frequency, multiple ultrasound beams, Softwave is more effective, more comfortable, and faster than Ultherapy and Thermage. |

Eyebrows (“Brow Wow”), cheeks, below eyes, jowls, jawlines and necks can all be tightened and/or lifted. While only 1 treatment is needed, we recommend a second treatment in 2-3 months after the first for optimal results. Because we continue to age, we recommend 1 maintenance treatment every year.
