What is Sofwave?

This technology is a new-generation ultrasound device and offers minimal irritation of the epidermis and sub-dermis, minimizing or eliminating downtime. Sofwave is a breakthrough in anti-aging technology, offering a truly non-invasive alternative to surgical lifting. It is a MUST have treatment option and is FDA approved for the improvement of wrinkles, fine lines,  skin texture, loose skin, and even cellulite. This focused ultrasound penetrates deep into the skin layers previously only available with surgery and uses highly focused ultrasound energy to safely lift and tighten skin. A single treatment creates significant visible improvements in the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles with very high patient satisfaction.

Why choose Sofwave?

As our skin ages, the collagen and elastin within begin to slowly break down over time, which results in loss of elasticity and volume. This can contribute to wrinkles, rough texture, and laxity associated with an aged look.

Over the years, a wide range of non-surgical devices has been introduced for anti-aging treatments with varying degrees of success. A standard treatment known as ablated laser technology removes a volume of tissue on the top layers of the skin. This "damaged" tissue is eventually replaced with newer collagen and elastin. However, the recovery and risks associated with these types of treatment are not desirable to many patients.

Sofwave has been developed to treat fine lines and wrinkles and induce new collagen production. This technology satisfies a growing patient demand and the need for alternative non-ablative (abrasive), non-invasive treatments by using ultrasound energy that works by heating up the underlying skin tissue without harming the skin's surface.

Can Sofwave™ Be Combined With Other Treatments?

Another option is to pair this treatment with other anti-aging modalities to optimize results in a single visit. Like many patients, treatment of other skin conditions, like brow wrinkles or the "11s" between the brows that are a telltale sign of age, can be treated at the same appointment.

The bottom line is that Sofwave can be effectively combined with other treatments to target all your unique skincare and anti-aging needs including:

How long will it take to see my results?

Good news! Most patients only need one Sofwave treatment to see visible results. However, you may benefit from additional treatments, depending on your response to the treatment.

Results are seen as soon as 1 week after your treatment. Since this technology starts the collagen regeneration process, which can take up to 12 weeks, patients see ongoing improvements for as much as 3 months after their treatment.

Sofwave is designed for all ages, skin types, and colors.
