Sofwave is a noninvasive ultrasound treatment used to improve skin laxity, fine lines, and overall skin firmness. It stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin without needles, surgery, or injury to the surface of the skin.
Face and neck: Forehead, brows, cheeks, lower face, jawline, beneath the chin, and neck
Body: Chest, abdomen, upper arms, knees, thighs, buttocks, and selected areas affected by cellulite
A topical numbing cream is usually applied before treatment. During the procedure, the device delivers controlled ultrasound energy beneath the surface of the skin.
Patients typically feel brief pulses of warmth or heat as the energy is delivered. Integrated cooling helps protect the surface of the skin and improve comfort.
Treatment generally takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the number and size of the areas being treated.
Sofwave has minimal to no downtime. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately after treatment.
Temporary redness, mild swelling, or tenderness may occur but typically resolves quickly.
Some patients notice an early improvement shortly after treatment. Lifting and firming develop gradually as the skin produces new collagen and elastin, with the most visible results typically appearing over approximately 12 weeks.
Results may continue to improve beyond this period.
