Sofwave is an FDA cleared, non-invasive treatment of fine lines and wrinkles using next generation SUPERB™ Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology. The fractional heating effect created by Sofwave’s unique ultrasound delivery stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, which leads to the reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.

How does Sofwave work?

The depth for treating wrinkles is 1.5mm in the mid-dermis. Our unique, Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam SUPERB™ technology generates heat at this exact depth in the mid-dermis. Additionally, there is an integrated cooling mechanism, Sofcool™, that protects the uppermost skin layer from burning.

The impacted treatment zones stimulate a healing response, called neo-collagenases, which increases and regenerates the collagen in the skin, leading to the reduction in fine lines and wrinkles. Sofwave is clinically-proven to remodel collagen, improve facial lines and reduce wrinkles, achieving ideal outcomes with minimal downtime in a single 30-45-minute treatment.

How Is Sofwave Better Than Other Existing Technologies?

Today there are various energy-based technologies designed to treat facial lines and wrinkles. Aggressive options (such as lasers) can cause significant damage to the skin surface, leading to a long healing period, considerable downtime, and a potentially high risk of side effects. Even RF micro needling treatments that have recently become popular can be uncomfortable, risky, and require downtime.

Gentler, non-invasive solutions (such as IPL and noninvasive RF) have shown limited efficacy, and in most cases, require multiple treatments.

Sofwave’s unique technology enables the controlled delivery of energy, in terms of amount and location, while protecting the skin surface with an integrated cooling mechanism. Even better, there is no lengthy recovery period or downtime.

Sofwave FAQ

How Many Treatments are needed?

Typically, the treatment protocol calls for 1-2 treatments, depending on the patient’s skin condition.

What Does The Sofwave Treatment Feel Like?

As the ultrasound energy is delivered, you may feel warmness on the skin. Treatment is comfortable simply by applying a topical anesthetic cream just prior to the treatment. Following the treatment, there are no sensations and there is no need to apply special care to the skin. Daily care can be resumed immediately post treatment.

When Can I Expect to See Results

The collagen regeneration process can sometimes take up to 12 weeks, so patients are expected to see ongoing improvements in the three-month period after their treatment. In Sofwave’s clinical trials, results have been shown as soon as one treatment is completed. The results will last for about one year, at which point it is recommended to repeat the treatment.

Are There Any Side Effects With Sofwave

Sofwave is a non-invasive treatment for skin tightening. Clinical trials have shown the technology to be effective and safe. Immediately post treatment, the skin may appear slightly red with limited swelling for up to a few hours post treatment.
