Frequently Asked Questions
How does Sofwave™ work?
Sofwave is an advanced, non-invasive aesthetic treatment that utilizes state-of-the-art ultrasound technology to rejuvenate and tighten the skin.
The unique, Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam SUPERB™ technology generates heat at an exact depth in the mid-dermis. Another unique feature is the SofCool™ technology. Each transducer is individually cooled and in direct contact with the epidermis during treatment. This ensures a uniform effect in the tissue and repeatable, controllable energy deposition in the skin without damaging the epidermal (outer) skin.
The impacted treatment zones stimulate a healing response, called neocollagenesis, which increases and regenerates the collagen in the skin, leading to the reduction in fine lines, wrinkles and lifting.
What areas can be treated with Sofwave?
Sofwave is commonly used to target areas such as the face and neck, addressing fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity. It can also be used off the face such as the chest, arms, and buttocks/thighs to improve cellulite.
What does the Sofwave™ treatment feel like?
Patients may feel a warm sensation on their skin as the ultrasound energy is delivered. An topical numbing cream is used to prior to treatment to alleviate discomfort. Following treatment, there are no sensations, and there is no need to apply special care to the skin. Patients may resume their daily activities quickly post-treatment.
How long does a Sofwave treatment session take?
A typical Sofwave session can take approximately 30 to 45 minutes, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
When can I expect to see the results?
Some patients have reported seeing immediate results as soon as 1 week following the treatment. The natural skin regeneration process can sometimes take up to 12 weeks, so patients are expected to see ongoing improvements during this period. The results of a single treatment can last at least one year.
Are there any side effects with Sofwave?
Side effects are generally mild and may include temporary redness or swelling. These effects typically resolve on their own shortly after the treatment. There is no downtime.
How many treatments are needed?
Typically, the treatment protocol calls for 1-2 treatments, depending on the patient’s skin condition.
Can Exosomes be used in conjunction with Sofwave?
Yes, combining Exosomes with Sofwave can complement the effects of the treatment, promoting enhanced results and supporting overall skin vitality.
