What is Sofwave?
Sofwave is a revolutionary skin-tightening and wrinkle-reduction treatment using ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen production. Unlike invasive methods such as ablative lasers, Sofwave delivers targeted energy to the skin’s mid-dermis layer without damaging the outer layer. This procedure requires almost no downtime making it a flexible treatment that doesn’t interrupt your schedule.
This treatment promotes natural regeneration by heating tissues, leading to new collagen formation. Sofwave uses SUPERB™ Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam technology to delives energy to only 1.5 mm in the mid-dermis which is the optimal depth to firm and tighten skin. The integrated cooling system, Sofcool™ protects the outer layer of skin so there is no down time and enables the device to reach deep to the layers it needs to treat.
Sofwave is FDA-cleared for treating fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin on the face, neck, and other areas including cellulite on your stomach or thighs. Patients often appreciate Sofwave for its safety, minimal discomfort, and short recovery time.
Sofwave Before and After: What Can You Expect?
Results from Sofwave treatments can be subtle yet transformative with some patients reporting remarkable results.
“We use 3D photography in additional to regular, and see a nice lift, thicker, firmer skin, tightened jawline, and a good few millimeters of eyebrow lift depending on the patient,” says DeVincentis. “Many patients notice improvements in skin tightness and texture within one to two months post-treatment, with optimal results appearing over three to six months. Before and after photos typically show smoother and firmer skin with fewer fine lines and wrinkles.”
Here are some key areas where Sofwave excels:
Face and forehead: Reduced crow’s feet and laugh lines
Neck and jawline: Enhanced contour and lifted appearance of neck
Décolletage: Smoother, more youthful skin
Because Sofwave stimulates collagen production gradually, the full effect builds over time. Patients love the natural-looking enhancements without the “overdone” or frozen appearance associated with some aesthetic treatments. It’s also a less invasive procedure as no surgery is required yet you still have a lifted and refreshed effect which adds youthfulness to your appearance.

How Long Does It Last?

Many patients choose to schedule annual maintenance sessions to sustain their results.
Why Choose This Procedure?
Sofwave stands out among other non-invasive skin treatments for several reasons:
– It’s quick and easy: A typical session lasts 45-60 minutes, making it a convenient lunchtime treatment.
– Little discomfort: Most patients report only mild warmth during the procedure, with topical numbing and Pronox.
– No downtime: You can resume your daily activities immediately
– Proven effectiveness: Clinical studies show significant wrinkle reduction and skin tightening.
Is Sofwave the Right Procedure for You?
Sofwave is ideal for people who want a non-invasive solution to address mild to moderate skin laxity and wrinkles. It’s also perfect for those looking to maintain youthful skin without undergoing surgery. However, if you have advanced skin sagging or deep wrinkles, you may need to combine it with other treatments for best results.
Sofwave represents the newest generation of anti-aging treatments, combining safety, effectiveness, and convenience. If you’re looking for a way to rejuvenate your appearance without the risks and recovery time associated with surgery, this revolutionary ultrasound therapy may be right for you.
