Sofwave is an FDA-cleared ultrasound device for the treatment of fine lines and wrinkles in aging skin. The treatment is non-invasive and uses next-generation synchronous ultrasound parallel beam technology that is designed to maximize patient convenience and minimize downtime. This means you will notice a reduction in wrinkles and fine lines for much smoother skin after just one quick, convenient, and comfortable office treatment. You don’t have to worry about needles or any of the risks associated with anesthesia and surgery.

The Sofwave system generates ultrasound energy to produce a fractional heating effect in the skin. The equipment is designed to deliver the ultrasound energy and heat at just the right depth so that there is no damage to the skin surface or underlying structures. The heat stimulates the formation of new collagen and elastin in the dermis (the middle layer of skin). Collagen and elastin are the proteins that give the skin its smooth, youthful appearance. By stimulating the growth of new collagen and elastin, the Sofwave treatment leads to tighter, firmer, smoother skin with a reduction in wrinkles and fine lines.

A typical Sofwave treatment for the full face lasts around 30-45 minutes. This means you can fit it into your busy lifestyle, perhaps even schedule a “lunchtime facial.” The treatment itself is easy to perform and pain-free with no downtime, meaning you can return to your active lifestyle immediately afterward.

Many patients see noticeable improvement in their fine lines and wrinkles after just one Sofwave treatment. However, some patients may require an additional treatment, depending on the amount of skin damage.
