SofwaveTM Treatment In NYC

A Unique Skin Rejuvenation, 
Tightening, and Lift

What is SofwaveTM?

Sofwave™ is a new technology that makes the skin look younger. This device uses ultrasound for multiple purposes. It can lift eyebrows, reduce chin fat, firm the neck, tone arms, treat acne scars, improve cellulite, and reduce wrinkles.

How SofwaveTM work?

It uses unique ultrasound to gently warm the skin, stimulating collagen with its SUPERB™ technology. The integrated cooling system ensures that the skin’s surface remains unaffected, making the procedure downtime-free.

The ultrasound beams travel through the tissue, at the optimal depth of 1.5 mm in the mid-dermis. Collagen stimulation at this specific depth ensures the most effective tightening results. We avoid unnecessary deeper penetration to prevent potential adverse side effects and minimize discomfort.

What are the advantages of SofwaveTM?

It improves connective tissue quality by boosting collagen and elastin, giving impressive outcomes. Notably, all skin types can safely use it and you can apply it to various body areas. This versatility allows for year-round use, emphasizing consistent effectiveness.

What are the FDA clearance for SofwaveTM in the United States?

  • Improve facial fine lines and wrinkles,
  • Neck firming,
  • Lift the eyebrow,
  • Lift lax submental (beneath the chin) and neck tissue,
  • Improvement of cellulite appearance,
  • Arm toning and lift,
  • Acne scars.

Sofwave for wrinkles

It effectively addresses wrinkles and lines stimulating collagen production. Imagine someone delicately ironing your skin, restoring its texture and firmness.

While Sofwave™ yields impressive outcomes on its own, it’s essential to recognize that it is just one rejuvenation method. Combining it with other minimally invasive procedures can provide a comprehensive approach to improving the skin.

Sofwave for the non-surgical facelift

The stimulation of collagen results in the toning and tightening of the skin, providing a natural lift. Changes are better seen in the jowls, cheeks, and temples, which improve the shape and contour of the face.

Sofwave for jawline sagging

It helps improve the jawline by boosting collagen, which lifts and tightens the area naturally. In the early stages of sagging, it can function as a standalone solution. In severe cases, using it with other methods makes it even more effective for improving the jawline.

Sofwave for submental fat reduction

It contributes to skin tightening, visibly improving the appearance of the submental zone and reducing the prominence of fat. Combining Sofwave™ treatment with Kybella (deoxycholic acid) injectable treatments and other methods can effectively address submental concerns. Doctors may use it after liposuction to make the skin look even better.

Sofwave for eyebrow lift

Sofwave™ can assist in achieving a mild brow lift by stimulating collagen around the ocular zone. This is particularly suitable for patients in the age range of 22 to the early 50s with a mild amount of upper brow sagging.

Sofwave for acne scar treatment

The Sofwave™ technology has recently gained approval for addressing acne scars. Stimulating collagen primarily achieves improvement in acne scars, especially for atrophic acne scars. Considering an optimal approach involves combining it with other procedures, such as subcision, and utilizing biostimulatory injections like Sculptra and Radiesse and laser treatments.

Sofwave for neck rejuvenation

Sofwave may smooth the neck and reduce wrinkles. Using Sofwave™ with other treatments (IPL photofacial, lasers, or injectables) can enhance neck even more.

Sofwave for cellulite improvement

Cellulite, a common condition, can be challenging to improve, often requiring a combination of methods for effective treatment. For cellulite reduction, the best method is to separate fat using subcision. After that, a doctor may use collagen stimulating injectables.

Sofwave™ helps improve skin by making it smoother and firmer through lifting and flattening the surface. This addition further contributes to the smooth appearance of cellulite, emphasizing the comprehensive and synergistic nature of the treatment.

Sofwave for the arms

It received approval to improve sagging skin and arm skin tightening, a commonly overlooked issue that ages people’s appearance.

Sofwave for other indications

Sofwave™ is safe and effective for use on the skin, even though it is not FDA approved for certain applications. One notable and effective application is addressing knees sagging, which is especially challenging to improve.

How Sofwave differ from Emface?

Emface is a device that employs radiofrequency energy and electrostimulation to induce collagen and muscle stimulation. Its primary goal is to stimulate underlying muscles and tone the skin of the face. In contrast to Sofwave, Emface is not a single treatment; it typically involves four sessions at weekly intervals.

How Sofwave differ from Fraxel?

Fraxel is a laser technology designed for skin resurfacing, targeting pigmentation, wrinkles, and various skin imperfections. However, it does not provide the same skin tightening and lifting effects as Sofwave.

How Sofwave differ from Ultherapy?

Sofwave and Ultherapy both use ultrasound to stimulate collagen, but they have some differences. Ultherapy’s ultrasound can penetrate to the deeper layers of the skin, reaching up to 5 mm. However, this extended penetration makes the treatment longer and potentially more uncomfortable.

While Ultherapy treatments may be more expensive, they often require fewer maintenance sessions. Despite these variations, both treatments yield comparable results in collagen stimulation and skin rejuvenation. The choice between them may depend on individual preferences and considerations such as treatment duration and comfort level.

How Sofwave differs from Morpheus8?

Morpheus8 utilizes a combination of microneedling and radiofrequency technology, penetrating to various depths to stimulate collagen and resurface the skin. Typically, achieving the desired effect requires a series of treatments. Morpheus8 slightly tightens skin, while Sofwave gives stronger results with a lifting effect.

How Sofwave differs from Thermage?

Thermage tightens skin using radiofrequency, especially for delicate areas like under eyes, inner thighs, or arms. In contrast, Sofwave provides versatility as users can use it across various areas of the body. The choice between Thermage and Sofwave may depend on specific treatment goals and the targeted areas of the body.

How do you perform Sofwave treatment?

Our dermatologist will evaluate you, take photos, and answer any questions you have during the treatment. To ensure your comfort, we employ various numbing modalities, and the numbing process may last up to 1 hour. The treatment usually takes 30-60 minutes, so we suggest setting aside about 2 hours for the whole process.

Is treatment with Sofwave painful?

We value transparency, and it’s important to acknowledge that Sofwave treatment can be uncomfortable. Recognizing that pain levels vary among individuals, we prioritize your comfort by offering various numbing options. We have different options like pills, local anesthesia, and shots to make the process comfortable based on what you want and need. Our goal is to ensure that you have a more comfortable experience during the Sofwave treatment.

Are there any side effects with Sofwave treatments?

Sofwave is a highly safe procedure that is suitable for every skin type. It incorporates a specialized cooling system designed to minimize the risk of burns and blisters. By choosing a provider with extensive training, you ensure that they perform the procedure with maximum safety and effectiveness.

Can Sofwave cause fat loss?

Sofwave penetrates to a depth of 1.5 mm into the skin, remaining more superficial than fat layers. Fat loss is not a known complication of Sofwave treatment. The treatment targets the skin and collagen to tighten and rejuvenate it without affecting the fat layers underneath.

How long effects of Sofwave last?

Doctors advise having additional treatments every 1 to 1.5 years. To maintain the best results, severe laxity or sagging may require more frequent treatments.

Is there a downtime and aftercare after Sofwave treatment?

One of the major advantages of this treatment is that there is no downtime involved. Unlike other cosmetic procedures that may require a recovery period, Sofwave treatment allows individuals to resume their daily activities immediately after the session.

After a Sofwave treatment session, some individuals may experience mild redness or swelling in the treated area. However, these side effects are temporary and typically subside within a few hours. After the treatment, people can use makeup or skincare products right away to hide redness or swelling.

Are there a condtraindications for Sofwave treatments?

Patients with severe sun damage, loose skin, and sagging should consult a plastic surgeon for a face lift instead. However, this procedure can still be useful for patients who cannot have surgery or do not want to have surgery.

How much Sofwave cost?

The cost varies depending on the areas we treat, ranging from $800 to over $3000. Pricing depends on treatment and personalized plans for each patient’s needs. Look beyond price, as treatment quality depends on provider experience.

Does Sofwave work?

Most patinents see improvements already a few days after Sofwave treatments. However, the results are best appreciated after 4-12 weeks after the treatmemt.
