Sofwave is a ground-breaking device that stimulates collagen production in the skin using a patented Intense Ultrasound Beam (IUB) technique. The minimally invasive process is becoming increasingly popular as a safe and effective alternative to invasive procedures like traditional surgical facelifts. This innovative device is specifically designed to target delicate and sensitive areas like the face, neck and chest that may be challenging to treat with other minimally invasive techniques.
Sofwave delivers precise and controlled bursts of ultrasonic radiation to the intended location using IUB technology. This skin-lifting procedure is quite similar to Ultherapy. However, the depth is less (1.5mm as opposed to 4.5mm), which means it focuses on skin-lifting specifically on the neck, submental area and brows without damaging the desirable fat in the face.
The device emits ultrasonic waves at a frequency of 3 MHz, which is ideal for penetration of the skin to the necessary depth without damaging nearby tissue. This treatment has received complete FDA approval for lifting the brows, submental (under the chin) and neck, as well as for eliminating fine lines and wrinkles. Sofwave heats the tissues to 60 to 70 degrees Celsius. The collagen is thus damaged or denatured, encouraging the fibroblast cells to produce new collagen and elastin. The average treatment session lasts less than an hour, and the majority of patients report no pain or recovery time. The results are typically visible within a few weeks, with continued improvement over time as the body's natural healing process takes effect.
Sofwave offers a plethora of benefits over other non-invasive skin tightening treatments, including:
Non-invasive: If you want a lifted appearance without going under the knife, Sofwave is an excellent option as it is a non-invasive treatment and does not involve any downtime. You may experience some redness after the treatment, but it subsides quickly.
Safe procedure: The technology is safe and has been cleared by the FDA for use in the United States.
Effective: Patients notice a significant reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles after just one treatment.
Quick procedure: The procedure can be finished within an hour, making it an excellent option for those with busy schedules.
Versatile: While Sofwave can be incredibly effective for those with mild to moderate skin laxity, it can also be used as a preventative measure for younger patients who wish to retain collagen.
The peak of collagen and elastin stimulation occurs between three and six months, and the best results can be expected six to eight months after the treatment. However, some people begin to notice a difference in as short as a week or a month. It is crucial to keep in mind that results are temporary and not as dramatic as after surgery; they usually last for nine to twelve months. You need regular treatment to maintain the results.
