Common Questions
What is Sofwave?
Sofwave is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared ultrasound treatment that boosts collagen production to firm skin and reduce wrinkles. Using SUPERB™ technology, it targets the mid-dermis for rejuvenation without harming the skin’s surface, offering a safe, effective, and low-downtime solution for all skin types.
What is Sofwave Body Treatment Mapping?
In a Sofwave Body Treatment Mapping visit, you will meet with one of our staff to determine the area to be treated on the body with Sofwave. Our staff will take photos, measure the area to be treated, and provide a personalized treatment plan and pricing for you. The cost of this visit will be applied to your Sofwave treatment. For treatments on the body, we recommend two treatment sessions, 1 month apart. At the Sofwave Body Treatment Mapping visit, you will have the opportunity to pre-pay for your treatments and get 15% off.
This Sofwave Body Treatment Mapping is NOT necessary prior to Sofwave Brow Lift or Sofwave Lower Face/Jawline, as these treatment areas are more standardized.
What areas can be treated with Sofwave?
We love using Sofwave to lift the brows and to tighten and lift the jawline / jowls. In addition, Sofwave can be used on areas of skin laxity or cellulite on the body including the upper arms, abdomen, thighs, buttocks, or other areas with cellulite.
How do I prepare?
Preparing for a Sofwave treatment is simple, with no special skincare routine or downtime required. Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup, lotions, or skincare products. Avoid excessive sun exposure and discontinue retinoids or strong exfoliants a few days before treatment if advised by your provider.
What can I expect during treatment?
During a Sofwave treatment, the handheld device will be placed on the skin to deliver ultrasound energy in pulses. This creates a progressive warming sensation as collagen production is stimulated. The procedure typically lasts 30–45 minutes, with mild discomfort and no downtime, allowing you to resume normal activities immediately after.
When will I see results?
Sofwave delivers gradual, natural-looking skin rejuvenation, with improvements in firmness, fine lines, and wrinkles appearing over 3 to 6 months as collagen builds. Mild laxity improves with a single treatment, while moderate laxity often requires 2-3 treatments (depending on severity). While Sofwave can enhance skin tightness and smoothness, it does not replace surgical procedures for more severe laxity. Results vary but typically last up to a year, with maintenance treatments recommended as needed.
