Welcome to The Skin Center, your trusted destination for advanced skincare solutions. We’re proud to offer Sofwave, a highly effective and increasingly popular treatment that uses cutting-edge ultrasound technology to rejuvenate the skin. Ideal for those seeking non-invasive anti-aging solutions, Sofwave delivers remarkable results by tightening the skin and reducing the appearance of wrinkles with minimal downtime.
Procedure & Effectiveness
Sofwave uses innovative ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen production, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and tightening the skin. The beauty of Sofwave lies in its ability to achieve these remarkable results in a single session for most patients, with improvements visible as the skin naturally regenerates collagen over time. Ideal outcomes include visibly lifted and tightened skin, diminished appearance of age-related skin laxity, and a smoother, more even complexion, making Sofwave an excellent choice for those seeking a non-surgical approach to achieve a rejuvenated, younger appearance. The first session is a 30-minute consultation, then the treatment is typically about 60 minutes, and requires no downtime.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does sofwave compare to other anti-aging treatments?
Sofwave stands out among anti-aging treatments for its innovative use of ultrasound technology, providing a non-invasive solution to skin aging without the need for downtime. Unlike lasers or invasive surgical procedures, Sofwave is suitable for all skin types and delivers uniform results across treated areas, focusing on reducing wrinkles and tightening the skin with minimal discomfort.
Can Sofwave treat all areas of aging neck and face?
Sofwave is specially designed to target and treat moderate to severe wrinkles and skin laxity on the face and neck. Its precision ultrasound energy reaches the mid-dermal layer of the skin, making it effective for lifting and tightening areas that show signs of aging, such as the brow line, under the chin, and the neckline.
Can Sofwave be combined with other treatments?
Yes, Sofwave can be safely combined with other treatments. We will advise you on the best combination based on your specific skin goals during your consultation.
How many treatments are needed?
Typically, the treatment protocol calls for 1-2 treatments, depending on the patient’s skin condition.
What does the Sofwave treatment feel like?
As the ultrasound energy is delivered, you may feel warmness of the skin. Treatment is comfortable simply by applying a topical anesthetic cream just prior to the treatment. Following the treatment, there are no sensations and there is no need to apply special skin care. Daily care can be resumed immediately post treatment.
When can I expect to see the results?
The collagen regeneration process can sometimes take up to 12 weeks, so patients are expected to see ongoing improvements in the 3-month period after their treatment.
In Sofwave’s clinical trials, results have been shown in as little as, one month post treatment.
Are there any side-effects with Sofwave?
Sofwave is a non-invasive treatment for skin tightening. Clinical trials have shown the technology to be effective and safe.
Immediately post treatment, the skin may appear slightly red with limited swelling for up to a few hours post treatment.
