Sofwave™

What is it?

Sofwave™ is a modern, non-invasive treatment that uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production. It promotes a lifting effect on the eyebrows, neck and submentonian region (under the chin) and an improvement in facial lines and wrinkles.

 

How does it work?

Sofwave™ uses a state-of-the-art technology, SUPERB™ (Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam), which stands for “synchronous ultrasound parallel beam”.

The ultrasound is emitted through 7 transducers in a parallel and simultaneous manner that work at the ideal depth, 1.5milimetres, at the junction of the epidermis and dermis. Its objective is to generate an increase in temperature in this location, between 60-70ºC, creating small lesions which form a scar and which have the natural response of producing new collagen.

 

Who is a candidate?

This treatment is suitable for anyone who shows signs of light to moderate flaccidity and does not wish to resort to a surgical method, or for those who are looking for a preventive treatment.

How long does the session last?

On average, around 30-60 minutes. After the session you may present some swelling and erythema on the skin, which will disappear in a few hours. There is no need for recovery time and you can resume your daily routine with total normality immediately after the treatment.

 

Is it painful?

As this is a treatment that generates heat, it is common to feel some discomfort throughout the session. Therefore, before treatment begins, an anaesthetic cream is placed on the area to be treated to make the procedure as comfortable as possible. Sofwave™ also includes a Sofcool cooling system that protects the surface of the skin throughout the treatment.

 

Is it safe?

Yes. Sofwave™ is a non-surgical procedure that is FDA approved and rigorous clinical studies and scientific publications worldwide ensure its effectiveness and safety, with side effects being particularly rare.

How often should it be performed?

This treatment is performed only once a year in order to maintain the results obtained. Collagen (a protein that our body naturally produces and which firms our skin) begins to decline from the age of 25. Therefore, treatments that stimulate collagen, such as Sofwave™, are considered preventative and corrective in terms of anti-ageing and can be performed even by younger people.

 

How long do the results last?

The results are visible immediately after the session. However, the maximum lifting effect will only be visible after 3 months. As the collagen formation process continues, improvements in skin quality can be noticeable up to 6 months after treatment.
