Sofwave Little Rock
The premier non-surgical choice for lifting the eyebrow, double chin, and neck areas
Think you might be ready for a lift? Over time, collagen and elastin production slows—which causes signs of aging such as fine lines and wrinkles, loose skin on the face and along the jaw, and thin, crepey skin on the neck. With innovative Sofwave™ technology, we can reverse signs of aging and even slow the development of new ones, with no surgery required.
What is Sofwave?
Sofwave remodels the skin beneath the surface using Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam technology (SUPERB™) to safely heat the “mid-dermal tissue” of the skin, stimulating your natural collagen production. Sofwave has been cleared by the FDA as a non-surgical skin lifting solution to lift the eyebrow, submental (double chin), and neck areas, as well as to diminish fine lines and wrinkles.
How does Sofwave work?
Sofwave stimulates production of new collagen (the protein that keeps skin looking lifted and youthful) by using SUPERB™ technology to pass multiple ultrasound beams through the skin’s surface and heat the dermis layer of skin at a precise depth (1.5mm) and temperature (60-70 degrees). Non-surgical skin lifting causes your natural healing processes to rejuvenate collagen fibers and boost collagen production to soften fine lines and wrinkles and visibly lift the skin.
What are the benefits of Sofwave?
For patients who want to achieve a lifted, more youthful appearance but are not ready for a traditional facelift, Sofwave achieves noticeable lifting effects without a surgical procedure. Our patients enjoy numerous benefits from Sofwave non-surgical skin lifting including:
- Patients can get right back to their everyday activities
- Fast, 30-45 minute treatment with minimal downtime
- Improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Safe, non-invasive technology (Sofwave’s integrated cooling system, Sofcool™, protects the surface layer of skin from overheating)
- Treats all skin types
- Noticeable results after 1 treatment (these effects will continue to improve for the next several weeks)
- May delay the need for surgical lifting procedures
- FDA-cleared to lift the eyebrow, lax skin of the submental tissue and neck
Additionally, Sofwave non-surgical skin lifting is safe for all skin types and tones. More melanated skin tones are prone to burns with most light-based therapies currently on the market. Because Sofwave uses ultrasound waves rather than light, patients can receive safe and effective non-surgical skin lifting results regardless of their skin tone.
What is a Sofwave treatment like?
Once we have determined that non-surgical skin lifting will achieve your aesthetic goals, a numbing cream will be applied to the treatment area to enhance your comfort during treatment.
During treatment
Your technician will apply ultrasound gel to the treatment area and pass the Sofwave wand over your skin to deliver ultrasound waves to your dermis layer. During your non-surgical skin lifting treatment, you may feel some mild discomfort that quickly resolves as the wand moves away from each area. If needed, we can make adjustments to ensure you are comfortable. Treatment lasts about 30-45 minutes.
After treatment
Once your treatment is complete, we will apply a hydrating serum to soothe any redness, which should resolve about 30 minutes to 2 hours after your appointment.
Am I a good candidate for Sofwave?
Each patient will experience the effects of aging differently, but here are some indicators you may benefit from non-surgical skin lifting:
- You are in general good health
- You are in your 30s or older
- You have some degree of fine lines and wrinkles
- You have mild to moderate skin laxity (skin looseness or sagging) of the face and neck
