Sofwave: A New Alternative for Skin Tightening

As we age, the production of collagen in our bodies decreases, resulting in less elastic, sagging skin, and the formation of wrinkles. The skin may also appear dull and dry, leading to a prematurely aged appearance. However, we can stimulate and slow down the formation of wrinkles using various technologies that help tighten the skin and encourage collagen production. This ensures that the skin remains elastic, with reduced wrinkles and a consistently smooth texture.

Sofwave™ is an innovative skin-tightening solution that utilizes SUPERB (Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam) technology. The Sofwave™ device emits concentrated, high-frequency ultrasound waves that penetrate the skin evenly and precisely. This process helps to smooth, tighten, and rejuvenate the skin, giving it a youthful appearance.

Principle of Operation of the Sofwave™ Device

The Sofwave™ device is a high-frequency ultrasound machine that emits thermal energy waves in parallel lines. Each shot releases energy across seven segments, targeting the middle to deep dermis layers of the skin at a depth of 1.5 millimeters. This process stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, leading to firmer, smoother skin and reduced wrinkles.

Highlights of the Sofwave™ Device

• Cooling System: The Sofwave™ device features a cooling system in the treatment head. During the procedure, a cooling sensation coats the epidermis, reducing the pain experienced.
• High Safety: Sofwave™ is a highly safe skin-tightening device.
• US FDA Approval: It is certified for safety by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (US FDA).

Benefits of Sofwave™

• Targeted Ultrasound Energy: Sofwave™ precisely delivers ultrasound energy to the middle dermis layer, reaching a depth of 1.5 millimeters, which is rich in collagen and elastin.
• Non-Surgical: The procedure is non-invasive, with no incisions, no downtime, and no side effects.
• Minimal Pain: During the treatment, the Sofwave™ device provides a cooling sensation from the treatment head, which reduces discomfort while delivering ultrasound energy.
• Immediate Results: Noticeable improvements are seen immediately after treatment, with optimal results visible after three months.
• Long-Lasting Effects: A single treatment can last up to one year.
