How Long Do Sofwave™ Results Last?

Because collagen loss starts to affect your skin in your 30s or even earlier, skin laxity is often the earliest sign of aging we notice. Sofwave™ is a noninvasive way to tighten skin on your face, neck, and body, letting you balance your desire for results with your need for a treatment that fits your active lifestyle. 

What is Sofwave™ and How Does It Work?

You’re probably familiar with ultrasound, which medical staff use to examine pregnancies or your organs. Sofwave™ uses the same ultrasound energy in a highly focused form called Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam (SUPERB™). This form of energy travels harmlessly through the skin to stimulate cells in the dermis, increasing collagen production. 

Sofwave™ is used to treat areas such as:

• Face (lines and wrinkles, brow area, jawline)
• Submental (under the chin) and neck area
• Abdomen, arms, and thighs
• Cellulite on the thighs and buttocks

How Long Do Sofwave™ Results Last?

While many skin-tightening treatments, even invasive ones, can require several sessions, many people will see their desired firmness and lift with a single Sofwave™ session. Others may benefit from repeating the treatment a month or two after the first one. 

Sofwave™ results take several months to develop as your skin produces more collagen. This increase in collagen can last a year or more. You can keep your results tight and smooth with annual maintenance sessions. 

As you age, you may notice that Sofwave™ does not provide the level of tightening you want anymore. Treatment options like Ellacor® are minimally invasive and can provide more dramatic lift and firmness but require some downtime. 

What are the Benefits of Sofwave™ Skin Tightening?

At Coolspa, all our treatments are selected to be the best options in their category. When it comes to noninvasive skin tightening, Sofwave™ leads the way for several reasons. 

No Downtime

Sofwave™ doesn’t damage your skin, so there’s no downtime required. Your skin may look red and feel warm for up to a few hours. You can return to work and your daily routine immediately, making Sofwave™ ideal for busy schedules. 

Advanced Cooling System

Sofwave™ comes with a specialized cooling system that maintains your skin’s surface at a comfortable temperature while the treatment heats the deep layers. This cooling makes Sofwave™ easy to tolerate with numbing cream, although we offer a range of options, such as laughing gas, for your comfort. 

Safe for Almost Anyone

Unlike treatments that use light energy, such as lasers, Sofwave™ is safe for any skin tone. Almost all healthy adults can have this treatment, although those with more significant sagging or textural issues may prefer a more intensive option. Good candidates have mild to moderate laxity on the face or body that they want to tighten.
