Sofwave™

What is it?

Sofwave is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that firms your skin using ultrasound energy. It restores firmness and definition without harming the skin for long-lasting, no-downtime results.

What can it Treat?

Sofwave™ can treat:

  • Full Face
  • Brow area
  • Neck skin
  • Submental (under the chin) area
  • Lines and wrinkles
  • Abdomen
  • Arms
  • Cellulite on buttocks
  • Cellulite on thighs

Why Sofwave™?

Benefits of Sofwave™ include:

  • Non-invasive
  • Quick and convenient
  • Little to no downtime
  • Stimulates new collagen production
  • Natural-looking lift and definition
  • Customizable to target your problem areas

The aging process begins to affect our skin before we start to see its results. Your skin’s levels of collagen, the key structural protein that makes skin firm, resilient, and smooth, peak in your 20s and begin to decline. This collagen loss commonly appears as skin laxity or loss of definition in areas like the brows, neck, jawline, and under the chin. At the same time, this laxity can lead to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

Sofwave™ tightens and firms your skin without incisions or recovery time. It uses powerful, focused ultrasound energy that works without harming the skin to trigger new collagen and elastin production, improving your skin’s texture and restoring your facial contours.

Learn More About Sofwave™

  • Personalized treatment plan 
  • Full range of comfort options, including oral sedation, laughing gas, or IV
  • We begin with a thorough aesthetic evaluation including dermal thickness

Sofwave™ uses the same ultrasound energy used for body scans but is highly focused on one small area at a time, increasing the amount of energy transferred to the deep layers of your skin. This SUPERB™ (Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam) technology maximizes your results while cooling your skin to maintain your comfort.

The ultrasound energy is absorbed in the dermis as heat, stimulating fibroblast cells to increase their collagen production. The heat also causes collagen fibers in the dermis to contract, providing more lift. These improvements in collagen levels smooth and tighten your skin over time.

Your Aethos team will prepare you for your Sofwave™ treatment by applying a numbing cream. The handpiece is then moved over your skin, treating small areas at a time. People often report that each area increases in temperature until it feels hot, but the applicator moves to another area before it becomes uncomfortable. Treatment takes about 45 minutes, depending on the specific areas targeted. More advanced measures to ensure your comfort are available.

You can return to work or any other activities immediately after your Sofwave™ treatment because it comes with little to no downtime. The most downtime you might experience is redness and warmth lasting up to a few hours. These effects should not hinder your daily routine, making Sofwave™ convenient for busy people.

The powerful, focused ultrasound energy that Sofwave™ uses works deeply within the skin, creating a significant increase in collagen development. Many people will achieve their desired results with one treatment, while others may benefit from a second treatment around one to three months after the first.

Because collagen production takes time, your results will start to appear after several weeks and continue to develop for three months or more. You can expect to enjoy your firmer, smoother skin for up to a year, and many people schedule an annual maintenance session to keep the area lifted and youthful.

Sofwave™ is an ideal treatment for many people who want to correct mild to moderate skin laxity and reduce lines and wrinkles. Benefits of this advanced skin tightening treatment include:

  • No surgery, incisions, or recovery time
  • Safe ultrasound energy that can be used on all skin types and tones
  • Restores lift and shape to the brows, neck, and under the chin
  • Smooths fine lines and wrinkles
  • Short, convenient treatment sessions
  • Long-lasting results

Ultrasound energy is safe to use on almost anyone. Because it does not use light energy like a laser, it can be used on darker skin tones with no increased risk. Candidates typically want to address mild to moderate signs of aging. For those who wish to explore multiple skin tightening modalities, we can recommend additional treatments like Ellacor® or Morpheus8.
