While we may get wiser as we get older, unfortunately, loose skin and wrinkles come along with that wisdom. As we enter our 30s, we begin to lose about 10% of our skin elasticity every decade. The result is less collagen and elastin in the skin, and this causes skin laxity, skin sagging, and crepey skin. Sagging and crepey skin can occur throughout the face and body, including around the eyes, forehead, neck and jowls, and the upper arms. Traditional skin excision procedures such as a Facelift or Arm Lift are very effective at reshaping and tightening the skin. However, not every patient is ready for such an invasive procedure.
Introducing the next generation skin treatment brought to you by Sofwave™ Medical. As offered in our Fort Worth office, Sofwave™ is a new, novel technology designed to improve skin laxity and to lift and tone your skin. It is a non-invasive, clinically proven, FDA-cleared ultrasound solution with no downtime.
Sofwave™ is a smart, yet simple skin treatment, and its breakthrough technology harnesses the power of ultrasound to stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid non-invasively to improve skin laxity, lift, and give you younger-looking skin without surgery, needles, downtime, or aftercare.
Sofwave™ technology is FDA-cleared for:
Exceptional Safety Profile:
High Patient Satisfaction:
Minimal downtime and optimal patient convenience:
Patients in Fort Worth will find that the fractional heating effect created by Sofwave’s unique ultrasound delivery stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin which leads to the reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.
The optimal depth for treating wrinkles is 1.5mm, at the level of the mid-dermis. Sofwave’s unique Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam SUPERB™ technology generates heat at this exact depth in the mid-dermis. Additionally, there is an integrated cooling mechanism Sofcool ™ that protects the uppermost skin layer from burning. Our body’s response to this focused energy delivery is neo-collagenesis, or the stimulation of new collagen. The result is the formation of new collagen leading to the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as a tightening and lifting effect on the skin.
As the ultrasound energy is delivered, you may feel warmness of the skin. We ensure your comfort by using topical anesthetic cream, but many patients find great relief using just the external forced air chiller that numbs the skin. Following the treatment, there is minimal to no pain and swelling, and aftercare is not required. Routine daily skin care can be resumed immediately post treatment.
You might notice some initial improvement within a week, but most patients will notice their full results at 3 months. It takes time for your body to naturally regenerate new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Clinical studies have shown that Sofwave results can last up to a year or more after just one treatment! Some patients will find optimal results with a second treatment, depending on the degree of skin laxity. Of course, everyone’s skin is different, and factors like your age, genetics, lifestyle, and skincare habits can all affect how long your results last.
Sofwave is a non-invasive treatment we offer in our Fort Worth office, which uses advanced ultrasound technology to improve skin laxity, lift, and add volume, giving you a more youthful appearance. It’s a great way to reduce wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin without needing needles or surgery. It is the ultimate lunchtime treatment – you can achieve noticeable results in a 30 to 60-minute session and return to your day!
Today there are various energy-based technologies designed to treat facial lines and wrinkles. Aggressive options (such as ablative lasers) can cause more damage to the skin surface, leading to a long healing period, downtime, and possible side effects. Radiofrequency microneedling treatments, such as Morpheus8, are great options, but require multiple treatments and aftercare for optimal results. Gentler, non-invasive solutions such as IPL are great for surface irregularities, but are not as effective on wrinkles and fine lines and usually require multiple treatments. Sofwave™’s unique technology enables the controlled delivery of energy, in terms of amount and location, while protecting the skin surface with an integrated cooling mechanism. Even better, there is no downtime.
Sofwave™ is a non-invasive treatment for skin tightening. Clinical trials have shown the technology to be effective and safe. Immediately post treatment, the skin may appear slightly red with limited swelling for up to a few hours post treatment.
As the ultrasound energy is delivered, you may feel warmness of the skin. Treatment is comfortable simply by applying a topical anesthetic cream or using the external skin chiller. Following the treatment, there are no sensations and there is no need to apply special care on the skin. Daily care can be resumed immediately post treatment.
You might notice some initial improvement within a week. Still, the magic happens gradually over the next 12 weeks as your skin naturally regenerates and produces new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. Clinical studies have shown that Sofwave results can last up to a year or more after just one treatment! Of course, everyone’s skin is different, and factors like your age, genetics, lifestyle, and skincare habits can all affect how long your results last.
Yes, you should be able to return to your normal activities immediately following your Sofwave treatment. Some may experience mild redness or swelling, typically subsiding within a few hours. No special post-treatment care is required. You can apply makeup and resume your day as usual.
Sofwave™ is the leader in non-invasive energy-based solutions. Our proprietary technology is proven to trigger neo-collagenesis, which increases collagen and stimulates elastin and hyaluronic acid production. This triple action counteracts the signs of aging, delivering noticeable natural results after just one treatment.
Yes, Sofwave is FDA-cleared to treat all skin types.
