Sofwave® is a noninvasive aesthetic treatment that uses ultrasound technology to stimulate new collagen and elastin. It is FDA-cleared for improving facial lines and wrinkles and for lifting the eyebrow and lax tissue of the neck and submental area (under the chin).

Sofwave® delivers controlled ultrasound energy into the mid-dermis, creating a thermal response that stimulates the body’s natural collagen- and elastin-remodeling process. Integrated cooling helps protect the surface of the skin during treatment.

Sofwave® is FDA-cleared to improve facial lines and wrinkles and to lift the eyebrow and lax skin of the neck and submental area. Your treatment area at ABC Skin™ will be selected based on your anatomy, concerns and individualized treatment plan.

Sensation varies from person to person. Because Sofwave® creates controlled heat within the skin, you may experience periods of warmth or discomfort during treatment. Sofwave® incorporates integrated cooling to protect the skin’s surface, and your comfort will be considered throughout your treatment.

Sofwave® is designed for minimal downtime. In its clinical study, no device-related adverse events were reported, and patients did not experience persistent pain or tenderness that delayed their return to normal activities. Individual experiences can vary.

Collagen remodeling happens gradually. Improvements may begin following treatment and can continue developing over approximately 12 weeks as the collagen-regeneration process progresses. Results were demonstrated after a single treatment in Sofwave® clinical studies.

Sofwave® works by stimulating your own collagen-remodeling response, but skin continues to age naturally. How long an individual result remains visible can vary based on factors such as age, skin condition and lifestyle. ABC Skin™ can recommend an appropriate maintenance strategy based on your skin and long-term goals.

Sofwave®'s patient materials state that the typical protocol calls for one to two treatments, depending on skin condition and the provider’s recommendation. At ABC Skin™, your treatment plan will be individualized rather than automatically prescribing the same number of sessions to every client.

Potentially. At ABC Skin™, Sofwave® can be considered as part of your broader ABC + S Method™ Skin Roadmap rather than as an isolated treatment. The timing and combination of treatments should be determined individually based on your skin, treatment history and goals.

Sofwave® may be an option for adults interested in a noninvasive approach to visible facial lines, wrinkles or laxity in appropriate treatment areas. Sofwave® clinical studies included a range of skin types, but individual candidacy still depends on factors such as your anatomy, skin condition, medical history and treatment goals. A consultation is the best way to determine whether Sofwave® belongs in your Skin Roadmap.
