Sofwave works on the SMS Layer of the skin to tighten and lift. As it causes no break in the skin, there are no contra-indications specially patient with medical conditions who would ordinarily be discouraged from having energy based devices. Patients of all skin tones will benefit from this treatment. Sofwave can be used at any age. For candidates under the age of 30 this is a great preventative treatment. For those of you over 30 it’s great to defy the signs of ageing specially in the lower face and neck.

Sofwave is an incredible device that promises to deliver results after single session. However for those with more advanced skin needs and goals 2 sessions maybe recommended 8-12 weeks apart. The maintenance of results is also straight forward with most patients opting for a treatment repeated once every 1-3 years, this depends on your skin condition and age.

You will be given a local anaesthetic cream for upto 1 hour before the procedure to reduce any discomfort during the procedure. You may experience some mild discomfort as the skin tightening takes effect but this is very transient. You may feel some discomfort for an hour after your treatment but this subsides relatively quickly.

The device works by changing the biology of your skin. The skin structure will begin to improve after one week and continue to remodel and give you optimal results at 3 months. As the skin ages over time the effects of the treatment will begin to wear off gradually after 12-18 months.

There is no downtime after your Sofwave treatment. The skin remains fully intact with little disturbance to the upper most layer of the skin. This means you can go back to your skincare and makeup routine as normal with no limitations of your daily activity. There is no social downtime with sofwave, no redness, no bruising or swelling.

Sofwave can be combined with threadlifts, anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers. We advise that you wait 2-3 weeks to have any treatments directly in the treated zone. Treatments can however be done simultaneously in other areas of the face.
