Sofwave™ in Texas and Louisiana
At Sanova Dermatology in Texas and Louisiana, we offer Sofwave™, a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment designed to address skin laxity and improve the overall appearance of the skin. Sofwave™ utilizes advanced ultrasound technology to stimulate collagen production, leading to a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles and an improvement in skin firmness. This innovative technology is suitable for patients looking to achieve significant aesthetic enhancements without the downtime associated with more invasive procedures.
What is Sofwave™?
Sofwave™ is a state-of-the-art ultrasound treatment that uses a unique delivery method to target the mid-dermis at 1.5mm depth, optimizing tissue heating without damaging the skin’s surface. The ultrasound energy generates a thermal effect, which stimulates the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production processes. This rejuvenation process results in the firming and tightening of the skin over time.
What are the Benefits of Sofwave™?
Sofwave™ offers several benefits for individuals seeking non-surgical solutions for skin rejuvenation:
- Non-Invasive: Sofwave™ treatments are non-invasive, involving no surgery, needles, or extensive preparation. This makes the procedure an excellent option for patients looking for minimal disruption to their daily lives.
- Quick and Comfortable: Each session typically lasts about 30-45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Patients often describe the procedure as comfortable, with the sensation of the ultrasound energy perceived as manageable warmth.
- Suitable for All Skin Types: Sofwave™ is safe and effective for all skin types and tones, addressing one of the common limitations of other skin rejuvenation technologies.
- No Downtime: After a Sofwave treatment, patients can immediately return to their normal activities, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules.
- Effective Results: Many patients observe noticeable improvements in skin tightness and elasticity within a few weeks, with results continuing to enhance over three to six months as new collagen is produced.
What Areas Can Be Treated with Sofwave™?
Sofwave™ is versatile and can be used to improve the appearance of various facial areas, including:
- Forehead
- Eyebrows
- Cheeks and mid-face
- Neck and submental area
What is the Sofwave™ Treatment Like?
During treatment, the Sofwave™ device is applied to the target areas. Patients will feel short pulses of warm sensation as the ultrasound energy is delivered into the skin layers. The procedure is generally well-tolerated, and cooling measures are applied to ensure comfort throughout the session. The treatment can take 30 to 60 minutes to complete depending on the size and number of the treatment areas.
What Results Can I Expect from Sofwave™?
The results from Sofwave™ typically become noticeable within a few weeks as the body begins to generate new collagen. These improvements can continue to develop for up to six months post-treatment. The longevity of the results can vary but generally lasts for about a year or more, depending on the individual’s skin condition and aging process. To maintain the results, some patients may choose to have periodic maintenance treatments.
