How much does Sofwave cost and other questions to ask your provider!
Considering Sofwave ultrasound facial treatments for your fine lines and wrinkles?
If so, you likely have a lot of questions to ask your Sofwave provider. These may include:
Am I a candidate for Sofwave?
A good candidate for Sofwave is typically, those in their 30s and older who have mild to moderate skin aging. The potential patient should have some degree of fine lines and wrinkles.
How does Sofwave work?
Sofwave is a next-generation Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology SUPERB™ to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The ultrasound energy bypasses your skin’s upper layers and directly targets the dermis, where it stimulates your skin’s natural collagen and elastin supply. Collagen and elastin are two of the main structural proteins found in skin that are responsible for its supple and youthful properties.
Is it approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)?
Sofwave is currently FDA cleared for the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
Who can provide Sofwave treatments?
Proper training, certification, and experience are required to assure a safe and effective Sofwave treatment. This will vary by state, and physicians may delegate the procedure to be performed by nurses, aestheticians or other staff under their direction.

Are the Sofwave treatments painful?
Pain is relative, but most people tolerate the treatment very well with just a little numbing cream.
How many Sofwave treatments will I need?
You will see noticeable results after one 30-45-minute treatment, but typically, two treatments are recommended to achieve maximum results. Your Sofwave provider will develop a plan to help you meet your aesthetic goals.
Is there any recovery process after Sofwave treatment?
Dr. Ortiz
“You can go right back to your normal life and activities following the treatment. Makeup and sunscreen can be worn immediately as the skin’s surface is not affected,” says Dr. Ortiz.Is there a risk of burning with Sofwave?
Sofwave comprises an integrated cooling mechanism that protects the skin’s outermost layer. The technology enables treatment at the right depth while ensuring that there is no damage done to the underlying structures beneath the dermis, or skin’s outer layer.
Can Sofwave contour the lower face?
Because the procedure boosts production of collagen and elastin under your skin’s surface, it can improve the lower face.
How does Sofwave compare to thread lifts?
Thread lift treatment lifts sagging mid-facial skin, including the cheeks and deeper folds, using temporary sutures. Sofwave builds up the collagen and elastin supply under your skin. A thread lift is considered a minimally invasive procedure, rather than a noninvasive procedure such as Sofwave Ultrasound.
