We continued our accelerated growth plans in the North American market during the year. In addition, we opened important additional markets in Asia and Europe, which already contributed millions to our top line. Today, we are also reporting another important key performance indicator of $2.6 million in pulse sales, a testimony for the continued increase in the Sofwave™ device utilization by the physicians and strong patient demand for the treatments we offer. In the third quarter, we faced inventory shortages due to global supply chain challenges. However, we were able to address these challenges, increase our inventory levels, and we are prepared for accelerated growth in 2022.”Dr. Shimon Eckhouse, co-founder and Chairman
Dr. Shimon Eckhouse, co-founder and Chairman of the board: “2021 was a year of continued growth and investments in our sales and marketing infrastructure, alongside a significant increase in our revenues. Sofwave™ operates in a fast-growing market with high patient demand for non-invasive treatments for skin revitalization and brings innovative and disruptive technology to this space. In November 2021, we also announced that we received another major FDA approval for additional indications for lifting the eyebrow, sub-mental (beneath the chin), and facial neck areas. In August of 2021, we announced that we received approval from the Korean Ministry of Foods and Drugs safety to market our device in a market considered one of the fastest-growing markets in our industry. These approvals create major opportunities for growth over the next years. We also continue to develop new technologies and new indications to address the globally growing demand for aesthetic treatments.”Sofwave™, the aesthetic device company, made its initial public offering on the Tel-Aviv Stock Exchange in May 2021.
