A BREAKTHROUGH ULTRASOUND TECHNOLOGY

• Is the treatment safe for all skin types?

  YES. Ultrasound absorption is determined by the microscopic and bulk mechanical properties of tissue and is independent of skin color or pigmentation.

• How does Sofwave™ fit into my practice?

  Sofwave™ – the next-generation ultrasound technology from Sofwave™ Medical, an emerging leader in energy-based aesthetic devices, will revolutionize how you think about noninvasive devices. Inconsistent results are a thing of the past with Sofwave™.

  What Sets Sofwave™ Apart:
  • Simple intuitive treatment protocol with a short learning curve
  • Zero downtime and control of treatment comfort with topical only, no post treatment care
  • Easy to delegate procedure
  • Favorable safety profile – no epidermal damage, nor potential injury to nerves, bones, vessels and fat tissue
  • Short treatment visit at the clinic (COVID-19)

• How is Sofwave™ different from other existing modalities?

  Sofwave™ differs in many ways to existing solutions:

  Sofwave™ generates fractionated high-intensity, high-frequency ultrasonic pulses which causes controlled thermal damage, by elevating the temperature to 60-70°C in the dermis. Direct contact cooling is used to cool the skin’s surface while sparing the epidermal layer. Sofwave is easy to use, can be used on any skin type and performed any time of the year.

• Every company says their technology reduces wrinkles. Why should I believe Sofwave™ will be different?

  It is all in the numbers. It is well known that at least 25% of the tissue (fractional coagulation coverage) must be regenerated to result in a real change in skin elasticity. In a single, double pass treatment, or in a series of 2 (two) Sofwave™ treatments, that threshold is easily reached.

• How can it work so quickly?

  Sofwave’s™ Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology SUPERB™ uses 7 synchronous beams of ultrasound to heat a significant amount of tissue quickly. Sofwave incorporates 7 transducers which operate simultaneously to deliver high energy, enabling a large fractional coverage effect in the mid dermis. These transducers create a volumetric directional thermal impact in the mid-dermis parallel to the skin and to the inherent vectors of skin elasticity. The direct coupling of the transducers to the skin enables precise energy delivery into the dermis with no epidermal damage.

• How does Sofwave™ work?

  Sofwave™ Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology SUPERB™ is a next generation ultrasound device intended to treat fine lines and wrinkles. Using a breakthrough patented technology that generates a Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beams, the device emits a high intensity, high frequency, parallel ultrasound beam array through seven ultrasound transducers that are in direct contact with the skin.

  Treatment of sagging skin is optimized when the thermal effect is localized in the mid-dermis. The high frequency, parallel beams of Sofwave, enable most of the thermal effect to remain localized between 0.5 and 2mm within the dermis, with the center of the treatment effect in the depth of 1.5mm. The unique low divergence, high intensity beam eliminates the need for the beam to be focused, and the ultrasonic energy dissipates rapidly beyond a depth of 2mm, thus leaving the underlying deep dermal, hypodermal, nerve and bony structures unaffected. Another unique feature of Sofwave is the unique SofCool™ technology.

  Each transducer is individually cooled and in direct contact with the epidermis during treatment. This ensures a uniform effect in the tissue and repeatable, controllable energy deposition in the skin without damaging the epidermal (outer) skin.
