Sofwave uses Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam (SUPERB™) technology to deliver ultrasound energy to the mid-dermis at approximately 1.5 mm. Integrated cooling helps protect the skin surface. The treatment stimulates collagen and elastin, involves minimal downtime, and results vary.

01
What is Sofwave therapy?
Sofwave™ is a non-invasive ultrasound treatment that delivers energy to the mid-dermis to stimulate collagen and elastin. It is FDA-cleared for specific aesthetic indications, including improving facial lines and wrinkles and lifting the eyebrow and lax submental and neck tissue.
02
When will I see results?
Some people notice early changes, while collagen-related improvement typically develops over approximately 12 weeks. Timing and results vary.
03
How long do results last?
Result duration varies by individual and treatment area. Further treatment is considered after review based on your response, skin condition and clinician recommendation.
04
How is Sofwave better than HIFU (High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound)?
Both treatments use ultrasound, but they deliver energy using different patterns and at different depths. Sofwave uses Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam technology to target the mid-dermis at approximately 1.5 mm, with integrated cooling to protect the skin surface. Suitability depends on your skin, treatment area and goals.
05
What Can I Expect During a Sofwave Treatment?
Your clinician will review your goals, medical history and suitability before treatment. The skin is cleansed and topical anaesthetic may be applied; the treatment then delivers short pulses of ultrasound energy. Sensation varies. Aftercare and follow-up are explained at the appointment, with progress commonly reviewed around 12 weeks.
06
Do I need to do anything to prepare?
Follow the preparation guidance provided after your consultation. Please tell the clinic about any medicines, allergies and medical conditions before treatment, and complete the consent form before your appointment.
07
Why is Sofwave so expensive?
Pricing reflects the Sofwave device, clinician time, treatment area and planned follow-up. Many treatment plans involve one or two sessions, depending on skin condition and clinician recommendation. Results and duration vary.
08
Is Sofwave safe?
Sofwave is FDA-cleared for specific indications, but treatment is not risk-free. Possible effects of ultrasound treatment include pain, tenderness, redness, swelling, pigment changes, bruising and, rarely, skin injury. A consultation is required to review contraindications and suitability.
09
How long does the treatment take?
Appointment length depends on the area treated. If topical anaesthetic is used, allow time for it to take effect; treatment itself commonly takes around 30 to 60 minutes. The clinic will confirm the expected appointment length when you book.
