Love Your Contoured Look with Sofwave

Our bodies all respond in different ways to the aging process, and you’re certainly not alone if you have found yourself experiencing the onset of fine lines, facial wrinkles, or a frustratingly “full” look under your chin and along your jawline. Technically referred to as submental fullness, this condition can impact patients at any age. In some cases, submental fullness will increase along with the aging process, while in others, it may simply be a condition of the body with which you were born.

Whatever your circumstances may be, Dr. Young Cho and the talented team here at Integrated Aesthetics are here to help, offering you the impressively advanced Sofwave system. This procedure is just one of several non-surgical treatments we’re excited to offer, and can be included as part of a comprehensive approach to your ideal results.

How Does Sofwave Work?

Sofwave’s primary mechanisms of action involve tissue tightening and collagen production. Collagen is naturally produced by your body, but we make less and less of it as we age. It works hard to keep our tissues looking firm, youthful, and supple. Sofwave utilizes ultrasound technology to heat up your tissues at precise levels. Not only does this serve to physically tighten and firm up the tissues in the treatment area for a more voluminous look, but it also works to encourage your body to naturally produce more and more of that helpful collagen. The result is a lasting sense of rejuvenation that essentially takes place from the inside out.

Most patients are able to see exciting results after just a single Sofwave treatment. Some patients do require an additional treatment to enjoy the outcome they envision, and if this applies to you, we’ll work with you to schedule a follow-up appointment. The entire procedure takes between 30 and 45 minutes to complete, and you’ll be able to return to your normal activities right away. Sofwave’s advanced technology includes a cooling mechanism that keeps you comfortable and enables you to avoid any kind of post-procedural downtime, making this an ideal treatment for active patients who are interested in notable results.

How is Sofwave different from other aesthetics procedures?

Sofwave is one of the few aesthetic procedures where you will experience minimal discomfort and no downtime. Sofwave uses a proprietary cooling mechanism to keep you comfortable and make the treatment effective and safe.

What does the Sofwave procedure feel like?

Best practices include applying a topical anesthetic cream 45 minutes prior to treatment. As the ultrasound energy is applied, clients may feel warmth on the skin. Post-treatment, you should not expect any additional sensations and no special skincare is needed unless it is part of an additional regimen customized for you. Patients can resume their daily routine immediately after treatment.
