Sofwave™
Welcome to EC Aesthetic Clinic, we offer the latest and most effective anti-ageing treatments.
Our newest addition to our portfolio of treatments is Sofwave™, the revolutionary non-surgical facelift solution that delivers impressive results without any downtime.
What is Sofwave™?
Sofwave™ is a non-invasive and non-surgical treatment that uses ultrasound energy to rejuvenate the skin, tighten and lift the facial and neck areas, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The treatment stimulates the production of collagen, which improves the skin’s elasticity and texture.
Sofwave™ has received FDA clearance and has been clinically validated for its ability to restructure collagen, enhance facial lines, diminish wrinkles, and elevate the eyebrow, submental area, and neck. All of these favourable results are achieved within a single 30-45-minute session depending on the treatment areas, ensuring optimal outcomes with minimal recovery time.
Sofwave Medical, headquartered in California, United States, is an Israeli company specializing in aesthetic medicine. The company was founded in 2015 by Dr. Shimon Eckhouse, who serves as the founder and chairman, along with Ariel Sverdlik, the Chief Technology Officer. The establishment of Sofwave took place within the Alon Medtech Ventures incubator, located in Yokneam, Israel, under the auspices of the Israel Innovation Authority. The company focuses on developing an innovative ultrasound system designed for non-invasive dermatological aesthetic treatments, targeting the enhancement of facial lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin.
It is an effective treatment for a range of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, sagging skin, and loss of elasticity. It can also improve the texture and tone of the skin, reduce the appearance of pores, and enhance the overall appearance of the skin.
Sofwave™ employs ultrasound beams to create fractional heating within the tissue, accurately at a 1.5mm depth in the mid-dermal layer. Known as Sofwave Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology (SUPERB), this advanced approach is validated through rigorous Finite Element Numerical Analysis and real-time 3D simulations. This treatment consistently targets the 1.5mm mid-dermal centre, regardless of energy levels, ensuring preservation of structures like bones, facial nerves, facial fat, and blood vessels.
Uniform tissue effect is achieved by delivering ultrasound beams in parallel with a broad contact area, minimising sensitivity to tissue variations for consistent, controlled energy delivery.
Powered by a solid-state energiser module with seven robust ultrasound transducers, the technology operates without moving parts or optics. Supported by a direct contact ultrasound mechanism, it provides integrated cooling and real-time skin temperature monitoring, safeguarding the epidermis while achieving precise thermal effects.
Sofwave™ is versatile for all skin types due to ultrasound absorption determined by microscopic and mechanical properties, regardless of skin colour. Each pulse covers extensively, delivering a distinctive fractional impact on the mid-dermis.
Operating on a Smart Mode of Action called Volumetric Directional Thermal Impact (VDTI), Sofwave™ deploys high-frequency ultrasound beams, creating a 3D thermal zone array within the dermis. These cylindrical zones, interspersed with undamaged tissue, generate a fractional effect in the mid-dermis.
This controlled fractional ultrasound effect maintains 60-70°C temperatures, operating parallel to the skin’s surface at a 1.5mm depth. Stimulating an inflammatory wound-healing response involving neo-collagenases and neo-elastinogenesis, it effectively diminishes fine lines and wrinkles and tighten the loose skin.
If you are looking to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, tighten and lift sagging skin, and achieve a more youthful appearance, then Sofwave is the perfect treatment for you. It is suitable for all skin types and can be used on the face, neck, and chest areas.
Sofwave™ has numerous advantages over other anti-aging treatments. It is a non-invasive and non-surgical procedure that does not require any downtime. The treatment is quick, painless, and can be completed in as little as 30 minutes. The results are visible after the first treatment, and continue to improve over time.
Sofwave™ is a more advanced and effective treatment than Ultherapy. It uses the latest ultrasound technology that is seven times more powerful than traditional ultrasound, delivering better results in less time. Additionally, Sofwave™ is safer and more comfortable than Ultherapy, as it does not cause any discomfort or pain during the procedure.
After your Sofwave™ treatment, you can return to your daily routine immediately. However, it is recommended that you avoid direct sunlight and use a high SPF sunscreen to protect your skin. You may experience slight redness or swelling, but this should subside within a few hours.
Frequently Asked Questions
Most patients see significant results after just one Sofwave™ treatment, but it is recommended to have one treatment every 12-18 months to maintain the results.
Yes, Sofwave™ is a safe and FDA-cleared treatment that has been proven to be effective in clinical trials.
No, Sofwave is a painless and comfortable procedure that does not require any anesthesia or sedation.
The results of Sofwave™ can last up to 18 months, depending on the individual’s skin type and lifestyle factors. Regular maintenance treatments can help to prolong the results.
You can do Thermage two days after or before Sofwave™.
You can have injectable treatments done AFTER the Sofwave™ treatment on the same day,or two weeks before your Sofwave™ treatment.
You can have any laser treatments before or after the Sofwave™ tretament. However, it is advised to leave minimum 2 weeks between your laser treatments and the Sofwave™.
