At McLean Dermatology, we’re excited to introduce our newest non-invasive treatment—Skin Tight using Sofwave™ technology. This cutting-edge ultrasound treatment is designed to provide noticeable results without surgery or downtime. Skin Tight is the perfect solution for you if you’re looking to reduce fine lines and wrinkles, lift sagging skin, or improve the appearance of cellulite and skin laxity.
Sofwave™is an FDA cleared, non-invasive treatment of fine lines and wrinkles using a next generation SUPERB™ Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology. In December 2022 Sofwave™ was approved by FDA for the short-term improvement of cellulite, making it another viable option for cellulite.
The fractional heating effect created by Sofwave’s unique ultrasound delivery stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, which reduces fine lines and wrinkles.
How Sofwave™ Works
Sofwave™ uses ultrasound energy to penetrate the skin’s deeper layers. The targeted energy stimulates the production of collagen and elastin. These are essential proteins that help maintain skin structure and firmness. The treatment is comfortable, non-invasive, and requires no recovery time. It’s the perfect option for busy individuals looking for effective, natural-looking results.
What to Expect
The procedure is quick, comfortable, and requires no downtime. During the treatment, a handheld device will be applied to your skin, delivering precise ultrasound energy to the targeted areas. Most patients experience a warm, tingling sensation as the energy is delivered to the deeper layers of the skin. Treatment typically lasts between 30-45 minutes depending on the areas being treated.
Patients may feel a warm sensation on their skin, which can be resolved by applying a topical anesthetic cream just before the treatment. Following treatment, there is no need to apply special care to the skin. Patients may resume their daily activities quickly post-treatment.
Typically, the treatment protocol calls for 1-2 treatments, depending on the patient’s skin condition.
When Can I Expect To See Results?
The collagen regeneration process can sometimes take up to 12 weeks, so patients are expected to see ongoing improvements in the 3-month period after their treatment. In Sofwave™’s clinical trials, results have been shown in as little as, post one treatment.
Benefits of Sofwave™
