What Is Sofwave®?
Sofwave® uses advanced Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology (SUPERB™) to heat the mid-dermal layers of the skin, stimulating new collagen and elastin production. Unlike invasive procedures, Sofwave® works without damaging the surface of the skin, making it safe for all skin types.
Sofwave® is FDA-cleared for:
-
- Eyebrow lift
- Submental tightening (under the chin)
- Neck tightening
- Reduction of fine lines and wrinkles
Think of it as a collagen “wake-up call” — reviving your skin’s natural ability to stay firm, lifted, and smooth.
What Sofwave® Treats
Sofwave® is ideal for patients noticing early to moderate signs of aging, such as:
-
- Mild to moderate skin laxity
- Fine lines and wrinkles on the face and neck
- Sagging brows or eyelids
- Loose skin under the chin (“tech neck”)
- General loss of firmness in the lower face and jawline
It’s especially popular for patients who want non-invasive skin tightening with no needles, no surgery, and little recovery time.
The Science Behind Sofwave®
Sofwave® uses ultrasound energy to create controlled heating in the mid-dermis at a depth of 1.5mm — exactly where collagen stimulation is most effective.
This process:
-
- Stimulates collagen remodeling – new collagen and elastin form over the following months.
- Lifts and tightens skin – without cutting, injecting, or resurfacing the surface layer.
- Safe and consistent results – ultrasound waves penetrate precisely without harming surrounding tissues.
It’s one of the most advanced non-surgical options for natural facial rejuvenation.
What to Expect During Treatment
At our San Diego med spa near Balboa Park, Sofwave® treatments are quick, comfortable, and require minimal downtime:
-
- Consultation – We evaluate your skin and design a treatment plan.
- Preparation – A topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort.
- Treatment – Ultrasound energy is delivered across the treatment area using a handheld applicator. Patients describe it as a warming or tingling sensation.
- Post-Care – No downtime is required. You can return to work, errands in Hillcrest, or dinner Downtown right after.
Most sessions last 30–60 minutes.

Results and Longevity
- Immediately after treatment – some patients notice subtle tightening.
- 2–12 weeks after treatment – collagen remodeling becomes visible, with skin appearing firmer and smoother.
- Longevity – results typically last 12–18 months, with maintenance recommended annually.
A single Sofwave® treatment is often enough, though some patients choose multiple sessions for enhanced results.
Real Patient Stories

Combining Sofwave® with Other Treatments
Sofwave® can be combined with other procedures for comprehensive rejuvenation:

- Dermal fillers – restore lost volume alongside collagen stimulation
- PDO Threads – provide lift while Sofwave® improves firmness
- PRP or Exosomes – boost skin healing and regenerative effects
