Flora Aesthetics & Wellness is delighted to offer Sofwave in Ventura, a revolutionary non-invasive skincare treatment that uses ultrasound technology to revitalize your skin.
Discover how Sofwave can help you achieve youthful, rejuvenated skin without the need for surgery or downtime.
What is Sofwave?
Sofwave is an advanced skincare technology that utilizes state-of-the-art ultrasound technology to address common signs of aging, such as saggy skin, heavy brows, wrinkles and fine lines. Many beauty-seekers utilize Sofwave alongside (or as an alternative to) options like injectables.
This innovative treatment works by stimulating collagen production and tightening the skin, ultimately resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
What Can Sofwave Treat?
Sofwave is highly effective at treating a range of cosmetic concerns, including:
- Wrinkles and Fine Lines: Sofwave can smooth out and reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines on the face and neck.
- Skin Laxity: It tightens loose or sagging skin, restoring a firmer, more youthful contour. We love using Sofwave to tighten up necks and jawlines!
- Texture Irregularities: Sofwave can improve the texture and overall quality of your skin, leaving it smoother and more radiant.
- Cellulite: There are very few treatments on the market for Cellulite at this time. Sofwave is effective for cellulite treatment, although perhaps not our favorite way to use the device!
While still off label (not yet approved by the FDA), Sofwave is undergoing clinical trials for Lifting/Tightening of the upper lip, Acne Scars, and Skin Laxity on the body (upper arms, knees, etc)… rumors sound very promising and we are starting to play with the device for these uses!
Who is Sofwave Treatment Best Suited For?
Sofwave’s versatility makes it an excellent choice for individuals seeking skin rejuvenation without resorting to surgery or enduring extended downtime. Whether you have fair or dark skin, Sofwave is suitable for a wide spectrum of skin types and tones. If your goal is to address the visible signs of aging and enhance your skin’s overall appearance, Sofwave could be the perfect solution for you.
We find that Sofwave is appropriate for most age groups. It is an excellent preventative measure for patients in their 30s and 40s, helps to treat signs of aging in patients in their 50s, and is one of the few nonsurgical options for patients in their 60s+. For patients who are more mature and/or have more signs of aging, we will typically recommend a combination treatment for best results.
How Does Sofwave Work?
Sofwave employs advanced ultrasound technology to deliver precise energy deep into the layers of your skin. This process triggers the production of collagen, a vital component responsible for skin elasticity and firmness. Sofwave has some degree of discomfort but the vast majority of our patients do great with topical numbing cream, and cooling provided by our Zimmer Chiller. Some patients prefer to utilize Nitrous Therapy (‘laughing gas’) for additional anxiety and pain control.
Does Sofwave Hurt?
Most patients find Sofwave treatment to be well-tolerated. You may experience a hot/poking sensation as the ultrasound energy is delivered that escalates over a few seconds and then is completely gone by the end of 5 seconds. A cooling mechanism is built into the device to ensure your comfort during the procedure. We provide topical numbing, chilling and optional inhaled nitrous/oxygen to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible.
Sofwave vs. Ultherapy
Both Sofwave and Ultherapy are ultrasound treatments that help naturally promote collagen and elastin. This similarity leads to frequent questions whether they are the same — or which one is better.
While both Sofwave and Ultherapy utilize ultrasound technology for skin rejuvenation, they do have some distinctions.
Sofwave is particularly well-regarded for its comfortable and efficient treatment sessions, which typically require less time than Ultherapy. Furthermore, Sofwave’s advanced technology enables precise targeting of the treatment area, thereby minimizing discomfort.
What Kind of Results Can You Expect from Sofwave?
Following a Sofwave procedure, patients can anticipate a gradual improvement in the treated area over the course of 3-6 months.
For the majority of treatments, the affected skin will appear smoother, firmer, and more youthful. You can expect fewer lines and wrinkles in the treated area. This includes lifted eyebrows and sagging around the neck, limbs, or jawline. Patients who are more mature or have more significant signs of aging often will require a ‘booster’ treatment or combination treatment with other modalities for optimal results.
Is There Really No Downtime?
Yes, one of the remarkable advantages of Sofwave is that it involves minimal to no downtime. After the treatment, you can resume your daily activities immediately. There may be some mild redness or swelling, but these typically subside within a few hours to a day.
