Lifting & Anti-Aging
Sofwave
Parallel-beam ultrasound aimed at the mid-dermis, with built-in cooling for comfort — a lift for fine laxity and texture.
- SessionAbout 30–45 min
- DowntimeUsually mild redness only
- ChangeDevelops over 1–3 months

Overview
Sofwave uses synchronous parallel ultrasound beams aimed at the middle layer of the dermis, where collagen is made. An integrated cooling system protects the surface during treatment.
It is often chosen for fine laxity, lines and texture, and by patients who want a shorter, more comfortable session than deep focused ultrasound.

FAQ
Sofwave — questions
How is Sofwave different from Ultherapy Prime?
Sofwave works at a single, shallower depth in the dermis with surface cooling, while Ultherapy Prime reaches the deeper SMAS layer. Your skin thickness and goal decide which fits.
How many pulses for a full face?
It depends on face size and the areas included. The doctor suggests a pulse count after the consultation.
Is there downtime?
Most patients have mild redness that settles the same day.
