My Face is Falling! Treat the Mid Face and Jowls with Sofwave Ultrasound Lifting

As we get older and we start to show signs of aging, the skin around our mid-face and jowls can start to sag. This can lead to a tired and less youthful looking face. Fortunately for you, Med 44 Arcadia offers the Sofwave Ultrasound Lifting! This treatment offers a non-invasive solution to combat this issue, effectively lifting and tightening these areas.

What is Unique About Sofwave Technology?

Originating from Israel, Sofwave technology employs advanced ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production deep within the skin. Unlike many traditional lifting methods, Sofwave uses a Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam Technology (SUPBT) that allows it to deliver energy at a depth of 1.5mm. This depth is ideal for promoting collagen production while keeping discomfort to a minimum. 

What Area of the Skin Is It Treating?

Sofwave specifically targets the mid-face and jowl areas. As we age, these parts of the skin are often the first to show signs of sagging, resulting in the loss of volume and unfortunately, the formation of wrinkles. Sofwave’s innovative ultrasound technology effectively lifts and tightens the skin, addressing these concerns by stimulating collagen production in the dermal layers. It improves skin quality by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, and lifts the eyebrows, neck, and submental (under the chin) area. Sofwave can also be used on the body for cellulite, as well as skin tightening of the abdomen, knees, thighs and buttock.

No Downtime

One of the most desirable aspects of Sofwave is that it requires minimum downtime. Patients appreciate the convenience of being able to return to their daily routines immediately after a treatment, and Sofwave is one of those treatments that you can do just that. Some individuals may experience some mild redness or swelling, but it normally resolves quickly, making Sofwave an ideal option for those with busy lifestyles.

What Treatments Improve Sofwave Results?

To maximize the benefits of Sofwave, it is highly recommended to combine it with other aesthetic treatments.

  • Microneedling: This treatment creates micro-injuries in the skin to stimulate collagen and enhance skin texture. When paired with Sofwave, microneedling improves overall skin quality, leaving a smoother and more refreshed complexion.
  • Dermal Fillers: If you're looking to restore volume in areas that may have begun to sag, dermal fillers can add a youthful plumpness, enhancing the results of your Sofwave treatment.
  • Chemical Peels: Using chemical peels to help the skin flake and peel improves skin texture and tone revealing smoother, more glowy skin. This makes them a great addition before or after a Sofwave treatment. 

Skincare Products to Improve Your Sofwave Results

To prolong the effects of your Sofwave treatment, incorporating the right skincare products into your daily routine is essential. Consider using the following:

  • ZO Hydrating Cream: Lightweight moisturizer that soothes and calms the skin post treatment. Helps support the skin barrier.
  • ZO Growth Factor Serum: Plant based growth factors and peptides work together to plump, hydrate, and smooth fine lines. Growth factor serum helps heal the skin’s barrier function and leaves the skin looking more youthful. 
  • ZO AOX Serum: Antioxidant serum that contains Vitamin C to help fight free radical damage from our environment and brighten the skin.
  • ZO Smart Tone Sunscreen: Mineral SPF that fights against UVB, UVA, and blue light damage.

How Often Should I Schedule and Repeat This Treatment?

The frequency of the treatment depends on the individual's skin concerns and needs. The initial treatment can be anywhere from 1-3 sessions, spaced about 6 weeks apart. Then to maximize results, we typically recommend scheduling Sofwave treatments every 6 to 12 months to keep up with results and to keep  promoting collagen production.
