4. How is Sofwave™ performed?
The Sofwave™ procedure is typically performed in a clinical setting by a trained healthcare professional. Here is an overview of how Sofwave™ is generally administered:
Step One – Consultation: The process begins with a consultation between the patient and the healthcare provider. The provider assesses the patient’s skin condition, discusses treatment goals, and ensures the patient is a suitable candidate for Sofwave™.
Step Two – Preparation: Before the treatment, the targeted area is cleansed, and a topical anesthetic may be applied to enhance comfort during the procedure. A cooling gel is applied to the skin to facilitate the smooth movement of the Sofwave™ handpiece and enhance patient comfort.
Step Three – Sofwave Treatment: The handheld Sofwave™ device is then applied to the targeted areas. The device delivers controlled, focused ultrasound energy to the deep layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin tightening. Sofwave™ utilizes a sequential fractional ultrasound technology, ensuring that the treatment is delivered in a precise and controlled manner.
Step Four – Follow-up: Depending on the individual treatment plan, patients may require multiple sessions spaced over a few weeks to achieve optimal results. Follow-up appointments may be scheduled to assess progress.
It’s important to note that the specifics of the procedure may vary based on the patient’s unique needs and the healthcare provider’s approach.
