If you’ve started to notice fine lines, wrinkles, or sagging skin, but aren’t ready for cosmetic surgery, there’s an innovative solution that could be just what you’re looking for. At Maloney Plastic Surgery in Tucson, we’re excited to offer Sofwave™, the next-generation, non-invasive treatment that lifts, tightens, and rejuvenates your skin, without the need for surgery or downtime.
What is Sofwave™?
Sofwave™ is a clinically proven, FDA-cleared skin treatment that uses advanced ultrasound technology to treat mild to moderate signs of aging. This innovative approach stimulates the natural production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, the building blocks of youthful, firm skin.
It’s a safe and effective alternative to traditional cosmetic procedures like facelifts and neck lifts, making it an ideal option for patients looking to enhance their appearance without undergoing surgery.
How Does Sofwave™ Work?
Sofwave™uses Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam (SUPERB™) technology, targeting the mid-dermis at a precise depth, right where collagen production occurs. The device delivers fractional ultrasound energy to this layer, creating a controlled heating effect that triggers your body’s natural healing response, known as neo-collagenesis.
To ensure safety and comfort, the technology also includes Sofcool™, an integrated cooling mechanism that protects the skin’s surface during treatment. The result? Firmer, tighter, smoother skin without damage to surrounding tissues.
What Can Sofwave™ Treat?
Sofwave™ is effective for a variety of common aesthetic concerns on the face, neck, and body. Common treatment areas include:
- Forehead and brows
- Cheeks and jawline
- Neck and submental area (under the chin)
- Eyelids and crow’s feet
- Jowls and marionette lines
- Cellulite and crêpey skin
- Laxity in the upper arms
- Acne scars
Why Choose Sofwave™?
There are many non-surgical treatments available, but Sofwave™ stands out with its combination of efficacy, safety, and convenience:
- No incisions, needles, or downtime
- Fast treatments (typically 30–45 minutes)
- Safe for all skin types
- High patient satisfaction
- No special aftercare required
- Results in as little as 1 week, with peak results around 12 weeks
- Long-lasting effects, up to a year or more after one session
Unlike other energy-based treatments that may involve discomfort or extended recovery, Sofwave™ offers natural-looking results with minimal to no side effects.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
Your journey starts with a consultation at Maloney Plastic Surgery, where we’ll evaluate your skin and customize a treatment plan that fits your goals. During the procedure:
- A topical anesthetic is applied to enhance comfort.
- A cooling ultrasound gel is used to prep the skin.
- The handheld Sofwave™ device delivers targeted energy to specific areas.
The procedure is generally well-tolerated and complete within 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Post-treatment, you may notice slight redness or swelling that typically resolves within a few hours. You can return to work or your regular routine immediately.
