No, Sofwave doesn’t cause bruising, ulceration, or skin pigmentation after a treatment. Though we do recommend following a good skin-care routine after treatment to maximize results, you won’t need to follow a specific post-treatment protocol.
Riding the Wave of Innovation
Sofwave is a non-invasive, energy-based solution for facial wrinkles, skin laxity, and acne scars. Proven safe and effective, it doesn’t require any downtime.
Sofwave in Kansas City works to boost your body’s natural collagen and elastin production. This increase in proteins helps to tighten the skin on the face, neck, and chin. Sofwave uses advanced, high-frequency ultrasound waves to reach the deeper layers of the skin without damaging the surface.
You can effectively address sagging skin, fine lines and pesky wrinkles to enjoy a smoother, more youthful appearance after treatment. Sofwave has the “stamp of approval” from the Kardashians, calling it “the best machine out there for lifting and collagen production.
