More precise than Thermage,
More comfortable than Ulthera
Hello.
I’m Beauty’s Doctor, Woo Youngjin.
These days, more and more people are
searching for Sofwave.
Whether it really hurts,
whether it causes hollow cheeks,
and how it differs from Thermage.
I thought you might have a lot of questions,
so I整理 them one by one myself.
✅ 1. Is Sofwave really not painful?

It varies from person to person,
but it is a treatment that can be received relatively comfortably.
There are three reasons.
If enough anesthetic cream is applied,
the pain is definitely reduced,
its built-in cooling system, “SofCool,”
directly cools the skin surface.
On top of that, an air cooler is also used
to minimize pain.
For those who are sensitive to pain,
sedation anesthesia is also possible, so don’t worry.
✅ 2. Can I apply makeup right after the procedure?

Yes, you can right away.
Immediately after the procedure, there may be a slight rash-like appearance,
especially around the eye area.
However, in most cases,
there is no visible sign at all.
Because it is a non-invasive procedure,
washing your face and applying makeup are possible immediately,
and it rarely interferes with daily life.
✅ 3. Can it be done together with Ulthera?

It is actually recommended.
If Ulthera lifts the deeper layers (3.0/4.5 mm),
Sofwave (1.5 mm)
fills in surface-level skin elasticity.
This combination is called “Ulsopew,”
and the synergy between the two treatments
is excellent.
You can address both deep lifting and surface elasticity
at the same time.
✅ 4. Is there a risk of hollow cheeks?

There is no need to worry.
Sofwave delivers energy
only to the middle dermis layer (1.5 mm).
Because it does not reach the fat layer,
you can let go of concerns about hollow cheeks or facial volume loss.
It is a treatment for improving elasticity,
not one that affects fat.
✅ 5. Is it effective for neck wrinkles too?

Yes, Sofwave is
a device that has also received official approval
for improving neck wrinkles.
It works safely even on thin neck skin
and helps create a smoother neck line.
If you also want to improve vertical neck lines,
a combination with Radiesse treatment is recommended.
✅ 6. When do results start to appear?

From immediately after the procedure,
you begin to feel tightening,
and from about 4 weeks later, when collagen regeneration starts,
the skin begins to improve in earnest.
Between 1 and 2 months,
you can feel that the skin has become very firm.
✅ 7. How long does the procedure take?
For a full-face 200-shot treatment,
it takes about 30 to 45 minutes.
Including the time needed to apply anesthetic cream,
please allow about 30 minutes of extra time when visiting.
✅ 8. Can I receive it if my skin is thin?
It is actually a treatment
that is more recommended for people with thin skin.
That’s because it is a treatment that increases dermal density
and strengthens the skin’s resilience.
The thinner and more weakened the skin,
the more you may feel Sofwave’s effects.
✅ 9. How many shots do you recommend?
For the full face,
200 to 300 shots are usually recommended.
It may vary depending on the individual’s skin condition
and wrinkle depth.
If you want to cover a wider area
or want a more dramatic improvement,
more shots are needed.
During the consultation, we first check the skin condition
and design a customized plan.
✅ 10. Does it work well for men too?

Of course.
It is one of the treatments that many men recently seek out
when they want to look younger naturally
without looking artificial.
In particular, the effects are more noticeable
in men with thin skin.
✅ 11. Is there significant swelling after the procedure?
This is a treatment that causes almost no swelling.
There are no needle marks at all,
so there are absolutely no issues
with makeup or daily life.
✅ 12. How does it compare to Thermage?

If Thermage is strong in tightening that makes the entire skin
feel firm and taut,
Sofwave is stronger in improving fine wrinkles
and skin texture.
It is especially excellent for improving elasticity in delicate areas,
such as the forehead, around the eyes, and the midface.
✅ 13. What is the treatment interval?
Satisfaction is fairly high even with just one treatment.
For maintenance and prevention,
I recommend getting it once every 6 months to 1 year.
✅ 14. Can I check for a genuine tip?
Yes, it can be checked.
Because Sofwave is an expensive device,
authenticity verification is important.
We have the genuine certification plaque,
and we also check the number of shots performed after the treatment.
✅ 15. When can I drink alcohol or smoke after the procedure?

Because it can interfere with collagen regeneration
and delay recovery,
we recommend avoiding them for at least one week.
Other than that, there are no special restrictions,
so you can continue your daily life as usual.
Sofwave is
a treatment that can improve skin elasticity
without worrying about hollow cheeks.
If you need deep lifting, it can be combined with Ulthera,
and if your goal is refined texture improvement,
Sofwave alone is enough.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask anytime
