Celebrity-backed Skin Tightening Solution, Sofwave, Creating a Buzz Amongst Everybody

Sofwave, a non-invasive skin tightening and face lifting treatment, has been making waves in the aesthetic industry. The treatment, which uses high-frequency, low-divergence ultrasound and heat to boost collagen production and soften fine lines and wrinkles, has received positive feedback from leading aesthetic doctors and has been FDA-cleared to lift the eyebrow and tighten lax neck tissue.

Dr Galyna Selezneva, a renowned aesthetics practitioner based in Knightsbridge, London, offers a painless version of Sofwave. The treatment, priced at approximately £650 per session, takes 40 minutes for the lower face and 120 minutes for a full face. Dr Selezneva achieves this painless experience by having a deep understanding of the device and doing the treatment herself.

Alice Hart-Davis, a leading aesthetics journalist, has reviewed Sofwave and found it effective at lifting the skin and stimulating collagen production. However, she found the treatment uncomfortable, needing painkilling tablets for relief, with the forehead being the area that typically hurts most during Sofwave treatment.

Despite the discomfort, Sofwave is best suited for individuals with mild-to-moderate skin laxity, such as sagging under the chin and jawline, hooded eyelids, or wrinkles forming on the chest. It delivers more energy across a wider area than other ultrasound treatments, which can result in better results.

The benefits of Sofwave include skin tightening and lifting of the face, neck, and arms, wrinkle reduction, and a one-off treatment with results lasting up to two years. Visible results from Sofwave can be seen as early as three months after treatment.

Dr Sophie Shotter, another aesthetics practitioner, offers Sofwave treatments at the Illuminate Skin Clinic in Kent. The cost of Sofwave at the clinic starts from £1800 for the lower face and £3200 for a full face treatment. The treatment time is 40 minutes for the lower face and 60 minutes for a full face.

Celebrity fans of Sofwave include Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian, as well as controversial biohacker Bryan Johnson. The treatment can also be used to treat wrinkly tummies, droopy knees, and crepey inner arms, but treatment costs around £3k and can get expensive as more areas are treated.

In conclusion, while Sofwave may be uncomfortable for some, its benefits in skin tightening and lifting, wrinkle reduction, and collagen stimulation make it a popular choice for those seeking a non-invasive alternative to surgery. As with any treatment, it is important to consult with a qualified aesthetics practitioner to determine if Sofwave is the right choice for you.
