Sofwave.

"Sofwave has really changed their technology and they're constantly studying collagen so it produces collagen one and three. This is the handle we use, we use a pedal and it's really targeted exactly where you need it, on the neck to really lift it up. Patients come every year for it. It takes 3 months to see results, so in three months you're going to start noticing that skin tightening and you're going to be like can I come back again tomorrow. You don't necessarily need that collagen buildup more than once or twice a year. That's why I love it, it really gives you a big bang for your buck. As for pain, it depends on the person. It's like if you put your hand on a stove for a second you realize you're like oh that's hot, that's it, that's what you'll feel and then we move on and it cools."

"Softwave is basically lifting the skin and the way it delivers energy is through ultrasound. What's unique about it is that it only goes 1.5 mm up where the dermis is, where collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid is. So you would be lifted, you will look dewy like a baby, you'll be moist, and you know you won't have that crepy paper skin. This can be done on every part of the body, any part of the body which is skin. It can be done on winter, spring, summer, fall. Type one to type six skin, any tone of skin. It bypasses the epidermal layer, it doesn't irritate the melanin. The epidermis is that top layer of skin, it bypasses that, which means there's no ablation, no needles. You're not going to have the downtime. You might be a little bit pink, but I would say minimal downtime, but most of my patients have no downtime at all."

"Sofwave is FDA approved for brow lift, face lifting, and neck lifting. The reason why it's so safe is that it only targets down to 1.5 mm so you're really safe on that fat layer. It stimulates collagen in the skin layer so you'll see this natural plumping effect which is similar to what you can get with very subtle fillers, and you also get a nice tightening effect too. It uses ultrasound, a very specific type of ultrasound that uses something called parallel beam technology, basically meaning that the energy is released parallel almost like in a circle, so normally traditional devices go perpendicular and the energy can get spread from 1 mm to 2 mm and it loses its effect."
