Sofwave Face and Body Contouring

New York Laser & Skin Care

Sofwave is an award-winning non-invasive treatment that lifts the brow, submental & neck lift, reduces fine lines and wrinkles and improves cellulite. Sofwave is a non-invasive, no-downtime procedure that uses SUPERB™ ultrasound technology to heat deep in the skin and stimulate the growth of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.  This process leads to wrinkle improvement and skin lifting (tightening). No recovery procedure – no needles, no surgery, no bruising, no healing

Dr. Kauvar was the first physician in the world to use the Sofwave technology. Dr. Kauvar and the research team at New York Laser & Skin Care performed the pivotal trials for FDA clearance of face, neck and brow skin lifting, wrinkle and fine line reduction and acne scar reduction.

How Contouring Works

Using advanced non-invasive or minimally invasive technologies, treatments work to reduce fat, tighten skin, and enhance natural contours. Each plan is tailored to the patient’s anatomy and desired outcome, ensuring subtle and harmonious results.

What to Expect

Treatments are comfortable and require little to no downtime. Results develop gradually as the body responds to the treatment, with improvements in contour and definition becoming more visible over time. The outcome is refined, natural-looking enhancement.
