SOFWAVE IN SEOUL
WOOA Dermatology in Gangnam offers Sofwave, an FDA- and CE-approved ultrasound lifting device that works precisely in the dermis.
Quick answer: Sofwave uses SUPERB™ ultrasound technology to send energy to the mid-dermis, about 1.5mm below the surface, without affecting the outer skin. The tiny heated zones it creates prompt new collagen and elastin, helping to firm sagging skin, soften fine lines and restore elasticity with no downtime.
HOW SOFWAVE WORKS
With any lifting treatment, results depend on which skin layer receives the energy and how it is spread. Sofwave distributes heat evenly through the dermis, exactly where collagen needs to be rebuilt, while avoiding surface damage and excess heat build-up. That makes it a good option even for thin or sensitive skin.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Who is Sofwave suitable for?
It is ideal for people with reduced elasticity, fine lines or a softening facial contour.
How does it differ from Ultherapy or Shurink?
Sofwave works in the dermis rather than the deeper layers, so it improves fine lines and firmness at the same time.
When will results appear?
A light tightening is often felt immediately, and collagen-driven improvement develops over 4 to 12 weeks.
How many sessions do I need?
Most people see results after a single session; more can be added if needed.
Can I wear make-up afterwards?
Yes. You can wash your face and apply make-up straight away, and most people return to normal activities immediately.
