A Perfect Combo . . . Pairing Sofwave and appearance medicine treatments

July 7, 2025

When it comes to facial rejuvenation treatments you have options. And, demand for nonsurgical procedures continues to soar; according to the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery report, over 14 million injectable procedures were performed globally in 2023 –up 35% since 2019. However, choosing a noninvasive cosmetic treatment best suited to you is not a hit and miss situation. It begins with an experienced and qualified cosmetic hand.

So, what benefits do key noninvasive facial procedures afford?

Injectable treatments – such as Botox and dermal fillers – are designed to address some of the issues associated with aging like appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and loss of volume.

Alpha-hydroxy acid facial peels engage trichloroacetic acid to remove dead skin cells and stimulate new cell growth, combat accumulated sun exposure, improve skin tone and texture, and aid acne scarring and melasma.

A relative newcomer to the appearance medicine scene is Sofwave which noninvasively stimulates the production of collagen and elastin via SUPERB™ Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam technology. It is suited to all ages and skin types, especially those experiencing mild-to-moderate laxity of the skin. Sofwave gently lifts and tightens the face and neck, permanently restoring precious collagen and elastin fibres, with no downtime needed.

If you’ve undergone appearance medicine treatments like Botox or dermal fillers in the past – or currently – and are wanting to try Sofwave, the good news is there’s a place for both.

Botox works to relax the muscles in the face that cause dynamic wrinkles. When paired with Sofwave, the neurotoxin enhances the smoothing effects of the ultrasound treatment. Simultaneously, Sofwave boosts collagen improve the appearance of any existing wrinkles and lines.

As a general rule of thumb, if you’ve just undergone Botox injections in your facial areas, it’s advisable to wait until the Botox has taken full effect before undergoing a Sofwave treatment. If you are planning on Botox injections, do not undergo these at the same time as Sofwave, as the heat from the ultrasound technology may inactivate the Botox.

Dermal fillers and Sofwave go hand in hand. Hyaluronic dermal fillers plump and balance the areas of the face where volume has been lost due to aging – the nasolabial folds, cheeks, under the eyes. Sofwave joins in to lift and improve firmness and support the underlying skin structure.  

Sofwave can also enhance overall results from a chemical peel, gifting a more comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation – brighter complexion, improved skin texture, reduced skin pigmentation.

Whatever your facial rejuvenation goals, reaching out to trusted cosmetic appearance medicine specialists ensures a comprehensive facial rejuvenation plan tailored to your individual needs.
