Sofwave is a non-invasive ultrasound treatment that heats a thin layer of the skin to prompt new collagen and elastin, which lifts and firms the skin over the following months. It suits adults with fine lines, loose skin along the jaw and neck, or loose skin on the arms, abdomen or legs. Sofwave is priced by area, and Dr. G quotes your price at the consultation.
The practice’s Sofwave areas are the face and neck together, the face alone, the neck alone, the eyes and brows, the arms, the abdomen, the legs and the knees. Dr. G confirms which areas suit your skin and gives you the price for them at the consultation.
A $200 consultation fee applies to every appointment with Dr. G. It is non-refundable and is credited in full toward any treatment or procedure you schedule.

Ultrasound that stays near the surface
STEP 1
Parallel beams
Sofwave’s SUPERB technology (Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam) sends ultrasound energy parallel to the collagen and elastin fibers instead of straight down into deeper tissue.
STEP 2
A precise depth
The energy heats a thin layer of the upper dermis, about 1.5 to 2 mm deep, and stays clear of the muscle and fat below it.
STEP 3
A collagen response
That controlled heat prompts the skin to produce new collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
STEP 4
Gradual change
Many patients notice smoother skin right after a session. Full results usually show at around three months. Results vary.
Your Sofwave appointment with Dr. G
Your first visit is a consultation. Dr. G looks at the areas you want to improve, explains whether Sofwave suits your skin, and gives you a personalized plan and price.
During the session most patients feel warmth or tingling, and no numbing cream or anesthesia is used. A face session takes about 30 to 45 minutes, and larger areas take longer.
Dr. G tells you what to expect in the days after, based on the areas treated. The team speaks Spanish. You can go through the whole visit in English or Spanish.
Ask Dr. G which areas Sofwave can treat for you.
When skin needs more than Sofwave
Sofwave fits
- Fine lines and crow’s feet
- Loose skin on the face, jaw or neck
- Patients who want no needles or incisions
Ask about a procedure
- Stubborn fat as well as loose skin: liposuction to remove the fat
- Loose skin over a lipo area: Renuvion with liposuction
- Jawline laxity with small fat pockets: the Junera laser
Sofwave works in the skin, not in the fat beneath it. When fat is part of the problem, Dr. G will talk you through a procedure instead.
