Everyone always asks what Sofwave feels like… so I tell patients to raise their hand when they feel the pulse.
In this case, we kept increasing the settings trying to get a reaction… and she still didn’t flinch. 😅
To be fair — Sofwave can definitely get a little spicy in certain spots, usually when we’re treating over areas with bone and not much soft tissue (think forehead or sometimes the cheekbones).
But the vast majority of patients describe the treatment as intermittently uncomfortable at its worst, not painful.
Two things that make a big difference:
❄️ Zimmer cooling — aka your comfort cooling bestie
⚙️ Customized settings based on the patient and treatment area
All while delivering ultrasound energy that stimulates collagen and helps tighten and lift over time.
