"I'm worried that because my skin is thin,

if I get a lifting treatment my cheeks will hollow out like a skull."

"I don't have much facial fat,

and my skin's elasticity is decreasing..."

Is there a treatment that's right for me?

I want to increase skin elasticity, but cheek hollowingor fat atrophyThere are quite a few people who hesitate to undergo treatment because of these concerns.

One of the devices I suggest those with these concerns consider is Sofwave.

Today, for people with little facial fat and thin skin, useful

the principles of Sofwave, and aspects you should definitely check before the procedureI'll discuss.

Please read carefully for a moment! ^^

01. Why lifting devices should be chosen carefully for thin skin

Ultrasound (HIFU)lifting devices that use deliver thermal stimulation to skin tissue by focusing energy at a set depth.

Depending on which device is used and how the energy is set, the energy can reach deeper skin layers or the area around the fat layer.

These procedures can improve skin sagging or facial contourscan help with that.

However, for people with low facial fat, there is a possibility that volume may change depending on the treatment area or energy settingsthat should also be considered.

So if you're worried about cheek hollowness, rather than simply looking at which device is popular,

it's better to check carefully how deep the energy reaches and what the current facial fat distribution is, and confirm those details thoroughly.

02. Sofwave's mechanism acting mainly on the dermis

Then, Sofwavewhat characteristics does it have?

Unlike the conventional method that delivers energy in a dot pattern, Sofwave is a device that delivers thermal stimulation into the skin using cylindrical ultrasound energy.It is.

The main target area is themid-dermis located at approximately 1.5 mm depth from the skin surface,and

this area contains components involved in skin structure and elasticity, such as collagen and elastin.

Therefore, those who want to maintain facial volume while improving skin elasticity and fine linesmay consider it.

However, there is one thing you should be aware of.

Just because it does not primarily target the deep fat layer, does not mean the possibility of fat atrophy or hollowing of the cheeks is completely eliminated..

Treatment outcomes can vary depending on skin condition and the treatment method.

So rather than assuming it will definitely be suitable just because your skin is thin or you have little facial fat,

it's better to first assess your current skin condition.

03. A different approach may be necessary for severe sagging

So can Sofwave alone solve all skin concerns?

Not necessarily.

If your main concern is severe skin laxity or deep tissue changes such as a double chin or loss of the jawlinethen,

It may be difficult to achieve the expected contour changes with Sofwave alone.

In such cases, how much the skin has sagged and what caused the jawline to weaken are examined, and other lifting devices may be considered.

If necessary, combining multiple procedures can also be reviewed.

The important thing is not to choose the trending device first, but to first identify what changes your skin needs now,.

Even with the same lifting concerns, the appropriate method can vary depending on skin thickness, fat distribution, and degree of saggingPlease keep that in mind.

I will treat you sincerely.

<Sofwave Q&A>

Question	Answer
Q. How much pain is there during the procedure?	A. Sofwave has a cooling system that protects the skin surface while energy is delivered. This can help reduce heat and discomfort, but the level of pain felt can vary from person to person.
Q. When do results start to appear?	A. You may feel a tightening sensation in the skin immediately after the procedure, but changes from collagen remodeling can appear gradually over time. However, because the timing and degree of change vary depending on the condition of the skin,it is difficult to say that effects will necessarily appear from a specific time point.
Q. Can I return to normal daily activities immediately after the procedure?	A. Sofwave is a non-invasive procedure that does not injure the skin surface, so you can generally return to daily activities relatively quickly. However, redness, swelling, or tenderness may occur after the procedure, and recovery varies by person. Most people can resume daily activities without major problems, but please monitor your skin's reaction after the procedure and follow the precautionssuch as cleansing or applying makeup as instructed by the medical staff.
