While you might not have given your neck a lot of thought when you were younger, you probably obsess about it now.
The combination of thin skin, poor adherence to underlying muscle, and the tendency of your middle face to sag into your lower face makes your neck wrinkle and droop. It’s probably the thing you notice first in the mirror.
You may have tried a variety of topical tightening treatments, such as creams and gels. Some of them don’t work at all. Some of them offered a brief window of tightening , but then you were back to your turkey neck, right in the middle of a party.
Dr. Luis Lee and our team know how distressing neck bands and sagging skin can be as you move through the life cycle. That’s why we now offer Sofwave™ treatments for smoothing and firming your neck at our offices in Roseville, California.
Do you want a firmer, smoother neck? Here’s how Sofwave can help.
Collagen pills. Collagen drinks. Collagen creams. You’ve tried them all, and they haven’t made a significant difference in your skin, particularly not your own skin.
Instead of trying to add collagen from the outside, switch things up and create it from the inside. That’s exactly what Sofwave does.
FDA-cleared Sofwave uses Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam (i.e., SUPERB™) technology to generate heat deep in your mid-dermis — in other words, the layer below your epidermis, the surface of your skin. The ultrasound energy stimulates your skin cells to create more collagen.
As your mid-dermis skin cells create more and more collagen, the mid-dermis grows thicker and stronger. In turn, your epidermis smooths out, effectively erasing wrinkles and minimizing sagging.
The addition of new collagen is like inflating a deflated raft. The droopy sagginess gets pushed out and firmed. Your skin looks and feels thicker, better supported, and smoother.
One of the advantages to a surgical facelift or neck lift is that it’s considered a one-and-done procedure. After your surgery, you maintain your benefits over the long term, sometimes for 10 years or more.
A disadvantage to former nonsurgical facial rejuvenation techniques is that you usually need a series of 3-6 treatments of just 30-45 minutes to get a significant lift and smoothing. But many women and men find that they only need one Sofwave treatment to get the results they want.
Sofwave keeps your epidermis cool and protected with an integrated cooling mechanism called Sofcool™. You stay comfortable during your treatment and can go back to your normal activities directly afterward.
Unlike lasers or surgery, there’s no recovery period. You don’t have a noticeably reddened face or neck. In addition to treating your neck, you can also choose to treat other areas during your same session, including brow lines and facial wrinkles.
And also unlike some lasers, you don’t have to worry if your skin tone is very light or very dark. Sofwave is safe for all skin tones.
