Skin tightening

Sofwave: The Lifting Protocol

A non-invasive way to firm and lift the appearance of skin on the face, neck and brow — using focused ultrasound, with no needles and minimal downtime.

What it is

How it works.

Sofwave is a medical-grade ultrasound skin-tightening device that uses SUPERB™ technology — Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam — to deliver precise energy at exactly 1.5mm depth into the mid-dermis. This targeted heating triggers a natural collagen regeneration response, gradually tightening and lifting the skin from within over 12 weeks.

Unlike older ultrasound devices, Sofwave features an integrated cooling system that continuously protects the skin surface while energy is delivered beneath — making the treatment significantly more comfortable and removing the need for topical anaesthetic in most cases. Clients consistently report a tolerable warming sensation rather than discomfort.

Sofwave is cleared by the TGA and FDA and has been validated in multiple clinical trials. It is appropriate for the face, neck, brow and selected body areas. At Eternity Laser & Aesthetics, Sofwave is personally delivered by Monica Dimian RN, ensuring clinical precision and individualised care.

Who it’s for

  • Skin laxity and mild to moderate sagging
  • Brow heaviness and hooding
  • Skin aging in the mid-face and jawline
  • Those seeking no-downtime aesthetic treatments
  • Neck laxity and vertical banding
  • Proactive anti-ageing investment

The pace

Quiet is part of the treatment.

The room is warm and the pace is yours. A Sofwave session runs at the speed of comfort — no rush to the next chair, no clock that matters.

The standard

One nurse, start to finish.

The clinician who assesses your skin is the one who treats it. Nothing about your plan is handed down a line.

For everyone

Lifting isn't gendered.

Men book this room too — the protocol is the same considered one, assessed on your skin rather than a template.

Honest downtime

What recovery really looks like.

First few hours

Mild warmth or redness is common and settles quickly. You can wear makeup and return to your day.

First week

Skin feels normal. Occasionally there is slight tenderness to touch, which passes.

6–12 weeks

Collagen remodelling continues, so the firming effect builds gradually. Individual results vary; a review is recommended.

Questions

Good to know.

How many Sofwave treatments will I need?+

Most clients achieve their desired outcome with a single Sofwave treatment. Results continue to develop over 12 weeks as your body produces new collagen. Annual maintenance treatments are recommended to sustain the effect as skin naturally ages.

Is Sofwave painful?+

Sofwave is well-tolerated. You may feel a mild warming sensation as the ultrasound energy is delivered, but the integrated cooling system protects the skin surface throughout. Most clients find it comfortable with no anaesthetic required.

What is the downtime after Sofwave?+

There is minimal to no downtime. You may experience slight redness or mild swelling for a few hours after treatment, but most clients return to normal activities immediately. Makeup can be applied on the same day.

When will I see results from Sofwave?+

Initial tightening can be noticed within weeks, but the full result of Sofwave emerges at around 12 weeks as new collagen matures. The skin continues to improve for up to 6 months after treatment.

How does Sofwave differ from older ultrasound treatments?+

Sofwave uses SUPERB™ technology delivering energy at a precise 1.5mm depth into the mid-dermis. This is more superficial than older focused ultrasound devices, meaning less discomfort, no anaesthetic, and no downtime, while still producing well-documented collagen stimulation.
