Sofwave Pain: Is Numbing Cream Enough? Principles and Tips for Pain Relief

Hello! This is Seye Clinic, embracing all the beauty in the world, and led by a Key Doctor (KOL) and Faculty Medical Team who teach and train other medical professionals.

Recently, many patients visit Seye Clinic concerned about thin skin, and localized loss of elasticity around the eyes and mouth. In particular, those who hesitated on management due to the pain of traditional lifting procedures like Ultherapy or Thermage are most curious about the level of Sofwave pain.

Today, we will explain the principle of Sofwave, its pain relief mechanism, and the essential criteria you must verify before treatment to ensure satisfactory results.

1. The Principle of Sofwave: SUPERB Technology

Sofwave uses its proprietary technology called SUPERB(Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam) to induce elasticity improvement.

• Energy Focus: It precisely concentrates seven powerful, cylindrical ultrasound beams at a depth of 1.5mm in the dermis—the skin's core elasticity layer.
• Mechanism: It induces collagen remodeling without affecting the fat layer, giving it a strong advantage in tightening skin density.

2. Sofwave Pain Level and Management Tips

The level of Sofwave pain can be an excellent alternative for those who were hesitant about traditional lifting procedures due to pain.

• Pain Relief System: Sofwave significantly reduces pain through its integrated SofCool cooling system, which immediately alleviates the heat generated during the procedure.
• Short Procedure Time: Unlike procedures like Ultherapy, which require long treatment times for a high number of shots and thus extensive pain management, Sofwave's shorter duration (approx. 30–40 minutes) means that numbing cream alone is often sufficient.
• Management for Sensitive Patients: For patients highly sensitive to pain, Seye Clinic ensures sufficient application of the numbing cream for 20-30 minutes or more to ease their fear of pain.

3. Sofwave Suitability and Expected Effects

Sofwave is ideal for adding firm density to those whose skin is naturally thin and lacks strength.

4. 3 Pre-Procedure Checks for Satisfactory Results

Even if the Sofwave pain level is similar across clinics, the result depends on the practitioner's skill. To ensure a satisfactory outcome, you must verify the following three points:

• Scientific Consultation: Check that the clinic confirms your current skin condition objectively using EVE LAB precision analysis data and proposes only necessary plans without recommending superfluous treatments.
• Medical Team Expertise: Confirm the medical team has a high understanding of the equipment and excels at treatment design. Seye Clinic has Key Doctors (KOLs) who train other physicians, ensuring they directly perform the design and care.
• Possession of Various Certified Devices: To suggest the 'optimal combination' tailored to your individual skin, it is important to choose a clinic that possesses a variety of certified devices such as Titanium, Tun, and Sofwave.

Conclusion: Making a Smart, Personalized Choice

Sofwave's strength lies in improving the elasticity and texture of thin skin with minimal pain. However, the most important step is receiving an accurate diagnosis from an experienced expert and establishing an optimal treatment plan customized to your facial structure.
