Sofwave in Gangnam, Seoul

Quick answer: Sofwave uses parallel beams of ultrasound focused in the mid-dermis, about 1.5 mm deep, to stimulate new collagen for fine lines, mild laxity and a lifted brow, jaw and neck. Its integrated cooling keeps the skin surface protected, and there is typically no downtime. AMRED Clinic in Cheongdam, Gangnam uses it as a comfortable alternative or complement to deeper ultrasound lifting.
