Platform General System Information
The information below reflects general manufacturer specifications for Sofwave platforms. Included handpieces and configuration may vary with each specific unit.
Sofwave CONSUMABLES AND RECERTIFICATION
Does Sofwave Medical Charge a One Time Recertification Fee for the Purchase of Pulse/Transducer Beam Credits? Yes, however, we do not recommend that you pay for recertification if the current owner is willing to represent it for the purchase of consumables.
Cost of Recertification: $25,000 – this recertification fee must be paid only if the current owner is not representing the system for the purchase of credits.
Consumables Required: Pulse/Transducer Beam Credits. Can be purchased through Sofwave Medical.
Sofwave PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS

Session & Downtime: Typically a single 30-to-45-minute procedure with minimal to zero downtime.
Frequency: ~10-12 MHz ultrasound.
Energy Output: 1 – 5 Joules per pulse.
Heating Temperature: Achieves localized dermal heating between 60°C – 70°C to induce controlled coagulation.
Dimension approx: 122 × 40 × 40 cm (48″ × 15.75″ × 15.75″) in one brochure.
Display & Interface: Integrated color touchscreen console.
Weight: approx ~52 kg (114.6 lbs) in that same spec sheet.
Electrical: 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 8 A max (as given in one spec sheet).
Applicators / Handpieces
Hand-piece: Ergonomic, lightweight applicator equipped with a solid-state energizer module.
Treatment area widths:
Precise Applicator: ~15 mm width.
Lift Applicator: ~35 mm width.
Smooth Applicator: ~70 mm width.
Energy per PZT (piezo-electric transducer) channel:
For Lift and Precise: ~3-5 J per channel.
For Smooth: ~2.6-7 J per channel.
Transducers:
Operates using parallel heating via a multi-transducer array (typically a 7-transducer beam array for large coverage).
Sofwave MANUFACTURER NOTES
The Sofwave system is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared medical device that uses ultrasound technology to tighten skin, lift targeted areas, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles
How It Works
- SUPERBâ„¢ Technology: It uses Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam technology, which sends parallel beams of ultrasound energy 1.5 mm deep into the mid-dermis.
- Collagen & Elastin Stimulation: The heat generated by the ultrasound waves triggers a natural healing response, stimulating the production of new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.
- Sofcoolâ„¢ Protection: An integrated cooling mechanism protects the outer layer of the skin (epidermis) from burning or damage while treating the deeper layers.
Applicators / Handpieces
1. Lift Applicator
Primary Use: Face and neck.
Design: This is the standard, traditional handpiece. It is equipped with 7 parallel ultrasound transducers operating simultaneously to efficiently treat larger areas like the cheeks, jawline, submental region, and neck.
2. Precise Applicator
Primary Use: Hard-to-reach, small, or highly curved anatomical areas – Eyes & Mouth
Design: This is a more compact, lightweight version of the standard handpiece designed to target delicate regions like around the eyes (periorbital) and mouth (perioral) with greater flexibility and operator control. It features 3 synchronized transducers.
3. liftHDâ„¢ Body Applicator
Primary Use: Larger body areas.
Design: Specifically re-engineered for body contouring and treating skin laxity across broader areas. It features an increased transducer size to generate larger thermal zones, optimizing treatment density and efficiency when working on contours like the arms or abdomen.
All three handpieces utilize the exact same clinically proven SUPERBâ„¢ technology and integrated SofCoolâ„¢ epidermal skin protection, meaning they plug into the existing Sofwave Console without requiring system modifications.
Treatment Parameters / Use
Typical full face + neck treatment time: ~30–45 minutes.
Safe for all skin types (Fitzpatrick I-VI) because ultrasound is less affected by pigmentation than light/laser treatments.
Indicated Uses & FDA Clearances
- Facial Wrinkles & Fine Lines: Cleared to improve the appearance of facial fine lines and wrinkles.
- Eyebrow Lift: Cleared for non-surgical lifting of the eyebrow tissue.
- Submental (Under-Chin) & Jawline Lift: Cleared for lifting and tightening tissue under the chin and along the jawline to address mild-to-moderate skin laxity and jowling.
- Neck Lift & Tightening: Cleared to lift and tighten sagging skin on the neck.
- Upper Arms: Cleared to improve skin laxity and tighten the appearance of the upper arms.
- General Body/Skin Laxity & Cellulite: Used in clinical settings for non-invasive skin tightening and cellulite reduction on areas like the chest, abdomen, and extremities (ages 22 and older).
- Acne Scars: Utilized as a non-invasive treatment option to improve the appearance of acne scars.
