Sofwave — Better Skin Glow at VOS Dermatology Clinic, Gangnam Seoul

Overview

Sofwave in Seoul treats the layer where fine lines live: seven 12MHz ultrasound beams heat the mid-dermis at 1.5mm — the depth optimised for wrinkle depth — while the surface is cooled. It fills in elasticity without the pulling sensation of deeper lifting, which is why VOS lists it among its signature treatments.

Dr. Hongseok Kim recommends Sofwave for thin skin with crinkly lines, for a lifted brow and for patients who want a short session; it is less effective on young skin that has not yet lost elasticity. Results appear from about one month, peak around three, and vary by person.

FAQ

Questions patients ask about Sofwave

Who is Sofwave for?
It works better on thin skin with fine, crinkly wrinkles. On skin that has not started to age — for example, firm skin in the twenties — the effect can be limited.
Is there any downtime after Sofwave?
No. Sofwave has no downtime and you can return to your day immediately.
What is the procedure, and does it hurt?
Numbing cream is applied, removed, and the treatment is performed, followed by moisturising care. Pain varies by person but numbing cream is usually sufficient; side effects are limited to mild swelling or redness that fades within about 20–30 minutes.
When do I see results and how long do they last?
Changes are visible from about one month, the right effect is seen around three months, and it is maintained for roughly six months after that.
What is Sofwave?
A newer laser-class lifting treatment using seven 12MHz ultrasound energy shots optimised for a 1.5mm wrinkle depth, improving both fine and deep wrinkles.
