Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a prospective, open label, multi-center, self-controlled clinical study to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of SofWave treatment to lift lax tissue in the submental and neck zones and to lift the eyebrow.

Up to 112 healthy candidates who are seeking treatment from participating investigators will be enrolled at up to 5 participating study sites. Patients will receive 2 treatments (4-6 weeks ± 2 weeks apart) with the SofWave system and will be followed up to 3 months post the last treatment (FU2).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Sofwave Treatments

Intervention Type DEVICE

The device used in this study will be the SofWave system manufactured by SofWave Medical ltd. The SofWave device is an ultrasonic system combined with an inherent cooling system that generates High Intensity non-focused Ultrasonic pulses (HIUS), causing a controlled thermal damage by elevating the temperature to 60-70°C in the dermis layer while sparing the epidermal layer using surface cooling. Each patient would receive 2 Sofwave treatments on the face and/or the neck.
