If you’ve started noticing a softer jawline or sagging skin under your chin or neck, you’re not alone, and you don’t need surgery to fix it. Sofwave™ offers a non-invasive, no-downtime solution to lift and tighten these problem areas using advanced ultrasound technology.
What is Sofwave™?
Sofwaves’TM breakthrough technology harnesses the power of ultrasound to stimulate the production of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid to improve skin laxity and give you younger-looking skin without surgery, needles, downtime, or aftercare.
Most patients require only one 30-60 minute session to experience noticeable improvement in sagging skin.
At the West Institute, we have also successfully achieved significant lifting of eyelid skin without surgery by using Sofwave™’s unique “precise” handpiece along the browbone and, in some cases, combining this treatment with Laser-Coring™ (with UltraClear®) to non-surgically remove eyelid skin with minimal healing time. For some patients, this combination non-surgical procedure may replace the need for a surgical blepharoplasty, avoiding surgery, anesthesia, and the scars that result from surgery.
FDA-Cleared Technology for Neck Skin Tightening: Sofwave™
Sofwave™ is FDA-cleared to:
- Improve fine lines and wrinkles
- Lift the eyebrows, neck, and submental area (“double chin”)
- Contour the jawline
- Minimize acne scars
- Improve skin laxity related to cellulite
Why Sofwave™ Makes Your Jawline and Neck Look Younger and Firmer
Sofwave™ for the jawline and neck stimulates collagen and elastin regeneration within the dermis, the layer responsible for skin firmness. The targeted ultrasound energy encourages existing collagen fibers to immediately contract and tighten, visibly firming skin from within. Over the following weeks, newly formed collagen and elastin provide further lifting and firming, naturally redefining the jawline and smoothing the neck.
This combined immediate and ongoing tightening effect results in:
- Sharper, more defined jawline contours
- Reduced appearance of sagging jowls
- Smoother, tighter skin along the neck
By restoring your skin’s foundational support, Sofwave™ delivers a youthful, sculpted appearance, which improves your facial profile without invasive surgery or downtime.

No downtime. You can return to your regular routine immediately after treatment, and no special skincare is required.
