Sofwave™
in Beverly Hills
A non-surgical lift with no downtime
Sofwave™ ultrasound skin tightening is now available at Snatched Beverly Hills. The same anatomy-first precision that defines the Snatched Technique is applied to one of the most advanced non-invasive lifting technologies available today. If your skin is beginning to soften along the jawline, the brow feels heavier than it used to, or the neck has lost its definition, and you are not ready for surgery, Sofwave™ may be exactly where you start.
What Is Sofwave™?
Sofwave™ is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive ultrasound device that lifts and tightens skin by stimulating collagen production in the mid-dermis, the structural layer of the skin responsible for firmness, elasticity, and the clean contours that characterize a youthful face.
Unlike radiofrequency or microneedling devices that work at the skin surface, Sofwave™ delivers synchronized parallel beam technology (SUPERB) at a precise depth of 1.5 millimeters beneath the surface. This means the energy reaches the tissue that matters for structural tightening without disrupting the epidermis above it. The result is effective lifting with zero surface damage and zero downtime.
Collagen production begins in response to the controlled thermal energy. Over the following 12 weeks, new collagen fibers remodel the treated tissue, producing progressive tightening and lifting that continues to improve after the treatment itself is complete.
How Sofwave™ Works
During a Sofwave™ treatment at Snatched Beverly Hills, the Sofwave™ handpiece is moved across the treatment area while delivering focused ultrasound energy in precise, controlled pulses. The device uses real-time imaging to confirm tissue depth and energy delivery at every pass, ensuring the treatment reaches the correct anatomical layer.
A built-in cooling mechanism protects the skin surface throughout the procedure. Most patients describe a warming or mild heating sensation during treatment. A topical numbing cream is applied beforehand to maximize comfort. A full-face treatment typically takes between 30 and 45 minutes.
After treatment, patients return to normal activity immediately. There is no healing period, no restrictions, and no visible evidence of the procedure. Results build gradually over 12 weeks as collagen production increases, with many patients reporting continued improvement up to six months after a single session.
What Sofwave™ Treats
At Snatched Beverly Hills, master injectors Ani Malkhasyan and Sadiyah Karimi incorporate Sofwave™ into the Snatched Regimen as a collagen-stimulating foundation for patients who want structural tightening alongside their injectable and regenerative treatments. Sofwave™ addresses the following concerns:
Brow Descent
Gradual brow descent creates a heavy, tired appearance that injectables alone cannot always fully correct. Sofwave™ tightens the skin and underlying tissue in the forehead and lateral brow area, producing a subtle, natural brow lift that opens the eye area without the frozen quality associated with excessive neuromodulator use.
Jawline Laxity and Early Jowling
As the skin along the lower face begins to soften and lose definition, the jawline becomes less distinct and jowling develops. Sofwave™ tightens the tissue along the jawline and lower face, improving definition and restoring the clean jaw-to-neck transition that is often the first thing people notice when they look younger.
Neck Laxity and Skin Texture
The neck is one of the most telling areas of aging and one of the hardest to treat non-surgically. Sofwave™ addresses mild to moderate neck laxity by stimulating collagen remodeling in the deeper tissue layers, tightening crepey skin, and improving overall neck texture. For patients not yet ready for surgical neck work, Sofwave™ fills a meaningful gap in the non-surgical toolkit.
Submental Area
Sofwave™ can tighten the skin beneath the chin, improving definition in the submental area. For patients who have had Kybella or submental liposuction, Sofwave™ is an excellent complement that tightens the overlying skin as the fat layer is reduced.
Overall Facial Skin Quality and Firmness
Beyond targeted lifting, Sofwave™ produces a broad improvement in skin firmness, elasticity, and texture throughout the treated area. Patients who incorporate Sofwave™ into their Snatched Regimen often report that their injectable treatments look more refined and last longer, because the structural tissue quality supporting those treatments has improved.
Sofwave™ at Snatched Beverly Hills
Snatched Beverly Hills was founded by master injectors Ani Malkhasyan and Sadiyah Karimi with a single focus: to elevate the standard of non-surgical facial rejuvenation. The Snatched Technique is an anatomy-first approach that integrates advanced technologies, injectables, laser, and energy-based treatments to deliver undetectable, structurally sound results.
Sofwave™ fits precisely within that framework. It is not offered as a standalone quick fix. It is offered as a component of the Snatched Regimen, a comprehensive, long-term treatment plan designed to restore balance, improve skin quality, and maintain results with precision and consistency. When Sofwave™ is recommended at your consultation, it is because the structure of your face calls for it. Not because it is trending. Because it is the right tool for what your skin needs.
How Sofwave™ Fits Into the Snatched Regimen
Sofwave™ is most often incorporated as a collagen-stimulating foundation in the following contexts:
- Alongside injectables and PDO threads to provide deeper structural tightening that complements the lifting achieved through other modalities
- As a maintenance treatment for patients who have had significant results and want to preserve them between injectable sessions
- For patients in their 30s and 40s who want to begin stimulating collagen before significant laxity develops, building a structural foundation that reduces how much intervention they need later
- As a preparatory treatment before other procedures, supporting tissue integrity and collagen density
What to Expect at Your Sofwave™ Appointment
Before Your Treatment
Arrive with clean skin, free of makeup, lotion, and skincare products. Avoid anti-inflammatory medications in the days before your appointment if medically appropriate for you, and minimize direct sun exposure in the week prior. Your provider at Snatched Beverly Hills will review your treatment areas, confirm your goals, and apply topical numbing cream before beginning.
During Your Treatment
The Sofwave™ handpiece is moved across the treatment area in passes. You will feel warmth as the ultrasound energy is delivered. Most patients describe the sensation as tolerable and the procedure as significantly more comfortable than they expected. A full-face treatment takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes. Focused area treatments, such as brow or neck only, take less time.
After Your Treatment
You can return to your normal routine, including work and social activities, immediately. Some patients experience mild redness or swelling at the treatment site for a few hours. These effects resolve the same day for most patients. There are no restrictions on activity, no wound care, and no visible evidence of the procedure.
Your Results
Initial improvement in skin texture and firmness may be noticeable within a few weeks. The full extent of results develops over 12 weeks as new collagen matures and continues to improve for up to six months after a single treatment. Results from a single Sofwave™ session typically last 12 months or longer, depending on individual factors including skin condition, age, and lifestyle. Your provider at Snatched Beverly Hills will advise on maintenance treatments to sustain your results over time.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Sofwave™?
Sofwave™ is appropriate for patients in their 30s through 60s who are experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity and want to improve the firmness and definition of their face and neck without surgery or downtime. It is safe for all skin types and tones, including darker skin, because ultrasound energy does not carry the risk of hyperpigmentation associated with some laser and light-based devices. Sofwave™ is particularly well-suited for patients who:
- Want structural collagen stimulation to complement their existing injectable or thread treatments
- Are not yet candidates for surgical lifting, but want more than injectables alone can achieve
- Prefer a single-session treatment with no recovery period
- Are in their 30s or 40s and want to proactively build collagen density before significant laxity develops
- Have had surgical procedures and want to maintain and extend their results non-surgically
Sofwave™ is not appropriate for patients with active skin infections, open wounds, or implanted electronic devices in the treatment area. Your provider will review your medical history and confirm candidacy at your consultation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Sofwave™ painful?

Sofwave™ tightens the skin and underlying tissue in the forehead and lateral brow area, producing a subtle, natural brow lift that opens the eye area without the frozen quality associated with excessive neuromodulator use.
Is there any downtime after Sofwave™?
No. Sofwave™ has zero downtime. Patients return to work, social activities, and exercise immediately after their appointment. Some mild redness or swelling at the treatment site may occur and typically resolves within a few hours.
How soon will I see results?
Initial improvement in skin texture and firmness may be visible within a few weeks of treatment. Full results develop over 12 weeks as new collagen matures. Many patients continue to see improvement for up to six months after their treatment.
How long do Sofwave™ results last?
Results from a single Sofwave™ session typically last 12 months or longer. Maintenance treatments are recommended to sustain results over time. Individual factors, including age, skin condition, and lifestyle, will influence longevity.
Is Sofwave™ safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. Because Sofwave™ uses ultrasound energy rather than light or laser energy, it does not carry the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation associated with some other energy-based devices. Sofwave™ is safe for all skin types and tones.
Can Sofwave™ be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Sofwave™ can be safely combined with injectables, including neuromodulators and dermal fillers, PDO threads, and other non-surgical treatments. At Snatched Beverly Hills, Sofwave™ is often incorporated as one component of a comprehensive Snatched Regimen. Your provider will assess your goals and recommend a personalized plan.
How is Sofwave™ different from Ultherapy or radiofrequency devices?
Sofwave™ uses synchronized parallel beam technology at a precise depth of 1.5 millimeters in the mid-dermis, targeting the specific tissue layer where collagen production is most effective for skin tightening. Unlike radiofrequency devices that work at the surface level, and unlike some ultrasound devices that target deeper SMAS tissue, Sofwave™ is optimized for mid-dermal collagen stimulation with a treatment experience that is generally more comfortable and faster than comparable technologies.
