Next-generation ultrasound lifting that targets the mid-dermis to smooth fine lines and lift the brow, jawline, and neck — with minimal downtime in most cases.
Sofwave is a non-invasive lifting treatment that uses Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam technology to deliver energy precisely to the mid-dermis. By heating this layer in fractional zones, it stimulates fresh collagen and elastin to smooth fine lines and lift the eyebrow, jawline, and neck.
Integrated surface cooling keeps the skin comfortable and protected. Performed in Gangnam, Seoul, each session is tailored to your skin, with minimal downtime and multilingual care for international patients.
Sofwave concentrates ultrasound energy in the mid-dermis — deep enough to stimulate collagen, while surface cooling protects the skin above.


At DayBeau Gangnam, Sofwave is never one-size-fits-all. Our doctors evaluate skin laxity, fine lines, and treatment areas before setting the right energy levels for your skin.

Sofwave is a non-invasive ultrasound lifting treatment that delivers energy to the mid-dermis to stimulate collagen and elastin, smoothing fine lines and lifting the brow, jawline, and neck.
Both use ultrasound, but Sofwave concentrates energy in the mid-dermis with built-in cooling for comfort, while Ultherapy reaches the deeper SMAS layer. Your doctor advises which suits your goals.
Most patients find it comfortable thanks to integrated cooling. You may feel brief warmth as energy is delivered, and settings can be adjusted for comfort.
Most sessions take approximately 30–45 minutes depending on the treatment areas.
Downtime is minimal to none. Mild redness may appear briefly and usually settles within an hour or two.
Some firmness may be felt early, with lifting and smoothing building gradually over 6–12 weeks as collagen renews. Individual results vary.
Many patients see improvement after a single session, though your doctor may recommend additional sessions based on your skin and goals.
Sofwave is designed to be suitable across a range of skin tones. Your doctor confirms suitability during consultation.
Yes. Sofwave is often planned alongside radiofrequency tightening, skin boosters, or regenerative treatments, since each addresses a different layer or concern. Your doctor confirms the right combination and sequence during consultation.
We provide clear aftercare guidance for hydration and sun protection. You can stay in touch with our team through your preferred channel for follow-up questions after you return home.
Yes — our interpreters are in-house, not on the phone. English, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Japanese, and Thai speakers are part of the clinic team, so your consultation, treatment day, and aftercare all happen in your language. Let us know your preferred language when you book.
Often, yes. Same-day treatment is possible for many procedures when your schedule is limited, subject to your Personal Consultant Session and the Doctor's Treatment Design. Share your travel dates when you first contact us and we can usually confirm in advance whether what you are considering fits the time you have in Gangnam.
For most treatments at DayBeau Gangnam, flying shortly afterwards is not a problem. Procedures involving swelling or a short recovery period are the exception, and we will tell you the recommended interval before you book rather than on the day. Please share your flight details during your Personal Consultant Session so aftercare can be planned around your departure.
Tell us your skin concerns, travel dates, and preferred language. Our global care team will help you choose the right treatment plan before you arrive in Korea.
