Maintaining healthy and youthful skin is a feat for individuals to go through independently. Sometimes, skincare routines and at-home products don’t do the trick. Knowing the perfect treatment for your skin can be hard to find. Combining specific skincare treatments can enhance your results, leaving you with the skin you love. Thanks to Dr. Harris and our professionals at Reflections Center for Cosmetic Medicine, common skin concerns such as tightness and aging can be addressed with professional skincare treatments. Dr. Harris recommends combining Sofwave™, Ultherapy, and Radiesse® for the best skin tightening results. Learn more about this combination of treatments and decide if it is right for you!
What is Sofwave?
Sofwave skin tightening treatment can reduce wrinkles and sagging skin with ultrasound waves. These stimulate the body’s collagen production, improving the tightness of the skin.
What is Ultherapy?
Ultherapy is another treatment option ideal for tightening, lifting, and improving the skin’s overall texture. This procedure uses ultrasound energy to stimulate the body’s collagen production and enhance the look and feel of your skin.
What is Radiesse?
Radiesse is a dermal filler intended for smoothing moderate to severe facial folds and wrinkles in the lower face. This treatment is injected into areas with lines and folds, such as the nasolabial folds on the lower face.
What is the Combination Treatment?
Dr. Harris recommends a combination of Ultherapy with Sofwave and Radiesse, a bio-stimulatory filler. Ultherapy and Sofwave are both ultrasound treatments that create tiny, controlled facial injuries at different levels. These treatments combine well because Ultherapy reaches deep into the muscle level, around 4.5 mm, while Sofwave is more superficial, targeting the deeper layer of the skin at about 2 mm.
Combine that with Radiesse, which is a bio-stimulatory filler that stimulates collagen instead of just filling. We dilute it with saline and then apply it as a layer under the skin. You’ll see an enhanced result when combined with procedures like Ultherapy and Sofwave.
What Areas Does the Treatment Target?
Dr. Harris recommends this combination once a year, focusing specifically on the lower face. She targets the submental area where Ultherapy is applied. She also suggests using Sofwave for the upper part of the face and neck to improve skin quality.
Who is a Candidate for Treatment?
This combination treatment is a great way to maintain your skin’s plumpness and elasticity while keeping everything as tight as possible. It is important to note that it is not a dramatic change; if you have very loose skin and a lot of jowling, surgery might be necessary. But if you aim to maintain or slightly improve, this procedure is excellent for you.
