Sofwave Body
In Tribeca, NYC
At La Reservé Aesthetics and wellness, sofwave body offers a nonsurgical way to address loose, crepey skin on areas such as the abdomen, arms, and thighs. The treatment uses focused ultrasound energy to encourage the body’s own collagen renewal beneath the surface. There are no incisions or needles, and most people return to their day right after a session. Each plan is tailored to your goals so results look natural and refined.
What Is Sofwave Body?
Sofwave body is a noninvasive skin tightening treatment that delivers ultrasound energy into the mid-dermis, the layer of skin where collagen and elastin are produced. This controlled energy triggers a natural repair response that rebuilds collagen fibers over the following months. The device includes built-in cooling to protect the outer skin while energy reaches the target depth. It is designed for body areas where skin laxity develops with age, weight changes, or pregnancy.
What Does Sofwave Body Treat?
Sofwave Body tightens skin below the neck. It treats:
-
Loose skin on the abdomen
-
Skin laxity on the upper arms
-
Loose skin on the thighs and above the knees
-
Laxity after weight loss or pregnancy
-
Crepey skin on the buttocks
-
Loss of firmness from aging
Treatment at a Glance
A typical sofwave body visit takes place in a private treatment room and involves no anesthesia or incisions. Session length depends on the size and number of areas treated. Many patients need only one session, while others benefit from a short series based on the degree of laxity. Results build gradually as new collagen forms.
Preparing for Your Session
- Your Personal Consultation
Your journey begins with a private conversation about your goals, lifestyle, and the areas that concern you most. Your practitioner evaluates skin quality and laxity to determine whether sofwave body is a good fit. Together you will map out a plan that reflects what you want to achieve.
- Building a Tailored Plan
Some patients see the strongest improvement when sofwave body is paired with another approach. Depending on your goals, your plan may include Morpheus8 Body for texture or Medical Weight Loss to support overall contouring. Your practitioner will recommend the timing that suits your skin.
- Steps Before Treatment Day
Arrive with clean skin in the treatment area, free of lotions or self-tanner. Wearing comfortable, loose clothing makes it easy to access the area being treated. Share any recent sun exposure or skin treatments so your practitioner can plan accordingly.
What Happens During Treatment
- Cleansing and Gel Application
The treatment area is cleansed to remove oils and residue. A layer of ultrasound gel is then applied to help the energy travel evenly into the skin. This step takes only a few minutes.
- Mapping the Treatment Zones
Your practitioner outlines the zones to be treated so each section receives consistent coverage. This mapping reflects the specific laxity patterns noted during your consultation. It helps produce balanced, natural-looking tightening across the area.
- Delivering the Ultrasound Energy
The handpiece glides across the skin in a systematic pattern, delivering pulses of ultrasound energy to the mid-dermis. Most people describe a warm, tingling sensation as each pulse is released. Integrated cooling keeps the surface of the skin comfortable throughout.
- Finishing Your Session
Once all zones are treated, the gel is gently wiped away. Your practitioner reviews aftercare guidance and answers any remaining questions. You can then dress and continue with your day.

Aftercare and Returning to Routine
Sofwave body requires no downtime, so you can return to work and daily activities right away. For the first 24 hours, protect treated skin from the sun and avoid excessive heat such as hot tubs or intense workouts. Staying hydrated and following a consistent skincare routine supports healthy collagen renewal.
When You Will See Results
Collagen rebuilding takes time, so improvement appears gradually rather than all at once. Some patients notice early firmness within the first few weeks, while most see firmer, smoother skin developing over three to six months after treatment. Final results are best judged once this collagen remodeling period is complete.

What does Sofwave Body feel like?
Most patients feel a warm, tingling sensation as each pulse of energy is delivered. Built-in cooling helps keep the skin surface comfortable during treatment.
Which body areas can be treated?

How many sessions will I need?
Many people see improvement after one session, while others benefit from a short series. The right number depends on your degree of laxity and your goals.
Can Sofwave Body be combined with other treatments?
