The liftHD Body Contouring Applicator from Sofwave
The liftHD applicator by Sofwave utilizes the same SUPERB pulse technology with broader, higher density controlled thermal zones resulting in less pulses per treatment, thereby reducing treatment time by ~40%.
Key features include:
- Precise depth control. The thermal treatment zone is precisely placed between 0.5 mm and 1.8 mm to stimulate natural healing and collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production.
- Optimized Energy Delivery. Optimal dermal stimulation is achieved by parallel heating the dermis to a temperature of 149-158°F for a controlled, predictable, and dermally selective treatment outcome.
- Unique Broad Tissue Coverage. Seven parallel beam transducers simultaneously create large, controlled 3D cylindrical thermal zones with each pulse, resulting in optimal treatment coverage in one 30–45-minute treatment.
