Sofwave Was a Waste of Money

I am 31 years old and I did sofwave on my lower face. I had heard good things about it from people so I decided to give it a try. I was not looking for any life changing or face lift type results... I am a realistic, but I was hoping for just a little tightening around my cheeks bones because I had just started to notice some smile lines coming in. I was interested in sofwave because I had read it was similar to ultherapy but it didn't penetrate as deep so there was less of a concern for fast melting. I waited just over 3 months to write this review as they say it takes that long to notice your results. I also specifically chose a provider that had been using sofwave for a long time and had a lot of experience with the device. When I met with the Dr. I wasn't even fully sure I wanted sofwave, I wanted to talk it out with her and see if it was the right fit for me. Of course she said it was and told me it was the best for the type of results I wanted. She did not use any type of numbing cream on me or pain reliever as she said numbing creaming does do much for this device. It was 30-45 minutes of straight pain! I am now over 3 months post treatment and I don't notice any results all. Nothing. The other issue I have is I never heard from the provider after my treatment, not even one single check in. I guess with this treatment they don't check in with their patients? but given the price I had hoped she would. So if you're considering Sofwave let this be your warning.
