A brow that has settled lower with age, with the outer upper lid heavier for it, is a use Sofwave is FDA-cleared in the US for: to lift the eyebrow, cleared in 2021 on an 80-patient study. The Lift applicator heats the dermis above the brow and across the forehead about 1.5 mm below the surface with the surface cooled, so the skin contracts and builds collagen over three months and the brow sits a little higher. One session, with a second a few weeks later as the study did where the clinician advises, from £799 at Sofwave Clinic, 8 Devonshire Place, with the price in writing at a free consultation.
What it does at the brow
The lift is of millimetres, measured, and natural: the tail of the brow rises and the upper lid looks more open. A heavy, dropped brow is more than Sofwave lifts, and the clinician says so at the free consultation; the eyelid itself is not treated.
What the study measured
Eighty patients treated twice a few weeks apart: the brow rose by an average of 0.69 mm along its length and 0.78 mm at its highest point. Blinded reviewers picked the after photograph correctly in 79% of cases, the treating physicians rated 80% as improved, 55% of patients reported improvement, and one transient side effect resolved with a cream. The brow and eyes page sets it out beside the eye area.
The session and the result
Numbing cream for 45 to 60 minutes, then about 20 minutes for the brow and forehead; redness for a few hours and mild swelling up to a day, with work and makeup fine the same day. The change shows from six to eight weeks and peaks at three months, when we take the after photograph, and in our experience it holds for around a year.
