What happens during a Sofwave session?

You may feel a warm sensation after a Sofwave treatment in South Barrington at Renee Burke MD as the device pulses across the skin. This warmth is the energy moving deep into the tissue to stimulate new collagen production. No need to worry about sensitivity to warmth, as our topical numbing cream keeps your experience comfortable and relaxing. Some patients compare the feeling to a light pressure or mild heat. Sofwave uses integrated cooling to protect the outer layer while treating beneath the skin’s surface.

Can Sofwave improve cellulite?

Yes. Sofwave softens the look of dimpling caused by loose connective tissue. The ultrasound energy improves firmness, which helps smooth uneven textures and contours. When skin gains strength from within, surface irregularities fade. During a Sofwave treatment in South Barrington at RBMD, your provider focuses on areas where skin laxity and mild cellulite often appear. This can include the thighs, abdomen, or buttocks.

How does Sofwave support long-term skin health?

By stimulating collagen production, Sofwave strengthens the skin’s internal support system, improving elasticity and firmness over time. As collagen levels build, your skin becomes more resilient to movement, gravity, and environmental stressors. When you receive a Sofwave treatment in South Barrington, your skin immediately softens and promotes lasting strength. This dual action makes Sofwave a valuable part of any ongoing skin health strategy.

Your Sofwave Journey

At Renee Burke MD, we encourage you throughout every treatment process.

Consultation

Taking time to understand your concerns and evaluate your skin allows our team to create a treatment plan that matches your skin goals and needs.

Treatment

We apply a topical numbing cream before the session begins. The Sofwave device then delivers focused ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production below the surface.

Results

Over time, the skin firms and smooths, allowing laxity to fade as structure rebuilds, revealing a lifted appearance with improved contour and tone.

Being new to the area, I was looking for a place to continue getting occasional facials and some product expertise to control milia and hyperpigmentation on my face. Via Google reviews I found Renee’s practice and was set up with Tina for my first consult and diamond glow facial. From the first step into the building, I felt appreciated, welcomed, and heard. I never once felt I was being upsold on products or treatments, and I enjoyed the facial itself. I’m looking forward to coming back again.

I have been seeing Tracy at Dr Renee Burke’s MedSpa for the past year and there is no one else I would rather trust with my skin/face! Tracy is so welcoming, making you feel comfortable and ease throughout the whole process. She listens and does not try and push products or services on you. I first saw Tracy for lip filler and botox. Tracy has fixed past work other MedSpas did and suggested new treatments that have since made me feel a lot more confident. Recently, Tracy suggest I try the Moxi Laser to help treat my sun damage. This was the best money I have ever spent & I can’t wait to come back and do it again! Whether you are looking for a good injector or esthetician for facials and lasers, Tracy is your girl!

Love this office! All of the girl's are so nice and the space is absolutely stunning! I see Gina every 4 weeks for facials and peels. My skin was doing weird things after I turned 30 and she help me get it back to normal / smooth and has helped with scaring. I highly recommend Renee Burkes office!
