In 2020, I lost 65 pounds. It was a journey. I’ve kept the weight off for four years, but I’ve been left with loose skin on certain body parts that no workout regimen, skin-tightening cream, or at-home toning device can handle. Doctors have repeatedly told me that surgery is the fix: A tummy tuck, an arm lift via a Brachioplasty, or a leg lift with a Thighplasty. The reality is that I’m in my 20s, don’t want to go under the knife, and my skin laxity (aka, how loose the skin is)—while not something that boosts my confidence perse—doesn’t bother me enough to outweigh the risks of these procedures.
I’ve always been on team do-what-makes-you-happy when it comes to plastic surgery, dermatology, or body sculpting (so long as its safe and doctor-approved). So when I learned that Sofwave, which has long been loved by doctors and patients as a skin-tightening tool that sculpts the jawline, received FDA approval for the arms, I genuinely don’t think I could have signed myself up faster.
