Among the first US practices to offer Sofwave (2021). 5+ years of treatment experience.
86+ Yelp reviews across locations. Consistent praise for dermatologic expertise and results.
UnionDerm wasn't just among the first practices in the country to offer Sofwave—they were there in 2021 when the technology first became available. Five years of Sofwave experience and five board-certified dermatologists create a practice with unmatched clinical depth.
Unlike practices where Sofwave might be delegated to an esthetician or physician assistant, UnionDerm ensures all medical procedures are performed by board-certified dermatologists. Your provider could be Dr. Anne Chapas, a nationally recognized expert in laser and energy-based treatments. Or Dr. Jennifer MacGregor, known for her work in aesthetic dermatology. Or any of the three other top-tier dermatologists on the UnionDerm roster. This breadth of expertise means you're getting dermatologic-level assessment and treatment regardless of which provider you see.
UnionDerm began offering Sofwave in 2021—among the very earliest practices in the country. This means they've treated thousands of patients across five years, refined their protocols based on real-world outcomes, and developed an institutional knowledge of Sofwave that newer providers simply don't have. They've seen what works, what doesn't, and how to tailor treatment for different skin types and concerns.
UnionDerm's multi-location presence reflects both scale and accessibility. Manhattan patients can choose Union Square (near NYU, great for downtown professionals) or Central Park (Midtown). Hamptons patients get East End access without traveling to the city. This geographic spread signals a practice that's built to serve diverse patient populations with consistent quality.
Dermatologists train extensively in skin biology, condition diagnosis, and treatment of skin disease. This background informs how UnionDerm approaches Sofwave—not just as a cosmetic tool, but as a technology that works with your skin's physiology. They assess skin quality, elasticity, and underlying conditions to customize treatment. This dermatologic lens ensures treatments are tailored to your actual skin needs, not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Five years of Sofwave treatment experience means UnionDerm has refined every aspect of the process—from assessment and treatment customization to managing expectations and optimizing results.
Your UnionDerm dermatologist will conduct a detailed skin evaluation before treatment. They're assessing not just skin laxity, but skin quality, underlying conditions, and how Sofwave will interact with your specific skin. This level of assessment prevents mismatches between patient expectations and realistic outcomes.
Five years of Sofwave data means UnionDerm has refined treatment protocols for different face shapes, skin types, and aging patterns. They know which energy levels work best for different areas, how to address asymmetry, and how to achieve natural-looking results that enhance rather than overdraw the face. This experience translates directly to better outcomes.
While some providers limit Sofwave to the face, UnionDerm applies the technology across full-face treatment, jawline and lower face contouring, neck and décolleté tightening, and body areas including abdomen and thighs. Their dermatologic training means they understand how to safely treat different anatomical areas with appropriate settings.
UnionDerm offers a full spectrum of aesthetic dermatology treatments. Sofwave often works beautifully alongside other modalities—lasers for texture, injectables for volume, chemical peels for skin quality. Your dermatologist can recommend combination approaches tailored to your specific goals, not just singular Sofwave treatment.
Board-certified dermatologists have completed medical school, dermatology residency, and board certification exams. They understand skin biology, disease, and aging at a depth that estheticians and nurses don't. This training means more accurate assessment, better customization, and fewer complications. You're getting medical-level expertise, not just technical skill with equipment.
It means UnionDerm has treated thousands of patients with Sofwave since 2021. They've refined their protocols based on years of real-world outcomes. They know what works, what doesn't, and how to troubleshoot for different skin types and concerns. That experience translates to better results and fewer surprises.
Yes. While UnionDerm has five board-certified dermatologists, you can request continuity of care with the same provider for follow-up visits. This ensures consistent assessment and optimal management of your results over time.
UnionDerm offers a full menu of aesthetic dermatology treatments—lasers, injectables, chemical peels, and more. Your dermatologist can recommend combination approaches tailored to your goals.
