Understanding Under-Eye Issues: Hollowness vs. Puffiness
Hollowness
Under-eye hollowness is typically due to a loss of fat and volume under the eyes, creating a sunken or shadowed appearance. This is very common with aging or genetics.
Luckily, there are several effective treatments for hollowness:
- Dermal fillers
- EZ Gel PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)
- Fat transfer
- Skin boosters
These treatments help restore volume and smooth out the under-eye area for a refreshed, youthful look.
Under-Eye Bags (Puffiness)
Under-eye bags, on the other hand, are caused by fat pads pushing outward, usually due to aging, genetics, or fluid retention. This puffiness is more structural in nature—and much harder to treat non-surgically.
For years, the go-to solution for under-eye bags was lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)—an invasive and often expensive option with significant downtime.
Enter Sofwave: A Breakthrough in Non-Invasive Under-Eye Bag Treatment
Sofwave is changing the game. This cutting-edge technology uses SUPERB™ (Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam) to deliver ultrasound energy deep into the skin’s dermis, stimulating new collagen and elastin production.
Here’s why it’s a breakthrough for under-eye bags:
Lifts and tightens the skin naturally
Sofwave helps firm and tighten the skin around the under-eye area, making puffiness less prominent and improving overall eye contour.

Unlike some laser or thermal devices, Sofwave is safe and effective on all skin tones and types.
