Open-label, randomized double-arm prospective, single-center, self-controlled clinical study.

Eligible subjects are patients who are interested in starting treatment with Tirzepatide injections.

Subjects will be divided into two groups. The test group will include at least 10 subjects who will be treated to characterize changes in facial and neck skin laxity as well as facial wrinkles in relation to SofWave treatment, in a population of subjects beginning Tirzepatide for weight loss.

The control group will also include at least 10 subjects, who will not be treated.

In addition, small superficial punch biopsies in the submental area will be taken from 3 subjects in each group.

All Subjects will receive their first Tirzepatide injection within 48 hours after baseline assessment (± biopsy).

Treatment Group:

Subjects will receive two SofWave treatments, 4 weeks apart, applied to the full face and neck.

Three subjects will undergo biopsies at baseline (2 weeks before first treatment) and at Week 26 (20 weeks after the second treatment).

Biopsy subjects will attend additional visits, including telehealth follow-ups to monitor healing.

Non-biopsy subjects will attend 3 in-person visits (Baseline, Week 4, Week 24). Final follow-up occurs approximately 24-26 weeks after the first treatment.

Control Group:

Subjects will not receive SofWave during the study period. Non-biopsy subjects will attend 3 in-person visits (Baseline, Week 4, Week 24). Three subjects will undergo biopsies at Week 0 and Week 24, with additional telehealth follow-ups.
