SoftWave has a flexible applicator membrane, allowing for more effective treatment because it penetrates wider and deeper. Energy can conform to body surface instead of dissolving in air. Stemwave’s hard opaque applicator head cannot contour around the body. SoftWave has a flexible clear membrane which allows the provider to see gas bubbles.
SoftWave is not only FDA-inspected but also has multiple clearances, while Modus-F (Stemwave) lacks FDA inspection. Numerous FDA-registered firms fail inspections yearly, leaving clients without access to parts or support. Remember, in the U.S., legal sale of medical devices requires FDA approval, assuring product safety and efficacy.
Fast and easy service with 24-hour turnaround if needed. The applicator refurbishment and inspection process ensures you have no downtime. Modus-F’s size and shipping constraints require an expensive and time-consuming field service organization or customer repair site.
SoftWave’s certified trainers provide on-site training, eliminating disruptions to your everyday operations. Our training days double as real patient sessions, turning education into a revenue-generating opportunity for your practice. In addition, we save your clinic time and resources by eliminating the need for off-site travel and accommodation.
SoftWave’s patented parabolic reflector produces a deeper and wider column of acoustic energy utilizing the physics of having a primary and secondary wave of energy for better outcomes.
Modus-F uses focused technology and may cause microtrauma at high levels.
SoftWave has decades of use in the U.S. It is endorsed and utilized by eminent Key Opinion Leaders in the fields of orthopedics, wound care, urology, and more, as well as from national sports teams and leading academic institutions such as Harvard, UCLA, Cleveland Clinic, etc.

SoftWave uses a continuous loop water system fed by a contained water cartridge. This ensures the proper water filtration as each spark produces a gas.
SoftWave has a specialized service department with highly trained nationally certified technicians.
SoftWave’s applicator is both lighter and ergonomically designed for comfort. In times of staffing challenges and training costs, SoftWave prioritizes ease of use to retain and support your invaluable team.
SoftWave’s energy, delivered through a parabolic reflector, penetrates wide and deep, ensuring patient comfort and efficacy with fewer pulses.
SoftWave can sit on a tabletop and easily integrate into your space.
Stemwave Modus-F does not have a water filtration system which means the technician must manually fill the water in the applicator head and manually eliminate the air bubbles as they happen. This happens during treatments which interrupts care and add time for everyone.
With the Modus-F, the responsibility is on the user to change their own electrodes – mixing electricity and water. Because of this, the Modus-F applicator rusts after a short period of time. This compromises aesthetics and sterility, vital in a healthcare setting.
The Modus-F applicator is heavier and more cumbersome which is added stress to the user.
Modus-F’s focused energy delivery can cause more discomfort and potentially less successful tissue targeting due to its converging point of release.
Modus-F is one unit measuring 3 feet high.
