Lifting: ONDA Lifting

Onda uses Microwave energy through Coolwaves™ technology developed by Italian company DEKA. Unlike conventional RF or HIFU, this energy passes through the skin surface to act directly on the subcutaneous fat layer and dermal layer.

RF specializes in dermal collagen stimulation, and HIFU specializes in focused energy on the SMAS layer. Onda's microwave energy delivers energy to deeper fat layers without surface skin damage, and particularly excels at simultaneously breaking down fat and improving elasticity.

Yes, Onda can be applied to both the face (double chin, cheek fat, deep cheek) and body (abdomen, thighs, upper arms). Depending on the area, the 3mm handpiece (dermal elasticity) and 7mm handpiece (fat layer dissolution) can be selected or combined.

Onda's smart cooling system cools the skin surface to reduce pain, so procedures are generally possible without anesthesia. This is one of Onda's biggest advantages. For those very sensitive to pain, numbing cream can be applied, but it is generally one of the least painful treatments.

Yes, Coolwaves™ energy selectively acts on subcutaneous fat cells to reduce fat cell size and cause some cells to die. The effect is less than surgical liposuction, but it is especially effective for localized fat reduction in areas like the double chin or marionette lines where Ultherapy may be less suitable.

Yes, it is possible. Some people receive a combination treatment of Ultherapy for SMAS layer lifting, Thermage for dermal collagen regeneration, and Onda for fat layer dissolution and elasticity improvement simultaneously. The combination and sequence are customized individually after consultation. We generally recommend the Ultherapy + Onda combination for those who find Ulthermage too much.

Fat cells killed by Onda do not regenerate, but new fat increase or skin sagging may occur due to weight changes or aging. Retreatment every 2–3 months is recommended to maintain and enhance results.

Thanks to the smart cooling system, treatment is possible without anesthesia. The sensation of warm-to-hot heat seeming to surge from within the skin is quite unique. There may be some discomfort at higher energy levels, but the doctor adjusts in real time.

Due to Onda's characteristic of no surface skin damage, it is generally possible for acne-prone skin. However, it is better to temporarily postpone treatment when active acne is severe or when there is skin inflammation. Please inform us of your skin condition during consultation for us to determine suitability.

Yes, some people periodically receive Onda for maintenance after Ultherapy or Thermage. Onda is a relatively unburdensome and comfortable procedure, making it suitable for maintenance management. Receiving it every 2–3 months is recommended.

ONDA uses microwave energy to selectively target subcutaneous fat without irritating the skin surface — great for deeper precision. InMode uses RF energy to dissolve fat while simultaneously lifting the skin. ONDA is known for minimal surface irritation and is suitable for sensitive skin; InMode combines fat reduction with stronger lifting effects.

ONDA results typically last 4~5 months depending on individual skin condition. Regular maintenance and follow-up sessions can extend results further.

Yes — ONDA causes minimal surface irritation, so most patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment. Minor swelling may occur but typically subsides quickly.

ONDA is especially recommended for those who: ① have subcutaneous fat and also want skin lifting, ② prefer zero downtime, ③ have sensitive skin prone to surface irritation, ④ are considering combination treatment with InMode or Thermage.
