ONDA lifting in Gangnam, Seoul
Coolwaves microwave energy that reduces fat under the skin and tightens it at the same time — slimming a fuller jawline and double chin with no needles and no downtime.
What is ONDA lifting?
ONDA lifting is a non-invasive contouring treatment that uses Coolwaves microwave technology to heat the subcutaneous fat layer, reducing fat cells while stimulating collagen to tighten the overlying skin. Built-in surface cooling protects the skin, so it can slim a full jawline, jowls and double chin — or body areas — without needles or downtime. Change builds over 6–8 weeks as treated fat is cleared and collagen remodels.
It is especially useful for faces that are heavy rather than thin, where ultrasound or filler alone would not reduce fullness.

ONDA lifting questions we hear most
Can’t find your answer? Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp.
Does ONDA hurt?
Most patients feel deep warmth with the surface cooled, and no numbing is usually needed. Energy is adjusted to your comfort.
How many ONDA sessions do I need?
Some notice change after one session; more pronounced slimming often needs 2–3 sessions spaced a few weeks apart.
Is ONDA suitable for a thin face?
Usually not on its own, as reducing fat in a thin face can look hollow. Your doctor may suggest Ultherapy or volume restoration instead.
Can ONDA be done on the body?
Yes. ONDA also treats the abdomen, arms and thighs for fat, cellulite and laxity. See body contouring.
Can I combine ONDA with Ultherapy?
Yes. ONDA slims fullness while Ultherapy lifts the SMAS; they are often done on the same day.
How many ONDA body lifting sessions do I need?
Most body areas take 20–40 minutes per session. Some change is visible after one session, but noticeable contouring usually needs 2–3 sessions a few weeks apart, with results building over 6–8 weeks.
