Lifting & Tightening
ONDA Lifting in Seoul

QUICK ANSWER

ONDA uses Coolwaves microwave energy to target fat and firm the skin, making it useful for a full double chin, heavy jowls and lower-face contour. Each session takes 20–40 minutes with little downtime; mild swelling can last a few days. Most patients need 1–3 sessions spaced about 4 weeks apart.

How it works

ONDA's 2.45 GHz microwaves pass through a cooled skin surface and heat the fatty layer, while also stimulating collagen in the dermis. Treated fat cells are cleared by the body over the following weeks.

  • Lower-face heaviness that makes the face look wider
  • Patients who want contouring without injections or surgery

Frequently asked questions

Does ONDA reduce a double chin?

Yes, when the fullness is mainly fat. Dr. Yang checks whether skin laxity or bone structure is the main cause first.

How is ONDA different from Ultherapy?

ONDA reduces fat and firms skin; Ultherapy lifts the deeper SMAS layer. They are often paired.
