Instant Contouring

Onda Lifting

What is Onda Lifting?

Onda Lifting is a contouring treatment that uses Coolwaves™ microwave technology to act selectively on fat cells beneath the skin and contract the tissue. It is applied to areas where facial fullness builds up, such as the jawline, cheek line and double chin, and the energy distribution for each area is designed through 3D contour analysis.

Method
Coolwaves™ microwave energy
Acts on
Fat cells beneath the skin · dermal collagen
Areas treated
Jawline, cheek line and double chin; cheek fullness and the area below the cheekbones
Steps
3D contour analysis → energy level and number of shots set for each area → balance design
Recommended sessions
3–4 sessions at intervals of 2–4 weeks, adjusted according to the area and the goal
After the treatment
Temporary redness or mild swelling may occur, and it usually subsides within 1–2 days
Follow-up
Collagen regeneration continues over the 4–12 weeks after the treatment
Maintenance
The line is refined as sessions accumulate. Improvement in fat tends to last relatively long, but it varies with aftercare and lifestyle habits, and the effect can be reduced if you gain weight
Timing
Two to four weeks before a wedding or an event is the ideal time
Please note
Changes to fat cells are irreversible, so designing the amount of treatment matters

The above summarizes the information set out on this page. Whether it applies and how it proceeds depend on facial fat distribution and skin condition, so please ask at a medical consultation for details.

Precise Contour Design by a Dermatologist

In facial contour refinement, the doctor’s aesthetic sense and anatomical understanding determine the result. The Other Dermatology carefully analyzes facial bone structure and fat distribution to design a natural-looking contour.

Prevention of Overtreatment

Because fat cell destruction is irreversible, excessive treatment can create unnatural results. The Other preserves natural-looking results by delivering only the appropriate amount of energy to the areas that truly need it.

Combination Design with a Full Lifting Device Lineup

Onda Lifting is effective on its own, but when combined with Ultherapy or Thermage, it can produce more multidimensional results. The Other designs the optimal combination according to each patient’s goals.

Structured Aftercare

A structured aftercare system, including follow-up observation and additional care, helps maintain optimal results.

Can I see results immediately after the treatment?

Yes. One of the biggest advantages of Onda Lifting is its immediate effect. You may notice volume refinement and contour improvement right after the treatment, and the effect can become stronger as collagen regeneration continues over the next 4–12 weeks.

When is the best time to receive it before a wedding?

Two to four weeks before the wedding is ideal. In addition to immediate contour improvement, this timing allows collagen regeneration to become more active around the wedding day, helping achieve the best possible result.

Is there pain or downtime?

You may feel some warmth during the treatment, but it is generally tolerable. Temporary redness or mild swelling may occur after the treatment, but it usually subsides naturally within 1–2 days and does not interfere with daily life.

Will reducing fat make my face look unnatural later?

This is why precise design by the doctor is essential. The Other Dermatology considers the overall balance of the face and treats only the necessary areas without excessive volume reduction. Our principle is to refine unnecessary fullness while preserving a natural contour.

How many sessions are needed, and how long does it last?

Usually 3–4 sessions at intervals of 2–4 weeks are recommended, and the number is adjusted according to the area and the goal. The line is refined as the sessions accumulate. Improvement in fat tends to last relatively long, but it varies with aftercare and lifestyle habits, and the effect can be reduced if you gain weight.

How is it different from Ultherapy and Thermage?

The energy and the layer it acts on are different. Onda Lifting acts on fat cells beneath the skin and on dermal collagen with Coolwaves™ microwave energy. Ultherapy Prime acts with ultrasound on the SMAS fascia layer (4.5mm) and the dermal layers (3.0 and 1.5mm), and Thermage FLX acts with radiofrequency (RF) on collagen in the dermal layer. Because the mechanisms differ, they are sometimes planned together; which combination suits you is decided at a medical consultation.
