“Is Onda Lifting a procedure only for the face?”

When people think of lifting procedures, most first think of “facial lifting.”

They usually focus on areas like the jawline, nasolabial folds, and cheeks.

But Onda Lifting can also be applied to body areas.

More and more people are getting it for the upper arms, abdomen, thighs, and even above the knees for the purpose of improving skin elasticity and refining body fat.

So then, is Onda Lifting

more suitable for the face or the body?

If it can be used for both,

what differences are there in the procedure?

Today, I’ll explain Onda Lifting step by step, from how it works to the differences in effects by area.

Onda Lifting Principles

Onda Lifting is a noninvasive lifting procedure that uses 2.45GHz microwave energy.

This energy selectively stimulates only the areas of the skin that contain moisture and fat.

In other words, it is structured to selectively “warm” only the dermis and subcutaneous fat layer while leaving the surface unchanged.

Thanks to this principle, there is almost no epidermal damage or pain, while collagen regeneration and fat contraction occur simultaneously in the deeper layers.

Onda Lifting comes with 3mm and 7mm handpieces, allowing customized stimulation by depth.

Because of this, the 3mm handpiece is mainly used for the thinner face, while the 7mm handpiece is used for lifting thicker body areas.

Facial Lifting

The most representative area for Onda Lifting is the face.

It is mainly performed on areas where sagging begins, such as the cheeks, jawline, nasolabial folds, under the cheekbones, and double chin.

Because Onda stimulates both the dermis and subcutaneous fat layer at the same time, it improves skin elasticity and refines facial contours together.

For example,

if the cheeks are sagging, it contracts fat cells and rearranges collagen to help restore firmness,

and if the jawline is blurry, it reduces the density of the subcutaneous fat layer to make the contour look more defined.

For those concerned about the nasolabial area, it can help soften wrinkles by improving dermal elasticity.

In addition, Onda has an internal cooling system, so there is almost no surface heat or pain, and another advantage is its quick recovery, allowing makeup and face washing right after the procedure.

After the procedure,

“my face feels lighter”

“my cheeks feel more refined”

“my jawline looks more defined”

such reviews are common.

Body Lifting

One reason Onda Lifting is getting as much attention as facial treatments is that it can also be applied to the body.

In particular, it can be used on upper arms (loose skin, small amounts of remaining fat), the abdomen and flanks (when weight has decreased but firmness is lacking), and thighs and above the knees (loose skin texture, uneven fat layers).

When Onda Lifting is performed on these areas, it contracts the fat layer under the skin evenly and regenerates collagen in the dermis to help restore firmness.

Conventional RF devices had limitations for body procedures because heat reached only shallowly or there was a risk of epidermal burns, but Onda can be performed more safely even on thicker skin areas thanks to its cooling and depth-control features.

In summary, Hongdae Onda Lifting is a lifting device that can be used on both the face and body. However, the purpose and effects differ slightly by area.

Although Onda Lifting can be applied to many areas, what ultimately matters is whether the settings are adjusted to match your skin thickness and fat distribution, whether it is for the face or the body.

So please be sure to check whether the clinic performs the procedure according to your skin’s needs.
