Onda Lifting Cycle: When Do the Results Start to Appear? image 1

Hello.

This is Kim Jang-ju from Beautys Doctors.

When you start looking into lifting procedures, the names you usually come across first are Ulthera or Thermage.

But these days, more and more people are choosing Onda Lifting as a way to improve facial contours gently, without the burden of a recovery period.

In particular, when there is both reduced elasticity and fat accumulation, such as in face-line refinement, cheek fat, or under-chin fat, it is true that existing devices could feel somewhat lacking.

So how does Onda Lifting work, and who is it really best suited for?

1. What kind of procedure is it?

What kind of energy is used to improve the skin?

Ulthera and Shurink use ultrasound (HIFU), while Thermage uses radiofrequency (RF).

Onda Lifting is differentiated from these by being a lifting device that applies microwave energy.

This energy penetrates deeper than conventional radiofrequency methods, reaching from the lower dermis to the subcutaneous fat layer, and helps induce both collagen synthesis and fat reduction.

There are two handpiece types: 3mm and 7mm.

😺 3mm

Promotes collagen production

😺 7mm

Reduces fat cells and improves contours

Thanks to this dual action, Onda Lifting stands out for improving skin texture and elasticity while also smoothing facial lines.

2. When do the results appear?

Do you see a difference right away after treatment?

The effects of Onda Lifting can be felt in facial contour changes from the day of the procedure.

In particular, when heat energy is delivered to the subcutaneous fat layer using the 7mm handpiece,

you can immediately see the cheek fat or under-chin line becoming more gently defined.

However, the true effects of Onda Lifting become more noticeable 2 to 3 months after the procedure,

as new collagen is formed and skin density increases.

Because fat reduction and elasticity recovery happen at the same time, you can expect not just simple lifting, but an overall improvement in skin condition.

3. How much does it hurt?

The pain from Onda Lifting is relatively very low.

Because the energy does not stimulate the skin surface and works selectively on deeper layers,

it is a comfortable procedure that many people can tolerate without anesthesia.

4. Is there really no downtime?

Onda is a procedure that allows you to return to daily life without worrying about recovery time.

Because there is almost no skin irritation, washing your face, applying makeup, and going out are all possible immediately after the procedure.

It also has the advantage that even people with sensitive skin can receive it without worrying about swelling or redness.

In most cases, patients return to their daily routines the same day.

5. Which areas of the face are treated most often?

It is especially effective in areas of the face where decreased elasticity and residual fat are mixed together.

😺 Double chin

Contour refinement through fat breakdown

😺 Jawline

Tightening of sagging skin lines

😺 Nasolabial fold and cheek area

Restoring volume through collagen regeneration

By focusing on these areas, you can experience the effects of Onda Lifting more accurately and naturally.

6. What is the treatment cycle and how long do the results last?

The usual Onda Lifting cycle is three treatments at one-month intervals once a year.

This approach takes into account the collagen production cycle and the skin regeneration rhythm,

and is a strategy for maintaining more continuous and stable results.

Although it varies from person to person, I believe the effects last for more than a year.

In other words, rather than getting just one treatment and ending there, it is important to make lifting part of a regular routine through periodic treatments.

Many people ask about the Onda Lifting cycle, and it can vary slightly depending on individual skin condition.

But in general, following the Onda Lifting cycle mentioned above will give you the most stable results.

This is also why people who receive ongoing care tend to be especially satisfied.

If you manage it well while keeping to the Onda Lifting cycle, you can maintain the effects for longer and more clearly.

7. How much does Onda Lifting cost?

The price of Onda Lifting can vary depending on the treatment area, the number of shots, and the clinic.

For the face, it is usually priced at around 150,000 to 400,000 won per session,

and for smaller areas, lower prices may also be possible.

If you choose a 3-session package, the per-session price for Onda Lifting may be discounted, so it can be adjusted flexibly according to your budget plan.

However, since treatment standards and included items differ by clinic,

it is best to receive an exact price estimate for Onda Lifting through a consultation.

It is recommended to receive a plan optimized for your individual condition.

📌 Summary

✅ A lifting device based on microwave energy

✅ Induces collagen production + fat breakdown at the same time

✅ Results are immediate

✅ Low pain, almost no downtime

✅ The Onda Lifting cycle is recommended as three treatments at one-month intervals once a year

If you want to start lifting without too much burden, Onda Lifting, which is gentle and has a quick recovery time, can be a good starting point.

For those who want more than simple tightening and want to improve the skin from within, I believe Onda Lifting can be a sufficient answer.

Thank you for reading.
