Onda lifting is a non-surgical, non-invasive facial firming treatment that uses Coolwaves microwave energy to tighten skin without incisions or needles. Unlike surface-heating devices, Onda emits microwaves at 2.45 GHz that reach the deeper dermal and subcutaneous layers, warming tissue in a controlled way so the body responds by remodeling collagen. Over the following weeks, this gradual collagen rebuild helps firm the jawline, jowls, and lower face.
The treatment is delivered zone by zone with a facial handpiece, so it can be focused on a single area such as the jawline or applied more broadly across the lower face. A typical facial session takes about 20 to 40 minutes, and because the result builds gradually, most patients plan a short course of 1 to 3 sessions spaced several weeks apart rather than expecting an instant change.
At our Myeongdong (Seoul) location, Onda is consultation-led. Dr. Seung Jae Baek, Medical Director, and the clinic’s doctors assess your skin laxity and goals, then tailor the zones and session count to your face. International patients are supported in English at our Myeongdong location, a short walk from Myeongdong Station in Seoul, Korea.
Onda’s firming effect comes from its Coolwaves microwave energy, which differs from radiofrequency in how it deposits heat. The device emits microwaves at 2.45 GHz that penetrate past the surface into the deeper dermal and subcutaneous layers, where the energy is absorbed and converted to controlled heat. This targeted warming reaches tissue that surface-heating devices struggle to influence, while a cooling contact protects the skin surface. The heat prompts a natural wound-healing response: fibroblasts are stimulated to produce new type I collagen, and existing collagen contracts, so treated skin looks firmer and tighter as it remodels over roughly 8 to 12 weeks. Because the microwaves are delivered in a controlled pattern zone by zone, the doctor can concentrate energy where laxity is greatest, such as the jawline and under-chin, while keeping the treatment comfortable. This is why Onda is used as a gradual, build-up firming treatment rather than a one-time fix.

The doctor grades your skin laxity and maps the 1 to 4 zones (jawline, jowls, lower face, under-chin) that will benefit most.
The area is cleansed and a gel applied so the handpiece glides smoothly across each treatment zone during the session.
Microwaves at 2.45 GHz are delivered into the deeper layers, warming tissue in a controlled way while the surface stays protected.
A facial session usually takes about 20 to 40 minutes depending on how many zones are treated, with most patients feeling only warmth.
Over roughly 8 to 12 weeks, new collagen forms and firms the treated skin, with fuller results across a course of 1 to 3 sessions.

The clinic’s doctors assess your skin laxity and target zones, explain what Onda can and cannot do, and map how many sessions suit you, in English.
The skin is cleansed and gel applied, then a facial session runs about 20 to 40 minutes with most patients feeling comfortable warmth.
Onda is often planned as a short course of 1 to 3 sessions spaced several weeks apart so collagen can rebuild between visits.
Firming builds over roughly 8 to 12 weeks as collagen remodels, and your doctor reviews progress to fine-tune the plan.
Results last many months but are not one-time, so occasional maintenance sessions help sustain firmness as skin continues to age.
Onda lifting is a non-surgical facial firming treatment that uses Coolwaves microwave energy at 2.45 GHz to warm the deeper skin layers and stimulate collagen. Over roughly 8 to 12 weeks, this firms the jawline and lower face. You can read the full overview on our Onda lifting page.
Onda uses microwave energy at 2.45 GHz that deposits controlled heat in deeper dermal and subcutaneous layers, whereas radiofrequency heats the dermis more broadly and ultrasound targets the SMAS layer. Each reaches skin differently. Your doctor recommends the right modality, or a combination, for your specific laxity at consultation.
Onda is commonly used on the jawline, jowls, lower face, and under-chin, where microwave energy firms deeper-layer laxity. It is applied zone by zone with a facial handpiece, so the plan can be narrow or broad. See scope details on our Onda lifting page or discuss at your assessment.
Onda is generally well tolerated, with most patients feeling comfortable warmth rather than sharp pain during the roughly 20 to 40 minute session. A cooling contact protects the skin surface as energy is delivered. Your doctor adjusts settings to keep the treatment comfortable for your skin before starting.
Most facial Onda plans run 1 to 3 sessions spaced several weeks apart, since results build gradually as collagen remodels. The exact number depends on your skin laxity and response. Your doctor reviews progress between sessions and adjusts the plan so it matches how your skin is firming.
Onda usually has minimal downtime, with some patients seeing short-lived redness or warmth that settles within hours to a day. Most people return to normal activity and gentle skincare the same day. Your doctor gives simple aftercare so your skin recovers comfortably while collagen begins to remodel.
Onda firming builds gradually over roughly 8 to 12 weeks as collagen remodels, not immediately after one session. Some patients notice early tightening sooner, with fuller results maturing across a short course. Your doctor reviews progress so the plan stays matched to how your skin responds over time.
Results can hold for many months, but they are not one-time because skin continues to age naturally. Occasional maintenance sessions help sustain firmness over time. Your doctor advises on the right maintenance interval for your skin and goals during your reviews, so results stay looking their best.
Yes, Onda is often layered with deeper or surface devices to address different skin depths in one plan. For example, pairing it with Ultherapy Prime can target the SMAS layer while Onda firms deeper tissue. Your doctor designs a combined plan suited to your laxity.
Onda is generally suitable across skin tones because microwave energy targets deeper layers rather than surface pigment, so the risk of pigment change is low. Your skin type mainly guides settings for comfort and safety. Your doctor tailors the approach at consultation so it is appropriate for your skin.
Most adults with mild to moderate facial or jawline laxity who want gradual, non-surgical firming are good candidates for Onda. A consultation grades your laxity and confirms suitable zones. If laxity is advanced, your doctor may suggest options like Thermage FLX and explain this clearly upfront.
Onda side effects are usually mild and temporary, such as short-lived redness, warmth, or slight swelling that settles within hours to a day. A cooling contact protects the surface during treatment. Your doctor reviews your history at consultation and explains what to expect so any reaction is anticipated and managed.
Onda aftercare is simple: daily sunscreen, gentle skincare, and avoiding heat sources like saunas for a day or two. A supportive skin care routine helps maintain firmness between sessions. Your doctor gives specifics for your treated zones so your skin recovers well as collagen remodels.
Onda lifting is performed at our Myeongdong (Seoul) location at 5, Myeongdong 10-gil, Jung-gu, a short walk from Myeongdong Station, with Dr. Seung Jae Baek, Medical Director, and the clinic’s doctors. English-speaking staff support international patients from consultation through their course of Onda in Seoul, Korea.
For a first Onda session, 1 to 2 days in Seoul is usually comfortable, covering a consultation, the treatment, and a short review. Because Onda often runs as a short course, many international patients begin at our Myeongdong location and continue on return trips, with our English-speaking team helping coordinate timing.
Yes, flying within a day or so is generally fine, since Onda is non-invasive with minimal downtime. Cabin air is drying, so moisturise and use sunscreen on treated skin. Your doctor confirms aftercare for your zones before you travel so your comfort and developing result are protected on the way home.
International patients can complete an Onda course across one or more visits, and our Myeongdong team offers remote check-ins in English between trips so your plan stays on track. You can continue a supportive skin care routine at home, and your treatment notes are kept on file for continuity.
