Myeongdong ONDA Lifting: How Microwave Lifting Works & What to Know Before Treatment
Director of Lijin Clinic in Myeongdong, Seoul.
In clinic,
many patients searching for
lifting treatments in Myeongdong
come in with concerns like:
“My face looks heavier than before”
“My jawline has become less defined”
For these concerns,
we often recommend ONDA lifting,
a non-invasive microwave-based lifting treatment
that targets both skin laxity and facial contour.
Today, I’ll explain:
✔ how ONDA lifting works
✔ what makes it different from RF lifting
✔ what to consider before treatment
"The Principles of ONDA Lifting"
1. What Is ONDA Lifting? (Microwave Lifting Technology)
ONDA lifting is
a microwave-based skin tightening treatment
that delivers energy into the deeper layers of the skin.
Unlike traditional RF lifting treatments,
ONDA penetrates deeper, targeting:
✔️ the dermis (collagen layer)
✔️ the subcutaneous fat layer
This is made possible
through Coolwaves™ technology,
which allows selective energy delivery
while minimizing damage to surrounding tissues.
2. ONDA vs RF Lifting: What’s the Difference?
The key difference lies in depth and selectivity:
RF lifting
→ primarily targets the dermis
→ focuses on skin tightening
ONDA lifting (microwave)
→ reaches both dermis and fat layer
→ improves firmness + reduces localized fat
Because of this,
ONDA is not just about tightening—
it also helps with facial contouring and jawline definition.
3. How ONDA Improves Skin & Contour
Before (left) and after (right):
the epidermis (dark pink) remains unchanged, while collagen activity is stimulated within the dermis
ONDA works through two main mechanisms:
In the dermis
→ stimulates collagen production
→ improves skin elasticity and texture
In the fat layer
→ reduces excess fat gradually
→ refines facial contours
This dual effect makes ONDA a popular option for patients looking for:
✔️ non-surgical face slimming
✔️ jawline contouring in Myeongdong
✔️ lifting without downtime
Results develop gradually over 2–3 months,
as collagen remodeling and fat reduction take place.
4. 3mm vs 7mm Handpiece: Why It Matters
Choosing the correct depth is essential because:
✔️ facial areas vary in skin thickness
✔️ fat distribution differs across regions
✔️ treatment goals are highly individual
A customized approach helps achieve
natural-looking, balanced results.
5. Who Is a Good Candidate for ONDA Lifting?
ONDA is commonly recommended for patients who
✔️ notice facial heaviness or mild sagging
✔️ want jawline definition without surgery
✔️ are looking for non-invasive lifting in Seoul
✔️ have localized facial fat (lower face, chin area)
"What to Consider Before ONDA treatment"
Although ONDA is a relatively gentle treatment,
there are important factors to consider.
1) Facial Balance Matters
Each area of the face serves a different purpose:
✔️ some areas require volume preservation
✔️ others benefit from fat reduction
Treating all areas the same can lead to
unnatural volume changes.
2) Energy Control Is Key
Since ONDA uses heat energy:
✔️ excessive energy in one area should be avoided
✔️ proper movement speed and technique are essential
3) Treatment Timing
If you’ve recently had
skin boosters (Rejuran, Juvelook, etc.)
or regenerative treatments,
we recommend waiting
at least 2 weeks before ONDA.
4) Possible Temporary Reactions
Depending on your skin condition,
you may experience
mild warmth or temporary sensitivity.
These are usually short-lived.
At our clinic, we focus on
enhancing natural balance rather than creating excessive change.
If you’re searching for
ONDA lifting in Myeongdong or Seoul,
I recommend a personalized consultation
to determine the most suitable approach for your face.
