Hello
Creating healthy beauty together
This is Timeless Mapo Main Clinic
“I’m scared it might hurt a lot”
“I’m worried that bruising or swelling
will interfere with my daily life”
When we talk with many people in the consultation room,
we often find that many hesitate to undergo the procedure itself because of pain or recovery time
Even the moment you lie down after applying numbing cream feels nerve-racking,
and when you think about the stinging pain you’ll feel throughout the procedure...it takes a lot of courage to start, haha
So for those who hesitate because of this burden, the treatment we explain as an alternative is “Onda lifting.”
Today, I’ll clearly explain everything from how Onda lifting works to its effects, and even the treatment combinations that create synergy when used together
Please focus for just 3 minutes:)
1. What is the principle behind Onda lifting?
When you think of lifting devices, you usually think of ultrasound (Ulthera) or radiofrequency (Thermage), right?
Onda uses a slightly different method called “microwave.”
To put it in an easy analogy, you can think of it as similar to the principle of the microwave oven we use every day.
Just as a microwave vibrates the water molecules in food to warm it from the inside,
Onda also vibrates the water molecules in the skin to create heat step by step from within.
Rather than applying strong stimulation directly to the skin surface, it delivers heat from the inside,
and the device itself also has a powerful cooling function that works together.
Thanks to this, it has the advantage of significantly reducing the heat or pain felt during treatment.
The heat delivered into the skin performs two helpful roles.
Refining the unnecessary fat layer (contouring the facial line)
Stimulating collagen production (for firmer elasticity)
Of course, because skin thickness and sensitivity to pain vary from person to person, the degree of stimulation felt can differ somewhat!
2. Customized treatment using two tips (3 mm / 7 mm)
One of the major advantages of Onda lifting is
that it can be performed precisely according to skin depth using two handpieces, 3 mm and 7 mm.
1) 3 mm tip (targeting the dermis)
By delivering energy to relatively shallow layers, it promotes collagen regeneration and improves skin elasticity and texture.
2) 7 mm tip (targeting the fat layer)
It penetrates deep into the fat layer of the skin, stimulating unnecessary fat cells and helping refine volume.
For example, if you have little cheek volume and thin skin, we would focus on the 3 mm tip to improve firmness.
Conversely, if your skin is thick or you have a bit of fat on your facial line, we would use the 7 mm tip to refine the contour.
In the end, the key to Onda technology is
how carefully these two handpieces are allocated and designed according to the patient’s facial condition.
3. Can it be done together with other treatments?
Yes, of course^^
Onda is highly satisfying on its own, but
when combined with other treatments tailored to your skin condition and concerns, the synergy can be even greater.
Onda + Thermage combination
For those with thin skin and overall reduced elasticity, Thermage is a really good choice.
However, Thermage alone may feel a little lacking when it comes to refining specific areas such as around the mouth, nasolabial folds, or double chin.
In such cases, Thermage tightens overall skin elasticity,
and Onda smoothly refines the less-satisfactory contour lines for a very polished result.
Onda + Ulthera combination
Ulthera is a representative treatment that tightens the deep SMAS layer of the skin, but
if the face has a bit more fat or feels heavy, there may be limits to reducing volume with Ulthera alone.
In that case, if you first refine the fat layer with Onda (7 mm)
and then use Ulthera to lift the deep SMAS layer tightly, you can create a much lighter and slimmer line^^
We’ve looked at the principles and effects of Onda lifting—was that helpful?^^
If this is your first lifting procedure,
or if you’ve had a hard time because of pain in the past, Onda is truly a welcome alternative.
However, no matter how gentle or excellent the device is,
the details of the result can vary greatly depending on “who performs the treatment with care tailored to my face.”
That is exactly why our Timeless Mapo Main Clinic insists on “1:1 direct consultation between each patient and the medical staff.”
It doesn’t have to be our clinic
But if you are considering lifting,
we recommend that you first have 충분한 consultation with a board-certified dermatologist before the procedure and choose the treatment that truly suits you^^
Thank you for reading such a long post today
For results you can be satisfied with over time,
we will continue with only the treatments that are truly needed
