Hello! This is Seye Clinic, embracing all the beauty in the world.
As time passes, many struggle with decreased elasticity, resulting in a deeper double chin or sagging cheeks. When considering treatments to address these issues, you may discover Onda Lifting and, simultaneously, wonder about the ideal Onda Lifting frequency, pain level, and proper aftercare.
In this article, we will thoroughly explain the principle of Onda Lifting, how to set the appropriate Onda Lifting frequency (or cycle), the typical pain level, and essential post-treatment care.
Onda Lifting is a treatment that utilizes Microwave (Coolwaves™) energy to deliver heat deep into the dermal layer without causing damage to the epidermis (skin surface).
The appropriate Onda Lifting frequency varies significantly based on individual skin thickness, elasticity, and sensitivity. Since a one-size-fits-all approach does not work, a plan tailored to your skin is essential.
Skin Type | Recommended Onda Lifting Frequency | Key Considerations |
Thin/Sensitive | 6 Months to 1 Year | Recommended lower energy (Joule count) to minimize irritation; longer intervals are needed. |
Normal Skin | Approximately 6 Months | Standard energy (Joule count) is often effective; meticulous moisturizing post-treatment is important. |
Thick/Severe Laxity | 3 to 6 Months | Higher energy (Joule count) may be considered for greater intensity; essential to use UV protection. |
Generally, the thinner the skin, the wider the interval is set to reduce irritation, and if laxity is severe, the Onda Lifting frequency may be shortened for intensive management.
In Onda Lifting, the 'Joule count' (or shot count) refers to the number of times energy is delivered. A higher Joule count means energy is delivered over a wider area, potentially increasing the intensity of the expected effect. The Joule count is customized based on the treatment area and the desired outcome.
Joule Count (Example) | Primary Target Area | Expected Effect |
60,000 Joules | Jawline, Double Chin, Eye Area | Localized contour definition and focused elasticity improvement. |
80,000 Joules | Nasolabial Folds, Cheeks | Moderate lifting and mid-face elasticity reinforcement. |
100,000 Joules | Full Face & Neck (Jawline, Cheeks, Forehead) | Comprehensive skin tightening and overall structural improvement. |
A higher Joule count like 100,000 may be planned for overall elasticity improvement, while 60,000 Joules is typically used for localized definition.
One of the major advantages of Onda Lifting is the relatively low level of pain.
Temporary swelling or redness may occur but subsides within a few days. Aftercare is just as vital as maintaining the correct Onda Lifting frequency:
Depending on the area and Joule count, Onda Lifting typically takes between 15 and 30 minutes, making it a relatively quick procedure.
The cycle is set between 3 months and 1 year, depending on individual skin condition and laxity. It is crucial to schedule a precise consultation with a medical professional to establish the most suitable, customized Onda Lifting frequency.
The effects are often maximized within 1–2 weeks post-treatment and generally last between 6 months and 1 year. (Maintenance duration can vary based on lifestyle and skin condition.)
Patient feedback highlights high satisfaction with the speed and naturalness of the changes:
"I was surprised to see a V-line in the mirror right after the procedure! The results were fast."
"My skin is sensitive, but recovery was quick, and my line improved naturally."
Onda Lifting is an excellent option for those seeking fast and natural contour definition, or those who want overall facial elasticity improvement.
In summary, the core of Onda Lifting lies in setting the appropriate frequency and Joule count according to individual skin thickness, elasticity, and desired range of improvement. Since the results and duration depend on the treatment plan, it is vital to consult with an experienced medical team at Seye Clinic to accurately diagnose your condition and establish a customized plan.
