If your double chin is bugging you, look into ONDA. HIFU just lifts, but ONDA also melts the fat under your chin — your jawline comes out way cleaner. One session is a bit subtle though; you need about 3 to really see 'whoa, that's different.' Pain is barely there, you can even skip numbing cream. During consultation, ask whether your double chin is from fat or sagging and get the settings customized for you.
How it works
Just like a microwave vibrates water molecules in food to generate heat, ONDA uses microwave energy (ultra-high frequency) to target fat cells and collagen beneath your skin. It melts fat and contracts collagen simultaneously — so you get lifting AND fat reduction in one treatment.
Types
Concentrates microwave energy at a shallow 3mm depth targeting the upper dermis. Provides immediate collagen contraction for a tightening effect and stimulates long-term collagen synthesis.
Delivers microwave energy to a 7mm depth, targeting the subcutaneous fat layer. Induces fat cell destruction and deep collagen regeneration simultaneously.
Doctor skill dependency
3/5Pain level
2/5A warm, slightly tingly sensation. The surface cooling makes it less uncomfortable than expected. Nothing like the bone-hitting pain of HIFU — more like a warm stone massage with an occasional poke. Many people say they're fine without numbing cream.
Not recommended for
People with cardiac pacemakers (microwaves can interfere with electronic devices) Metal implants in the treatment area (metal absorbs excessive heat — burn risk) Pregnant or breastfeeding Active skin conditions in the treatment area (herpes, severe acne)
Procedure
Gel is applied to the treatment area → the handpiece is placed on the skin and slid across while delivering microwaves → the surface stays cool while the inside warms up → multiple passes per zone → full face takes about 30 minutes. Some clinics use numbing cream, some don't.
