How this treatment works
Why it works
Energy directed at the fat layer
The microwave energy is designed to concentrate in the subcutaneous fat layer.
Surface Cooling
A cooling system is used at the skin surface for comfort and temperature control. It does not remove risk or guarantee a comfortable session.
Dual-Layer
The manufacturer's published treatment depths are approximately 3 mm at the dermis and 7 mm at the fat layer.
Further treatment details
What Is Onda?
Onda is a contouring device for the body and face that uses microwave energy, which the manufacturer brands COOLWAVES.
Radiofrequency and ultrasound devices work differently. Onda's microwaves are designed to be absorbed mainly in the fat layer under the skin, while also warming the dermis above it. The intent is to work on localized fat and on skin firmness in the same session.
That is the design intent, not a promise. How much fat or laxity changes in your area varies, and the physician assesses that in person.
Where the energy is aimed
| Target Layer | Approx. Depth | Intended action |
|---|---|---|
| Dermis | ~3 mm | Warming intended to stimulate collagen |
| Subcutaneous fat | ~7 mm | Aimed at cellulite and localized fat |
What the physician checks
The area
Where the fat sits, how thick it is and how loose the skin is. These decide whether Onda makes sense and how much energy to plan.
Your goal
Onda is used for contour in a defined area. It is not a weight-loss treatment.
Your medical history
A pacemaker, metal implants in the area, pregnancy or breastfeeding, and inflamed skin all need to be raised before treatment.
What Onda is used for
Localized fat
Cellulite
Loose skin
Contour of the face or body
Individual results vary.
In the treatment room
Energy
The handpiece moves over the area while microwave energy is delivered. You feel warmth, and some areas feel more than others.
Surface Cooling
A cooling system runs at the skin surface for comfort and temperature control. It does not make the session painless.
Afterwards
Redness, warmth, tenderness or mild swelling can follow. How long they last varies.

Treatment FAQ
How is Onda different from other lifting devices?
Onda uses microwave energy, branded COOLWAVES, rather than radiofrequency or ultrasound. The manufacturer's design intent is to concentrate energy in the fat under the skin while also warming the dermis, so one session can be aimed at localized fat, cellulite and skin laxity. Whether that suits your area, and how much changes, is assessed in person and varies by individual.
Which concerns does Onda treat?
On the body it is used for pockets of localized fat, cellulite and loss of firmness. On the face it is used for contour and skin laxity. The physician confirms which areas are suitable after examining you in person, and tells you if your concern needs a different approach.
Is the treatment painful, and is there downtime?
Expect warmth and some discomfort as the energy is delivered. A built-in cooling system is used at the skin surface, but it does not make the session painless. Temporary redness, warmth, tenderness or mild swelling can occur, and visible recovery varies by individual and treated area.
What do the joule amounts in the prices mean?
Onda is priced by the total energy delivered, measured in joules (J). The listed options are 60,000J, 80,000J and 100,000J, and 200,000J for the body. The physician recommends an amount based on the size of the area and what you want to change.
Is Onda a weight-loss treatment?
No. It is used on localized fat and loose skin in a defined area, and it does not change your body weight. If your goal is weight loss, the physician will tell you so at consultation.
