Onda Lifting: Effects, Pain & Who It’s Best For

2026-02-12

Onda Lifting is a non-surgical facial tightening treatment designed to improve skin firmness and contour with minimal downtime. 

It is increasingly popular among patients looking for natural-looking lifting results without surgery.





What Is Onda Lifting?

Onda Lifting uses microwave-based radiofrequency energy to deliver controlled heat to the deeper layers of the skin, 
including the dermis and the SMAS layer.

The thermal effect stimulates collagen remodeling and helps improve skin tightness and facial definition over time.



 
What Is Microwave-Based Radiofrequency?
Compared to conventional radiofrequency devices, Onda uses a higher-frequency energy that allows more focused and 
controlled heating in specific tissue depths.
It works in a similar concept to microwave heat generation but in a medically controlled and targeted manner. 




Key Effects of Onda Lifting
• Targets dermis and SMAS layers
• Stimulates collagen remodeling
• Helps improve skin firmness
• Supports gradual contour refinement
• Minimal downtime compared to surgery




 


Onda vs. InMode
Both Onda and InMode are radiofrequency-based lifting treatments. However, they differ in depth control and energy delivery.
InMode primarily affects superficial fat layers and may require multiple sessions for visible contour changes.
Onda uses different handpieces (3mm and 7mm) to adjust treatment depth depending on facial thickness and fat distribution.


Onda vs. Ultherapy
Ultherapy uses focused ultrasound energy, while Onda uses microwave-based radiofrequency.
The mechanism and tissue interaction differ, so treatment choice depends on individual anatomy and goals.






Pain Level: Is Onda Lifting Painful?
Most patients describe the sensation as tolerable, with warmth or mild heat during the procedure.
Discomfort varies depending on individual sensitivity and treatment area.






Who Is a Good Candidate?
Onda Lifting may be suitable for:

• Mild to moderate skin laxity
• Jawline definition concerns
• Lower face fullness
• Patients seeking non-surgical lifting
• Individuals wanting minimal downtime
