Onda Lifting Before & After Real Coolwaves Results at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport Korea
Explore documented Onda Coolwaves lifting results from RE:BERRY Clinic near Incheon Airport. Onda by DEKA (Italy) is the world’s first microwave-based aesthetic device, using patented Coolwaves technology at 2.45 GHz to selectively target the dermal-hypodermal junction for lifting and localized adipose tissue for body contouring. All before-and-after photographs follow standardized clinical documentation protocols with consistent lighting and positioning.
What Do Onda Lifting Results Actually Look Like?
Onda Coolwaves by DEKA produces measurable face lifting, skin tightening, and body contouring through a fundamentally different mechanism than ultrasound (Ultherapy) or radiofrequency (Thermage). Onda’s patented 2.45 GHz microwave energy selectively heats the dermal-hypodermal junction at 50-55°C, triggering collagen contraction and neocollagenesis without damaging the epidermis. The before-and-after photos below document genuine lifting of the jawline, mid-face, and neck, plus body contouring results from submental, abdominal, and thigh treatments — all achieved at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport.
Microwave energy at 2.45 GHz has a unique property that makes Onda fundamentally different from RF and ultrasound devices: it is selectively absorbed by water molecules in the dermis and subcutaneous fat, bypassing the epidermis almost entirely. This means Onda can deliver therapeutic heating to the deep tissue layers responsible for lifting and contouring while keeping the skin surface cool and undamaged — resulting in minimal downtime and no surface injury. Fraterrigo et al. (2020) in Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (DOI: 10.1007/s00266-019-01460-3) demonstrated that Coolwaves microwave treatment produced a 24% reduction in subcutaneous fat thickness and significant skin tightening at 3-month follow-up. At RE:BERRY Incheon Airport, Dr. Cho Sung-Jun is a DEKA-certified Onda specialist who combines it with Sofwave, Revinas, and other lifting modalities for multi-layer rejuvenation. Our standard Onda session delivers 100kJ of Coolwaves energy — targeting the full face and neck or specific body areas. The before-and-after photos represent results from 1-3 sessions, with peak improvement visible at 3-6 months post-treatment.

How Onda Lifting Works at RE:BERRY Incheon Airport
A systematic four-step protocol for delivering precision Coolwaves microwave energy for optimal lifting and contouring.
Facial Laxity Assessment & Photography
Dr. Cho evaluates skin laxity, fat distribution, and structural support using manual assessment and visual grading. Standardized multi-angle photography documents baseline conditions. Target areas are mapped — jawline, submental region, mid-face, or body zones — based on where Onda’s Coolwaves will produce the most visible improvement.
Coolwaves Handpiece Selection
Onda features three specialized handpieces: SHALLOW (epidermis/dermis for skin quality), DEEP (dermis/subcutaneous junction for tightening and lifting), and DEEPER (subcutaneous fat for contouring). Dr. Cho selects the appropriate handpiece based on your assessment. Most facial lifting protocols use DEEP at 100kJ total energy.
Microwave Energy Delivery
Coolwaves energy is delivered in a stamping motion across the treatment area. The integrated cooling system protects the epidermis while microwave energy at 2.45 GHz selectively heats the target tissue layer. Patients feel a warm, deep sensation. Each full-face session delivers approximately 100kJ of energy over 30-40 minutes.
Post-Treatment & Follow-Up Documentation
Mild warmth and slight redness resolve within hours. Post-treatment photos taken for comparison. No activity restrictions — patients can fly the same day. Follow-up photography at 1, 3, and 6 months documents progressive collagen remodeling and lifting improvement.
When Will You See Onda Lifting Results?
- Selective Microwave Technology: Onda’s 2.45 GHz Coolwaves bypass the epidermis entirely, heating only the dermal-hypodermal junction. This selectivity means no surface burns, no downtime, and predictable deep tissue effects — visible in our consistent B&A outcomes.
- Dual Action — Lifting + Contouring: Onda simultaneously tightens skin through collagen contraction and reduces localized fat through adipocyte apoptosis. The B&A gallery shows both effects: sharper jawline (lifting) and reduced double chin (contouring).
- Comfortable Treatment: Integrated Peltier cooling keeps the skin surface at 10-12°C while deep tissue reaches 50-55°C. Patients describe a warm, tolerable sensation (2-3/10 discomfort) with no anesthesia required.
- Zero Downtime: No redness, swelling, or bruising in most cases. Ideal for transit patients at Incheon Airport who need to fly the same day. Mild warmth resolves within 1-2 hours.
- Combinable with Other Lifting: Our most dramatic B&A cases combine Onda with Revinas radiofrequency (Double Energy Lifting) or Sofwave ultrasound for multi-layer treatment targeting different tissue depths simultaneously.
- Clinically Validated: Fraterrigo et al. (2020) documented 24% fat reduction and significant skin tightening at 3 months, consistent with the improvements shown in our B&A gallery.
| Timeline | What to Expect |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | Treatment area feels warm. Mild temporary redness possible (resolves within hours). Some patients notice immediate skin firmness from collagen contraction. |
| Week 1-2 | No visible external changes yet. Internally, thermal-induced collagen denaturation is triggering wound healing cascade and fibroblast activation. |
| Month 1 | Early tightening becomes perceptible. Jawline appears slightly more defined. Treated submental fat begins reducing as damaged adipocytes undergo apoptosis. |
| Month 2-3 | Primary lifting results visible. B&A comparison shows clear jawline definition, reduced jowling, and tighter neck. Skin texture improvement noted in treated areas. |
| Month 4-6 | Peak results. Maximum neocollagenesis achieved. Fat reduction complete. This is when final B&A comparison shows most dramatic improvement. |
| Month 12+ | Results maintained with natural aging progression. Maintenance session (50-100kJ) recommended annually. Some patients achieve excellent longevity without maintenance. |

The Science Behind Onda Lifting Before & After Results
Peer-reviewed research explaining why Coolwaves microwave technology produces the lifting and contouring results documented in our gallery.
Coolwaves Microwave Selectivity: Why 2.45 GHz?
Onda operates at 2.45 GHz — the same frequency as domestic microwave ovens, but delivered at precisely controlled therapeutic intensities. At this frequency, electromagnetic energy is selectively absorbed by water molecules in tissue. The dermis and subcutaneous fat contain significantly more water than the relatively dry stratum corneum and epidermis. Combined with Onda’s integrated Peltier cooling system (maintaining the skin surface at 10-12°C), this selectivity allows deep tissue heating to 50-55°C while the epidermis remains unaffected. Bacci et al. (2019) in Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy (DOI: 10.1080/14764172.2019.1690665) confirmed that Coolwaves at 2.45 GHz produced selective deep tissue heating with preservation of epidermal integrity, enabling effective treatment with minimal side effects.
Collagen Contraction and Neocollagenesis Mechanism
When dermal collagen is heated to 50-55°C, its triple-helix structure undergoes partial denaturation, causing immediate fiber contraction (shortening by 20-30%). This initial contraction produces the subtle immediate tightening some patients notice on Day 1 of our B&A timeline. Subsequently, the controlled thermal injury activates the wound healing cascade: heat shock proteins (HSP47, HSP70) are upregulated, fibroblasts are activated, and new type I and type III collagen is synthesized over 2-6 months. This biphasic mechanism — immediate contraction followed by progressive neocollagenesis — explains the characteristic B&A pattern: modest early improvement that progressively increases through month 6.
Fat Reduction via Adipocyte Apoptosis
Beyond lifting, Onda’s DEEPER handpiece targets subcutaneous fat. Microwave energy at 2.45 GHz is absorbed by intracellular water in adipocytes, raising the cell temperature above the apoptosis threshold (approximately 45°C). Unlike cryolipolysis (which causes necrosis), microwave-induced adipocyte death occurs through apoptosis — a cleaner biological process with less inflammation. Fraterrigo et al. (2020) in Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (DOI: 10.1007/s00266-019-01460-3) documented 24% subcutaneous fat thickness reduction at 3-month follow-up using ultrasound measurement, with no adverse events. This dual lifting + contouring capability is what produces the dramatic double-chin reduction and jawline definition visible in our B&A gallery.
Combination with Revinas: Double Energy Protocol
RE:BERRY’s Double Energy Lifting protocol combines Onda Coolwaves (microwave, targeting dermal-hypodermal junction) with Revinas (radiofrequency, targeting dermis). These two energy modalities work at different tissue depths and through complementary mechanisms. While Onda contracts and remodels the deep collagen framework, Revinas stimulates superficial dermal tightening. Kim et al. (2022) in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology (DOI: 10.1111/jocd.14851) showed that multi-energy lifting protocols produced 38% greater improvement in skin laxity scores compared to single-modality treatment, consistent with the enhanced outcomes shown in our combination B&A cases.

What Patients Say About Their Onda Lifting Results
“I was nervous about a lifting treatment, but Onda was surprisingly comfortable. Three months later, my jawline is noticeably sharper and my double chin has visibly reduced. The before-after photos do not exaggerate — the improvement is real.”
“The Double Energy Lifting was worth every won. Onda plus Revinas gave me a visible lift that my friends noticed without me saying anything. Dr. Cho was thorough in explaining exactly which layer each device targets.”
“As a frequent traveler through Incheon, I appreciate that Onda has literally zero downtime. I had my treatment, went to the airport, and flew home. No redness, no swelling, just gradual lifting over the next few months.”
Frequently Asked Questions About Onda Lifting Before & After Results

Onda is one of the most comfortable lifting treatments available. The integrated Peltier cooling keeps the skin surface cool while microwave energy heats the deep tissue. Most patients rate discomfort at 2-3/10 — a warm, deep sensation. No anesthesia or numbing is needed.
Yes. Onda has zero downtime. No redness, swelling, or bruising in the vast majority of cases. The treatment area feels mildly warm for 1-2 hours post-treatment. This makes Onda ideal for transit patients at Incheon Airport who need to continue their journey immediately.
No. All B&A photos use RE:BERRY’s standardized clinical photography protocol: 5500K daylight ring lighting, consistent camera distance, multi-angle documentation, EXIF timestamps. No filters or digital enhancement beyond white-balance correction.
Onda (microwave) and Ultherapy (ultrasound) target different tissue depths. Ultherapy reaches the SMAS at 4.5mm with a specific FDA lifting indication. Onda targets the dermal-hypodermal junction with microwave selectivity and adds fat reduction capability. Both produce excellent lifting results. At RE:BERRY, Dr. Cho may recommend one or the other — or combine them — based on your anatomy and goals.
Yes. Onda’s DEEPER handpiece is specifically designed for body contouring — reducing localized fat on the abdomen, flanks, thighs, and arms. Fraterrigo et al. (2020) documented 24% fat thickness reduction. Our B&A gallery focuses on facial lifting, but body contouring cases are available during consultation.
Most patients in our B&A gallery achieved results with 1-2 sessions. For mild-to-moderate laxity, a single 100kJ session often suffices. For more significant laxity, 2-3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart are recommended. Dr. Cho assesses your specific needs during consultation.
Double Energy Lifting combines Onda Coolwaves (microwave targeting dermal-hypodermal junction) with Revinas (radiofrequency targeting dermis). This dual-energy approach treats two different tissue depths in one session, producing 38% greater improvement than single-modality treatment according to Kim et al. (2022). Our combination B&A cases show this enhanced result.
Results typically last 12-18 months, depending on individual aging factors, lifestyle, and sun exposure. Annual maintenance sessions (50-100kJ) can extend results. Some patients maintain visible improvement beyond 18 months without maintenance, as documented in our long-term follow-up photography.
Yes. Because Coolwaves bypass the epidermis, there is no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation or burns — making Onda safe for all Fitzpatrick skin types (I-VI). This is a significant advantage over some laser and light-based devices that carry PIH risk in darker skin types.
Absolutely. Our most popular combinations: Onda + Sofwave (Double Line-Up Lifting ₩1,590,000), Onda + Revinas (Double Energy Lifting ₩1,490,000), and the Ultimate Lifting (Onda + Revinas + Recovery Injection ₩2,390,000). Each combination targets different tissue depths for comprehensive rejuvenation.
The difference is in the handpiece used. DEEP handpiece targets the dermal-hypodermal junction for collagen contraction and skin tightening (face lifting). DEEPER handpiece targets subcutaneous fat for adipocyte apoptosis (body contouring). Both can be used in the same session for face + submental double chin treatment.
Ideal candidates have mild-to-moderate skin laxity, are not ready for surgical facelift, and want a comfortable treatment with zero downtime. Onda excels for jawline definition, double chin reduction, and overall facial tightening. Severe skin laxity may require combination with additional modalities or consideration of surgical options.
