We look at the fat layer and skin firmness together with microwave energy
to care for the facial contour.
Why Lisoom
ONDA is a non-surgical lifting and body contouring device from DEKA that uses 2.45GHz microwave energy.
The microwaves make water molecules in the tissue vibrate to produce heat, and because the same frequency is readily absorbed by fat cells, it acts on the dermis and the subcutaneous fat layer at the same time.
The patented Coolwaves™ cooling protects the epidermis and lowers the risk of burns, and the energy source is distinct in its mode of action from radiofrequency and ultrasound.
DESIGN PRINCIPLE
The principle is that 2.45 GHz microwaves make the water molecules in skin tissue vibrate to generate heat. Because the same frequency is also selectively absorbed by fat cells, the energy reaches the subcutaneous fat layer without dispersing in the epidermis and upper dermis. It is a new energy source whose mode of action is distinct from radiofrequency and ultrasound.
Tightening from collagen stimulation is induced in the dermis, and fat cell reduction in the subcutaneous fat layer, at the same time. When applied to the face, it works to reduce localized fat in the jowl and double chin areas while also tightening loose skin. Addressing both layers with a single device is the key feature of ONDA.
The patented Coolwaves™ cooling system is combined with a contact temperature sensor, automatically regulating the epidermal temperature so that it does not rise excessively during treatment. The risk of burns is relatively low and discomfort is limited, so treatment can generally be performed without topical anesthesia. It is a non-surgical option that allows a return to daily activities right after treatment.
On the face, it is applied to refine the jowls, double chin, and jawline; on the body, it is used to refine cellulite and localized fat bulges on the abdomen, flanks, upper arms, and thighs. Separate handpieces for deep and superficial layers (Deep and Shallow) are used depending on the area, and even with the same device, intensity settings differ between the face and the body.
OUR PRINCIPLE
ONDA is a microwave device that acts on the dermis and fat layer at the same time. However, device specifications alone do not determine the result; assessing first whether it suits the structure of the patient's face and body is what determines the stability of the result.
Suitability First
For those with very little facial fat or a lean face with hollow cheeks, ONDA may instead lead to a tired-looking appearance. We first assess the patient's facial structure in the consultation, and if we judge it unsuitable, we honestly explain other options. We do not push the treatment.
Not Weight Loss
ONDA is not a weight-loss treatment but an option for addressing localized fat, contour, and firmness. It is not a substitute for whole-body dieting but is suited to refining the contour area by area, and results settle gradually as sessions accumulate. We do not promise dramatic change from 1 session.
Safe Range First
Having Coolwaves™ cooling does not mean we operate at maximum intensity. We work within a safe intensity range matched to the skin thickness, fat thickness, and pain sensitivity of each area, and prioritize cumulative stability over forcing a result from 1 session. We tend to run the treatment so that patients can ease into regular care without strain.
ONDA delivers 2.45GHz microwaves to the skin and generates heat by making the water molecules in the tissue vibrate. This frequency is readily absorbed by fat cells, so it tends to reach the subcutaneous fat layer without dispersing in the epidermis and upper dermis. It is an energy source whose very mode of action differs from radiofrequency (RF) and ultrasound. Water molecule vibration with 2.45GHz microwaves · Selective absorption by fat cells · Simultaneous action on the dermis and subcutaneous fat layer · An energy source distinct from RF and ultrasound
Tightening from collagen stimulation is induced in the dermis together with fat cell reduction in the subcutaneous fat layer, so a single device addresses both layers. The patented Coolwaves™ cooling is combined with a contact temperature sensor to keep the epidermal temperature from rising excessively during treatment. Because discomfort tends to be limited, treatment can generally be performed without topical anesthesia. Dermal collagen stimulation + fat cell reduction · Refinement of localized contours such as the jowls and double chin · Epidermal protection with Coolwaves™ cooling · Little anesthesia burden and a return to daily activities right after treatment

Doctor's Note
What most distinguishes ONDA from other lifting devices is that its microwaves act selectively on fat cells. That makes it a good option for suitable patients, but for those with very little facial fat it can instead lead to a tired-looking appearance, so careful assessment comes first. Rather than looking only at device specifications, I believe that honestly judging in the consultation whether it fits the patient's facial structure is the standard for results.
PROCEDURE FLOW
01
PHASE I
We examine facial fullness, fat distribution, and the pattern of sagging to first determine whether the structure is suitable for microwave treatment.
02
PHASE II
We define the localized areas, such as the jowls and double chin, and plan the intensity and number of sessions matched to the dermis and subcutaneous fat layer.
03
PHASE III
While Coolwaves cooling protects the epidermis, 2.45GHz microwaves are delivered without topical anesthesia.
04
PHASE IV
We explain the gradual change over 1-3 months, the timing of the next session, and daily care.
