Onda Lifting: Reduced Burden

What makes Kkeut Clinic's Onda Lifting special?

1. Pre-procedure design + Handpiece strategy planning

At Kkeut Clinic, the director personally designs the lifting procedure. We carefully identify areas that need elasticity improvement and contouring, then precisely allocate the 3mm / 7mm handpieces. We avoid areas prone to cheek hollowing and focus on areas requiring tightening.

2. Sufficient energy guarantee

Energy can be set from 60,000 to 120,000 joules for the face. This is not simply about applying a lot of energy, but rather a customized design tailored to the patient's skin condition and goals.

3. Skilled speed control

Treatment performance also depends on handpiece speed. At Kkeut Clinic, slower passes build heat where needed, while quicker movement over sensitive areas helps prevent overheating.

4. Customized shot distribution by area

The 3 mm and 7 mm handpieces are allocated according to each patient's facial volume and fat pattern. We favor 3 mm in leaner faces and increase the 7 mm share for heavier fat around the double chin or lower face.

The Kkeut Clinic Difference in Onda Lifting

At Kkeut Clinic, rather than performing Onda Lifting solely at 90W from the start,

we use a method of rapidly raising the temperature with an initial high output of 100-110W, then maintaining it at 90W.

The Kkeut Clinic difference in treatment method!

Shorter time to reaction point:

Even at the same total energy, a higher initial output raises tissue temperature more quickly.

This means the time to reach the energy accumulation zone is shortened,

and the point at which the skin begins to react is consequently advanced.

Minimizing energy loss in the core reaction zone:

A brief high-output pass can reach the target temperature before heat disperses into surrounding tissue,

allowing for a dermis- and fat-layer-centered reaction without epidermal damage.

High efficiency for short treatment time:

If treated only at 90W, it takes longer to reach the reaction zone,

and more joules may be needed to create a sufficient thermal reaction.

In contrast, a high-output start completes the necessary heat delivery in a short time,

and subsequent power adjustment can ensure safety.

Differences felt by the customer:

▶ Compared to 90W standalone treatment,

→ the lifting effect is felt sooner,

→ and the feeling of firm, tightened skin immediately after the procedure is more pronounced.

Furthermore, since the output is adjusted before the heat sensation exceeds a certain level,

→ pain or discomfort during the procedure does not become excessive.

Consequently, even with the same 60,000 joules, the results can vary entirely depending on the output adjustment,

the results can vary entirely,

Kkeut Clinic shows that difference through its results.

Features of Onda Lifting

Lifting and tightening simultaneously

Onda Lifting is a next-generation premium lifting device that uses ultra-short microwave (2.45GHz) to deliver heat to the dermis and subcutaneous fat layers, simultaneously achieving lifting and tightening effects.

Operating on the principle of vibrating water molecules to generate frictional heat, similar to a microwave oven, it induces collagen contraction and production, as well as fat cell destruction, making immediate lifting effects a key feature.

Microwaves have the characteristic of being absorbed by water within the skin to generate heat. This allows them to selectively deliver powerful stimulation to the dermis and subcutaneous fat layers without irritating the epidermis.

Unlike other lifting devices, Onda's advantage is its ability to simultaneously achieve both lifting and tightening with a single device.

Onda is designed to combine contour-focused lifting with improvements in skin texture and firmness.

Key Principles of Onda Lifting

The treatment uses both 3 mm and 7 mm handpieces according to the target depth.

The 3 mm handpiece delivers energy near the junction of the dermis and subcutaneous fat.

When heat is applied at this depth, it stimulates the production of collagen and elastin fibers, promotes hyaluronic acid synthesis, and causes existing collagen to contract, resulting in an immediate skin tightening effect.

Additionally, edematous fat loses water, leading to immediate changes in contour.

The 7 mm handpiece reaches deeper subcutaneous fat, where it selectively disrupts fat-cell membranes and promotes apoptosis.Damaged fat cells are cleared via the lymphatic system, leading to a contouring effect. Changes begin in 2-3 weeks, contour changes are visible after 4 weeks, with peak effects at 6 weeks. The destroyed fat cells do not regenerate thereafter, making the results semi-permanent.

It can also tighten retaining ligaments immediately, contributing to an early lifting response.Temperature Control: Dermal collagen contracts when heated to roughly 60–65 degrees Celsius. To reach this optimal temperature, a technique of slowly moving the handpiece to accumulate heat is crucial.

Principle of Water-Selective Absorption: Microwaves have the characteristic of being absorbed only by water. This means they generate heat intensively only in fat cells and the water layers within the dermis, with minimal stimulation to nerves and blood vessels. This allows for a safe lifting procedure with less pain and a low risk of side effects.

Recommended Complementary Lifting Treatments

At Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic, Onda Lifting can be performed as a standalone treatment, but when combined with Shurink (targeting the fascia layer) or Oligio (RF tightening), the synergistic effect is maximized.

Especially when treatments are performed on the same day, the heat accumulation time is reduced, allowing for higher satisfaction.

A Message from the Chief Director

At Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic, we perform multiple Onda Lifting procedures every day.

However, each individual's lifting design is customized differently.

As the chief director, we stay after treatments to consider how we can achieve even better lifting results.

This is because we believe that true lifting is not just operating a device, but understanding the skin's texture and flow, and then designing contour changes within that understanding.

Onda Lifting: The difference comes from the human touch, not just the device.

Experience it at Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic.

Onda Lifting: Why Does It Have Immediate Effects?Onda Lifting directs microwave heat toward the 3 mm and 7 mm target depths in the skin.

During treatment, collagen fibers are quickly heated beyond 65°C, which triggers immediate contraction, and

the lifting effect can be visibly observed immediately after the procedure.

Unlike traditional radiofrequency lifting where you have to wait for gradual changes,

the biggest differentiator of Onda Lifting is that you can immediately feel the improvement in elasticity and lifting.

We highly recommend it for those who desire quick results.

Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic Onda Lifting

1. Pre-Treatment Design + Handpiece Strategy Planning

At Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic, precise pre-treatment design is crucial.

After a direct consultation with the director, we comprehensively analyze skin elasticity, fat distribution, volume presence, and lifting direction before the procedure to design the treatment area.

Accordingly, the 3mm handpiece (focused on dermal stimulation) and the 7mm handpiece (focused on targeting the fat layer) are appropriately placed in their respective areas.

This is not a simple procedure, but a design-centric, strategic lifting treatment.

2. Sufficient Energy Assurance + Detailed Settings

Total energy is important for Onda Lifting.

Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic can customize treatments from 60,000 to over 120,000 Joules, precisely planning the appropriate treatment time for that amount and a cooling strategy to prevent overheating.

3. Handpiece Speed and Heat Accumulation Control

For Onda, heat accumulation is equivalent to lifting.

Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic follows a routine of maintaining a slow speed for initial heat accumulation, then transitioning to a faster speed in the later stages to minimize the risk of burns.

This control setting requires accumulated experience from the practitioner.

4. Customized Handpiece Distribution and Shot Strategy

The shot strategy should differ for individuals with plump cheeks versus those experiencing only a loss of elasticity.

Kkeuthan Clinic adjusts the ratio of 3mm and 7mm handpieces according to volume, fat location, and skin thickness.

For example, areas with more fat, such as the chin, are primarily treated with the 7mm handpiece, while areas immediately below the cheekbones where hollowness is a concern are primarily treated with the 3mm handpiece.

Upgrading from simple irradiation to a customized distribution strategy.

5. Designed by Our Lead Directors, Through Continuous Deliberation and Research

Kkeuthan Clinic performs numerous Onda Lifting treatments, often treating Onda during every appointment slot each day.

However, the design is always different.

Even outside of consultation hours, our lead directors simulate changes in patients' faces and repeatedly test energy settings and handpiece placements to maximize effectiveness.

Onda Lifting can be performed by anyone, but the results vary significantly depending on who designs the treatment.

Onda Lifting depends not only on the device but also on the clinician's design and technique.
