ONDA Body Contouring Procedure: Step by Step from Consultation to Going Home
Step-by-step
- Consultation: Dr. Lee Da-in reviews your concerns (belly fat, love handles), medical history, medications and past treatments.
- Treatment plan: areas (abdomen, flanks, upper arms, thighs, back), intensity or dose, and the expected course are explained.
- Preparation: cleansing, then anaesthesia — not needed.
- Treatment: performed with ONDA body handpiece, taking about 20–40 minutes per area.
- Calming and going home: soothing care if needed and aftercare instructions. Downtime: swelling or soreness for a few days.
How it works
ONDA Body uses microwave energy to heat the fat layer, targeting localized fat and cellulite. Surface cooling protects the skin and the dose is adjusted by area.
Tell the doctor before treatment
- Current medications (especially blood thinners or photosensitising drugs)
- Recent procedures and dates
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Implanted electronic devices or metal implants
For care after treatment, see ONDA Body Contouring recovery and aftercare.
