Often a good fit for

  • A jawline softened by facial fat
  • Wanting fat reduction and firmness together
  • Concern: Double chin
  • Concern: Full lower cheeks

Other options may suit better for

  • Little facial fat with hollowing as the concern

Treatment may be limited or need discussion if

  • Pregnancy
  • Implanted electronic devices or metal implants (tell the doctor)
  • Inflammation in the area

Still deciding?

ONDA selectively heats the fat layer with microwaves, while InMode uses radiofrequency (FX and Forma) for fat reduction and firmness. Fat volume and skin thickness guide the choice. See the full comparison: ONDA Lifting vs InMode.
