ONDA vs. ONDA Pro: What's Actually Different?

First, what ONDA does

ONDA is the first and only device to use Coolwaves®— 2.45 GHz microwave energy that's selectively absorbed by water-rich fat beneath the skin. The controlled heat breaks down fat cells (which your body clears naturally over the following weeks), smooths cellulite, and tightens skin, all while built-in contact cooling protects the surface. It does this through two handpieces: Deep for stubborn, localized fat, and Shallow for cellulite and skin tightening (and the under-chin area). Both ONDA and ONDA Pro share this exact system.

So what does the Pro actually add?

One thing: a third handpiece called the Pocket. It's engineered for the delicate skin of the face— treating jowls, defining the jawline, and refining a double chin — at a shallower, more precise focal depth than the body handpieces use. It's a genuinely useful tool if facialCoolwaves contouring is what you're after. What it is not is a more powerful or better version for the body. The Deep and Shallow handpieces that do the body work are identical on both machines — and per DEKA's own published spec sheets, both run the same 200 W of Coolwaves® at 2.45 GHz. The power output is literally the same.

ONDA vs. ONDA Pro at a glance

ONDA and ONDA Pro are made by DEKA. Specifications from DEKA's official product brochures (ONDA Rev 1.6 and ONDA PRO Rev 1.0): both list Coolwaves® at 2.45 GHz and up to 200 W, with Deep and Shallow body handpieces; the Pro adds the Pocket handpiece for the face.

Why we invested in ONDA for body contouring

The vast majority of what patients want from Coolwaves is body work — a flatter abdomen, smoother flanks and thighs, less cellulite, tighter skin. Because ONDA delivers that with the exact same technology and handpieces as the Pro, investing in ONDA means our patients get the full-strength body-contouring result without paying a premium for a facial handpiece they may never need. We treat the abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, buttocks, and the under-chin area — the areas ONDA was built for.

What if I want facial skin tightening?

Then a device built for the face is the right call — and we have one. For tightening and contouring facial skin, we use Secret RF microneedling, which combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling to firm skin, soften lines, and refine the jawline. It's a purpose-built facial tool rather than a body device adapted for the face — so for facial goals, it's often the better fit anyway.

ONDA body contouring cost in Anaheim
