What's appropriate for me: ONDA vs. ONDA Pro?
The honest, spec-by-spec breakdown — why the two machines are identical for the body, and when the Pro's facial handpiece actually matters.
Read the article →How does ONDA Coolwaves work?
Crafted in Italy by DEKA and popular in Korea, ONDA is the first and only device to use Coolwaves® — 2.45 GHz microwaves delivered through smart handpieces. The energy passes through the skin and is selectively absorbed by water-rich fat tissue underneath, where controlled heat breaks down fat cells. Your body then clears the released fat naturally through the lymphatic system over the weeks that follow.
The same controlled heat remodels the fibrous bands that cause cellulite dimpling and stimulates new collagen in the skin — which is why one ONDA treatment can reduce fat, smooth cellulite, and tighten skin at the same time. An integrated cooling system chills the skin surface throughout, protecting it while the energy works underneath.
- ✓Targets fat, cellulite & skin laxity in one treatment
- ✓Two handpieces: Deep for stubborn fat, Shallow for tightening, surface cellulite, and the chin area
- ✓Safe for all skin types
- ✓Non-invasive & comfortable — most patients describe a warm massage sensation
- ✓Zero downtime — walk in, walk out, get back to life
What areas can ONDA treat?
ONDA is FDA-cleared for body contouring and treats the areas where diet and exercise tend to fall short:
- ✓Abdomen
- ✓Flanks (love handles)
- ✓Hips
- ✓Buttocks
- ✓Thighs
- ✓Bra fat & back
- ✓Knees
- ✓Arms
- ✓Under the chin (submental)
How many sessions will I need, and when will I see results?
Most patients need 3–4 sessions — the average complete protocol is four sessions per area, one every 4 weeks, with each visit taking about 30–60 minutes per treatment area. Because your body clears the treated fat through the lymphatic system, results build gradually over weeks to months — you'll typically see the change continue to improve well after your final session. We schedule a follow-up about one month after you finish to assess your results.
ONDA vs. CoolSculpting
Both are non-invasive body contouring, but they work in opposite ways — and treat a different range of concerns:
| ONDA Coolwaves (Neoderma) | CoolSculpting | |
|---|---|---|
| How it works | Targeted microwave heat (Coolwaves®) | Freezing (cryolipolysis) |
| What it treats | Fat + cellulite + skin tightening in one treatment | Localized fat only |
| Sensation | Warm massage feeling, with skin-surface cooling | Intense cold, numbness, suction |
| Typical plan | 4 sessions, one every 4 weeks | 1–3 sessions per area |
| Downtime | None — back to your day immediately | Minimal; temporary numbness common |
ONDA vs. ONDA Pro: is the “Pro” better for my body?
We get asked this a lot, so here's the honest answer: for the body, there is no difference. Per DEKA's own spec sheets, ONDA and ONDA Pro run the same Coolwaves® energy — 200 W at 2.45 GHz — through the same two body handpieces (Deep for fat, Shallow for cellulite and tightening). The only thing the “Pro” adds is a third handpiece, the Pocket, built for the face. So if you're treating your abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, buttocks, or chin, the two machines deliver an identical treatment — which is exactly why we invested in ONDA.
| ONDA | ONDA Pro | |
|---|---|---|
| Power & frequency | 200 W · 2.45 GHz | 200 W · 2.45 GHz (identical) |
| Body handpieces | Deep + Shallow | Deep + Shallow (same) |
| Face handpiece | — | + Pocket (the only addition) |
How much does ONDA cost in Anaheim?
ONDA is priced per session, per treatment area — and for a limited time, sessions are up to 50% off:
| Treatment area | Regular price | Current special |
|---|---|---|
| Any body area (abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, buttocks…) | $900 / session | $499 / session |

Safety, side effects & medical oversight
ONDA is FDA 510(k)-cleared for body contouring, reduction of localized fat and cellulite, and improvement of skin laxity (a device clearance, not a drug approval). At Neoderma, treatments are performed by licensed medical providers trained and approved by Sal Nadkarni, DO, and your medical history is reviewed before any treatment. Temporary redness or warmth in the treated area is common and resolves quickly. Rare potential adverse effects include blistering, bruising, temporary numbness or altered sensation, and contour irregularity — we review all of this with you at your consultation. ONDA is not appropriate during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for patients with implanted cardiac devices or electronic stimulators, recent malignancy, severe vascular or clotting disorders, or uncontrolled diabetes.
ONDA body contouring FAQ
What is ONDA Coolwaves body contouring?
ONDA delivers 2.45 GHz Coolwaves — microwave energy that is selectively absorbed by water-rich fat tissue beneath the skin. The controlled heat breaks down fat cells, which your body clears naturally through the lymphatic system over the following weeks, while built-in contact cooling keeps the skin surface protected and comfortable.
Is ONDA FDA-cleared?
Yes. ONDA is FDA 510(k)-cleared as a non-invasive device for body contouring and the reduction of localized fat and cellulite, with associated improvement of skin laxity. It's made by DEKA in Florence, Italy — one of the world's leading medical laser and energy-device manufacturers.
How many ONDA sessions will I need?
The average complete protocol is four sessions per treatment area, spaced once every 4 weeks, with each session taking about 30–60 minutes per area. Results build gradually over weeks to months as your body clears the treated fat, and we schedule a follow-up about one month after your final session.
Does ONDA hurt?
No needles, no surgery, no downtime — most patients describe the treatment as a warm massage sensation. The handpiece's integrated cooling system chills the skin surface throughout treatment to keep you comfortable, and you can return to your normal day the moment you leave our office.
How much does ONDA body contouring cost?
ONDA is normally $900 per session for any body area (abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, buttocks) and $600 per session for the submental chin area — currently on special for $499 and $299 per session respectively. The average protocol is four sessions per area, and financing is available through Cherry and CareCredit.
Is the ONDA Pro better than the ONDA for body contouring?
For the body, they're the same. According to DEKA's own specifications, ONDA and ONDA Pro deliver identical Coolwaves energy — 200 W at 2.45 GHz — through the same two body handpieces (Deep for localized fat, Shallow for cellulite and skin tightening). The ONDA Pro's only addition is a third 'Pocket' handpiece designed for the face. For body areas like the abdomen, flanks, arms, thighs, buttocks, and under the chin, the treatment is identical on both machines.
How is ONDA different from CoolSculpting?
CoolSculpting freezes fat cells (cryolipolysis) and targets fat only. ONDA uses targeted microwave heat, and one treatment addresses three concerns at once: localized fat, cellulite, and skin laxity. Patients typically describe ONDA as a warm massage rather than the intense cold and numbness of cryolipolysis.
Who should not get ONDA?
ONDA isn't for everyone. You should not be treated if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, have a pacemaker or any implanted cardiac device or electronic stimulator, a current malignancy or one within the past 5 years, a severe vascular or clotting disorder, or uncontrolled diabetes. We review your full medical history first, and anything notable is reviewed by Dr. Nadkarni before treatment.
