In addition to enjoying the beautiful scenery and delicious local food, traveling to Jeju Island now also includes one essential activity: undergoing medical beauty treatments! The ONDA ultramicro-wave Lifting and Titanium Lifting services offered by Dermatology The Lift in Jeju Island have become very popular among medical beauty enthusiasts in South Korea in recent years. So what are the differences between these two treatments? What are their effects? And how much do they cost? Today, I would like to share with you my personal experiences and detailed information about these treatments.
1️⃣ I. What is ONDA ultramicro-wave Lifting?
ONDA ultramicro-wave Lifting is a cosmetic treatment that uses high-frequency electromagnetic waves to tighten and lift the skin. Its core principle involves using precisely controlled microwave energy to penetrate deep into the skin’s underlying tissues, thereby stimulating the regeneration and remodeling of Collagen.
Technical features of ONDA:
- Microwave energy is capable of penetrating the surface layer of the skin and reaching the dermis as well as deeper layers of the skin tissue.
- This phenomenon is known as the “selective thermic effect” – it only heats up fat cells without damaging blood vessels or nerves.
- Immediate Lifting Effects: You can immediately notice an improvement in the firmness of your skin after the treatment.
- The level of pain is relatively low, and neither surgery nor anesthesia is required.
- Suitable areas: face, waist and abdomen, Arms, Thighs, Buttocks, etc.
ONDA has obtained the Class III medical device certification from South Korea’s MFDS and is known as the “fat GPS.” It can accurately locate the fat layer with the same precision as a CT scan, making it an ideal option for those who wish to lose weight in specific areas or tighten their skin.
2️⃣ II. What is Titanium Lifting?
Titanium Lifting is a cosmetic device that uses titanium as the therapeutic medium. Utilizing the high thermal conductivity of titanium, it stimulates the regeneration of Collagen in the deeper layers of the skin, thereby achieving the effects of skin tightening and Lifting.
Technical features of Titanium Lifting:
- Titanium is used as the therapeutic medium, boasting high biocompatibility.
- The cold-contact technique makes the treatment process more comfortable and prevents burns to the skin.
- Different probes can be used for different areas; treatments are also available for sensitive areas such as the around-the-eyes and mouth regions.
- It stimulates the regeneration of Collagen, and the effects can last for approximately six months.
- There is no recovery period; normal activities can be resumed immediately after treatment.
3️⃣ III. What are the differences between ONDA and Titanium Lifting?
Many people ask: How should one choose between ONDA and Titanium Lifting? In fact, both have their own advantages and are suitable for different needs.
👉 (I) Different technical principles
ONDA primarily utilizes microwave technology, which allows it to penetrate deep into the subcutaneous fat layer, resulting in more significant local slimming and tightening effects; whereas Titanium Lifting uses titanium as a medium to stimulate Collagen regeneration through heat conduction, making it more suitable for enhancing facial contours and anti-aging treatments.
👉 (II) Different application areas
ONDA is suitable for various parts of the body, including the waist, abdomen, Arms, Thighs, Buttocks, etc., and can help to tighten the entire body; Titanium Lifting, on the other hand, is specifically designed for facial Lifting and is more effective in addressing issues such as Nasolabial Fold Correction and loose jawlines.
👉 (III) Different treatment experiences
During the ONDA treatment, there may be a slight sense of heat, but it is generally tolerable. Titanium Lifting uses cold-contact technology, making the treatment process much more comfortable and virtually pain-free.
