ONDA PRO Coolwaves: The New Generation of Non-Invasive Face and Body Contouring

ONDA PRO Brings a New Direction to Coolwaves Technology

Non-invasive body contouring continues to move beyond a single treatment goal. Clinics are increasingly looking for platforms that can address localized fat, cellulite and skin laxity while also fitting into facial aesthetic treatment programs.

This is where ONDA PRO takes the original Coolwaves concept a step further.

Developed by DEKA, ONDA PRO combines Coolwaves microwave technology with Precision-GigaWave (PGW) technology and three handpieces designed for different treatment areas and depths. The most visible change is the addition of the Pocket handpiece, which extends the platform into smaller facial treatment areas such as the submental region and jawline.

Rather than being limited to body contouring, the newer platform is positioned as a broader face and body solution for aesthetic practices.

What Is New About ONDA PRO?

The original ONDA system introduced Coolwaves microwave technology for non-invasive body contouring. ONDA PRO builds on that platform with a more differentiated handpiece system and PGW technology.

The three handpieces — Deep, Shallow and Pocket — are designed for different anatomical areas and treatment requirements.

The Deep handpiece is intended for areas with more substantial subcutaneous tissue. The Shallow handpiece is designed for applications closer to the skin surface, including cellulite and skin tightening. The smaller Pocket handpiece is designed for more precise work on areas such as the lower face and submental region.

This is an important part of the ONDA PRO update. Instead of simply adding another body-contouring option, the platform broadens the range of areas that can be addressed with Coolwaves technology.

How Coolwaves Technology Fits Into Non-Invasive Contouring

Coolwaves uses microwave energy at 2.45 GHz and is designed to selectively target subcutaneous adipose tissue. The technology works by delivering controlled energy to the treatment area while the integrated cooling system helps protect the skin surface.

The aim is not general weight loss. The treatment is intended for localized areas where patients are looking for changes in body contour or the appearance of cellulite.

ONDA PRO also incorporates PGW technology, which DEKA developed to provide more selective energy delivery. This becomes particularly relevant when treating smaller or more delicate anatomical areas.

For practitioners, the combination of different handpieces and energy delivery technologies provides more flexibility when selecting an approach for a particular treatment area.

Three Handpieces, Different Treatment Applications

One of the clearest differences between the original ONDA platform and ONDA PRO is the handpiece configuration.

Deep Handpiece

The Deep handpiece is designed for deeper treatment applications and areas with more subcutaneous tissue. Typical treatment areas include the abdomen, flanks, hips and thighs.

Shallow Handpiece

The Shallow handpiece works at a shallower treatment depth and is used for applications such as cellulite appearance and skin tightening. It can be selected according to the treatment area and the practitioner's protocol.

Pocket Handpiece

The Pocket handpiece is the smaller option in the ONDA PRO system. Its size makes it suitable for more precise applications, particularly around the submental area and jawline.

This addition is significant because facial contouring requires a different approach from treating larger body areas. The Pocket handpiece allows practitioners to work within smaller treatment zones while maintaining the Coolwaves concept.

From Body Contouring to Facial Contouring

The move into facial applications is arguably the most notable development in ONDA PRO.

Body contouring typically involves relatively large treatment areas. Facial treatment requires greater attention to anatomical differences and treatment precision. The Pocket handpiece was developed with these smaller areas in mind.

Applications may include:

• Submental fullness
• Jawline contouring
• Lower-face contouring
• Skin tightening

For clinics already offering body contouring, this creates an opportunity to introduce facial applications without adding an entirely separate treatment platform.

It also reflects a wider change in the aesthetics market. Patients are not necessarily looking for a single dramatic procedure. Increasingly, they are interested in gradual improvements in contour, firmness and overall appearance with limited disruption to their daily routines.

What Can ONDA PRO Be Used For?

ONDA PRO is positioned around several related aesthetic concerns rather than one single indication.

Localized fat reduction focuses on areas of unwanted or resistant fat and is intended to improve body contour rather than produce overall weight loss.

Cellulite treatment focuses on the appearance and texture of cellulite, particularly on areas such as the thighs and buttocks.

Skin tightening is associated with the controlled heating of tissue and the body's subsequent remodeling response.

Facial contouring extends these applications to smaller areas such as the submental region and jawline.

The appropriate treatment approach depends on the treatment area, tissue characteristics and practitioner assessment.

What Patients Can Expect

ONDA PRO is a non-invasive treatment, so injections, incisions and surgical anesthesia are not part of the procedure.

During treatment, patients may experience a gradual warming sensation as the handpiece is applied to the skin. The integrated cooling system is designed to help maintain skin comfort during energy delivery.

Treatment time varies depending on the size and location of the treatment area and the protocol selected by the practitioner.

Because individual responses vary, results should not be presented as immediate or identical for every patient. Changes in contour and the appearance of cellulite generally develop progressively following treatment.

Temporary warmth, redness or tenderness may occur after treatment. Patients should follow the aftercare instructions provided by their practitioner.

The key difference is therefore not simply the number of handpieces. ONDA PRO expands the platform into treatment areas where greater precision is useful, particularly for facial contouring.

Why the Upgrade Matters to Aesthetic Clinics

For clinic owners, adding a new device is not only a technology decision. It also affects treatment menus, room utilization, staff training and long-term operating costs.

ONDA PRO combines several related contouring applications within one platform. A clinic can use the system for body contouring and cellulite-focused treatments while also introducing facial applications.

The handpieces are reusable, so routine disposable consumables are not a central part of the treatment workflow. This can also make the operating model easier to plan compared with technologies that depend heavily on single-use treatment components.

For practices that already have demand for non-invasive contouring, the broader application range may be more relevant than simply adding another device with a similar indication.

What Clinics Should Consider Before Adding ONDA PRO

Technology alone does not determine treatment outcomes. Clinics should consider the intended treatment area, patient selection, practitioner training and local regulatory requirements before introducing any aesthetic device.

It is also important to distinguish body contouring from weight management. ONDA PRO is intended for localized aesthetic contouring and is not a substitute for weight-loss treatment.

Before purchasing, clinics and distributors should also verify the regulatory status, intended use, training requirements and documentation applicable to their specific market.

No. ONDA PRO is intended for localized aesthetic contouring and fat reduction. It is not designed to treat general obesity or replace weight-management programs.

Can ONDA PRO be used for facial contouring?

Yes. ONDA PRO includes the Pocket handpiece, which is designed for more precise applications in areas such as the submental region and jawline.

Can ONDA PRO address cellulite?

Cellulite is one of the main aesthetic applications associated with the Coolwaves platform. Treatment suitability depends on the individual's anatomy and the practitioner's assessment.

Does ONDA PRO require downtime?

ONDA PRO is a non-invasive treatment and is generally associated with limited disruption to normal activities. Temporary redness, warmth or tenderness can occur, and individual recovery experiences may vary.

What should clinics check before purchasing?

Clinics should confirm the device's regulatory status and intended use in their country, as well as practitioner training, technical support, warranty terms and local requirements for installation and operation.

ONDA PRO represents a broader development of the Coolwaves platform rather than simply a new version of an existing body-contouring system.

Its combination of Coolwaves microwave technology, PGW technology and three application-specific handpieces allows the platform to address both larger body areas and smaller facial treatment zones.

For aesthetic clinics, the most relevant change may be the move from predominantly body-focused contouring toward a more flexible face and body platform. As demand for non-invasive aesthetic treatments continues to evolve, technologies that can serve several related treatment categories may become increasingly useful in the modern treatment room.
