ONDA PROCoolwaves® ContouringRichmond, BC

Heat where it matters — the skin's surface stays cool

For cellulite and softened contours that diet and exercise don't reach, without surgery. ONDA PRO sends 2.45GHz microwaves past the skin's surface and into subcutaneous fat and fibrous tissue. Most people describe it as a warm stone massage, and you can go straight back to work.

How it works

Controlled heat below, a cool surface above

ONDA PRO is the only aesthetic device powered by Coolwaves®, a microwave frequency built for this purpose.

With most energy-based devices, reaching deeper tissue also means heating the skin's surface along the way. The 2.45GHz frequency used by ONDA PRO travels past the surface and releases controlled heat at a set depth in subcutaneous fat and fibrous tissue, while the surface stays cool. Three handpieces focus that heat at three different depths, covering everything from large body areas to the submental area.

Improves cellulite appearance

Works on subcutaneous fat and the fibrous septae associated with the dimpled look of cellulite.

Contours targeted areas

Abdomen, flanks, thighs and buttocks, plus the submental area under the chin.

Comfortable, no downtime

The session feels like a warm stone massage. No compression garments, no time off work.

FAQ

ONDA PRO questions we get

How does ONDA PRO work?+

It uses Coolwaves®, a microwave frequency that bypasses the skin's surface and delivers focused heat below it, into subcutaneous tissue — targeting cellulite and contour in a way that is pain-free.

What does a treatment feel like?+

You feel warmth beneath the skin that gradually radiates upward, while the surface stays cool and comfortable. Many people describe it as a relaxing hot stone massage as the handpiece glides over the skin.

How long is a session, and how many do I need?+

Sessions run 15 minutes to an hour depending on the area. Two to three treatments are typically recommended, spaced 3–5 weeks apart, though some people see results after one. Your provider confirms the number at your assessment.

Can I exercise afterwards? Is there downtime?+

There is no downtime — you can go straight back to your day. Massage and movement help; avoid strenuous exercise for at least 48 hours. Walking is fine.

Who should not have this treatment?+

ONDA PRO is not used during pregnancy or breastfeeding (including up to 10 months after delivery), with heart conditions or electronic implants, with cancer in the past 5 years, severe vascular disease or clotting disorders, a hernia in the area, kidney or liver dysfunction, or uncontrolled diabetes. Anticoagulants, recent surgery, and tattoos or fillers in the area need a medical review first. Candidacy is confirmed at your assessment.

Start with an assessment
