Lifting

Microwave Lifting

Microwave energy is delivered to the tissue beneath the skin to help with contour and firmness. We plan the energy and area for your face and combine other treatments when appropriate.

Facial treatment with a microwave lifting device

CHECK

This may be for you if…

  • Those concerned about contour and sagging along the jawline
  • Those who want a gentle start with a trial session
  • Those who want to consider facial asymmetry together
  • Those who prefer to return to daily life soon after treatment

UNDERSTAND

What changes in a face in the 50s and 60s?

If the concern in the 20s and 30s is acne and pigmentation, in the 50s and 60s it is deepening wrinkles and sagging. We look not only at the skin surface but also the dermis, fat and left–right balance.

Skin

Dermal collagen decreases

With age, collagen fibers in the dermis are lost and fragmented, making skin thinner and weaker. It is the basis of reduced firmness and deep wrinkles.

Contour

Fat and supporting structures change

Facial fat moves downward and supporting structures weaken, blurring the jawline and making a double chin more visible.

Balance

Left–right balance matters too

Chewing on one side and tension in the jaw joint, neck and shoulders can create facial asymmetry.

APPROACH

How we treat

01

Microwave lifting (domestic PTING device)

PTING uses the same microwave method as Onda lifting. Microwave energy delivers heat to the dermis and subcutaneous fat layer to care for firmness and contour. Energy is adjusted within 60,000–100,000 J according to the area and fat-layer thickness.

02

Filler thread (volume threads)

Absorbable threads placed in deepened wrinkle areas to support volume and structure.

03

Lipocut pharmacopuncture

Used for local fat concerns such as the double chin, upper arms or abdomen.

04

Jaw balance therapy (TBT)

Balances the jaw joint and upper neck to look at facial asymmetry and nerve-related symptoms together.

05

Skin booster

A treatment for skin moisture and texture that can be combined with lifting.

PROCESS

What a visit looks like

  1. STEP 01Consultation & facial analysisWe check concerned areas, left–right balance, skin condition, fat-layer thickness and treatment history.
  2. STEP 02Design planningWe plan areas such as full face or double chin and lower face, energy settings and combined treatments.
  3. STEP 03TreatmentAfter preparation to reduce discomfort, treatment is performed. Microwave lifting takes about 9 minutes at 80,000 J.
  4. STEP 04After careWe explain precautions after treatment and the timing of the next care.
Please note
  • The effect of microwave lifting lasts about 1 to 2 months, so regular care is recommended.
  • Please tell us before treatment if you are pregnant, have an implanted device (such as a pacemaker), or have skin disease or wounds in the treatment area.
  • Temporary redness, swelling or tightness may occur after treatment.
  • Cosmetic treatments are non-covered and subject to VAT. Fees are given at consultation.
  • Treatment results and progress vary by individual.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is PTING the same as Onda?

PTING is a domestic device using the same microwave method as Onda lifting, and we operate it with the same reference settings (energy in J and treatment time).

How long does the effect last?

The effect generally lasts about one to two months, so regular care is recommended. It varies by individual.

Can facial asymmetry be considered too?

Yes. We plan energy distribution and combined treatments with asymmetry in mind, and also look at one-sided chewing habits and jaw joint influence.

Treatment results and progress vary by individual. This page provides general information and does not replace a medical consultation.
