View all Facial Treatments →ONDA PRO® and Sofwave™ are our two flagship non-invasive, zero-downtime energy platforms at Minori Skincare in NoMad, Manhattan — and rather than competing, they target complementary tissue layers. ONDA PRO® uses 2.45 GHz Coolwaves® microwaves with Pocket, Shallow, and Deep handpieces to address submental fullness (double chin), body contours (abdomen, waist, flanks, thighs, upper arms), and cellulite appearance from $350 per zone. Sofwave™ uses 7 synchronous parallel ultrasound beams (SUPERB™) focused at 1.5 mm in the mid-dermis to lift the eyebrow, lift lax submental and neck tissue, smooth facial lines, improve upper-arm laxity, and treat acne scars from $650.

| Compare | ONDA PRO®2.45 GHz Coolwaves® Contouring & Tightening | Sofwave™SUPERB™ Ultrasound Lift |
|---|---|---|
| Energy modality & target depth | 2.45 GHz Coolwaves® microwaves (Pocket, Shallow & Deep handpieces) with 5°C contact cooling — roughly 80% of energy reaches deeper subcutaneous tissue while 20% warms the dermis. | SUPERB™ Synchronous Ultrasound Parallel Beam technology with Sofcool™ cooling — 7 parallel beams heat the mid-dermis precisely at 1.5 mm depth (60–70°C) while sparing tissue below 2 mm. |
| Best-suited areas & goals | Submental fullness (double chin) and lower-face heaviness (Pocket), abdomen/waist/flank/thigh body contouring (Deep), upper-arm contouring and cellulite appearance (Shallow). | Eyebrow lift, lax submental and anterior neck lift, full-face fine lines and wrinkles, rolling acne scars, upper-arm skin laxity, and cellulite appearance. |
| What the FDA clearance says | Cleared as SPECCHIO under 510(k) K260647 for heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for selected medical conditions such as temporary relief of pain, muscle spasms, and increase in local circulation — and, via the massage device, a temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite. | Cleared under 510(k) K250146 for improvement of facial lines and wrinkles, lifting the eyebrow, lifting lax submental and neck tissue, improvement of upper-arm laxity, treatment of acne scars, and temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite. |
| How it feels & preparation | No numbing cream needed. Continuous 5°C sapphire cooling keeps the skin surface cool while a smooth, spreading warmth builds beneath. | Topical numbing cream is applied for 30–45 minutes beforehand; each 4-second ultrasound pulse builds to a brief, deep warmth countered by Sofcool™ contact cooling. |
| Downtime | None — 0 days of peeling or bruising; return to your day immediately. | None — the epidermis remains intact at 1.5 mm depth, so you can apply makeup and return to normal plans right away. |
| Session length & pricing at Minori NYC | 30 minutes per zone · Single zone from $350 (submental/jawline or body zone); multi-session series planned at consultation. | 30–60 minutes · Single zone (e.g., brow) from $650 · Full Face $2,300 · Face + Neck $2,500. |
It depends on whether your under-chin concern is primarily volume or dermal laxity — and many NYC clients benefit from both. When a soft submental pad blurs the jawline, the ONDA PRO® Pocket handpiece ($350, 30 min) targets that fuller layer alongside dermal warmth. When laxity across the brow, mid-face, jawline, and neck is the primary driver, Sofwave™ ($650 single zone / $2,300 Full Face / $2,500 Face + Neck) lifts at 1.5 mm mid-dermal depth.
Yes — pairing ONDA PRO® Pocket (for submental fullness) with Sofwave™ (for 1.5 mm mid-dermal lifting of the face, brow, and neck) is one of our signature non-surgical combinations at Minori Skincare in NoMad, Manhattan, because the two devices work at complementary depths with zero needle downtime.
Both platforms carry FDA 510(k) clearances that include a temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite — ONDA PRO® (cleared as SPECCHIO under K260647) via its massage handpiece assembly and 2.45 GHz thermal delivery, and Sofwave™ (under K250146) via 1.5 mm synchronous parallel ultrasound. At consultation, we assess your thighs, buttocks, or upper arms standing in even light to recommend the right protocol.
