"I lost weight, but my abdomen still looks saggy."

"The uneven lines on my upper arms and thighs aren’t smoothing out well."

Many people visit us because body skin sagging after weight loss

has not improved as much as they expected.

Even when fat cells shrink, stretched skin 

does not tighten at the same pace.

Body lines are not determined by the amount of fat alone.

Collagen supporting the skin, elastic fibers, the thickness and distribution of subcutaneous fat,

muscle mass, and cellulite all play a role.

In particular, if you lost weight quickly or have already lost skin elasticity,

loose skin can remain around the abdomen, the underside of the arms, and the inner thighs.

We’ll explain the principles and differences between

Body Onda and Xerf treatments, which can help create a firmer line than you have now.

"Q: Body Onda vs. Body Xerf"

Body Onda is a representative treatment for a firm body line.

But recently, Body Xerf has also been drawing attention.

The two treatments differ in the energy they use and the tissue they target.

☑️ Xerf: dual RF at 6.78MHz and 2MHz

Depending on the skin condition, it delivers thermal energy at different depths to induce a collagen remodeling response.

Used to manage elasticity and density in the abdomen and upper arms, where skin has become thin and loose.

☑️ Onda: 2.45GHz microwave energy

It delivers heat to the dermis and subcutaneous fat layer to refine sagging and localized fat

as well as body lines that look bumpy due to remaining cellulite.

In short, Xerf may be suitable when fat volume is not high but the skin looks thin and loose,

while Onda may be appropriate when localized fat and skin sagging are both present.

"Q. Are Onda and Xerf sometimes planned together?"

Decreased skin elasticity and localized fat do not appear for just one reason.

For example, after weight loss, abdominal fat may decrease but the skin may remain loose,

and in some areas, localized fat and cellulite can appear together.

In such cases, a combined approach with Body Onda and Body Xerf may be considered rather than using just one treatment.

However, receiving both treatments together does not automatically lead to better results.

The order of application, energy settings, treatment area, and interval vary depending on the thickness and fat volume of each area.

The same plan is difficult to apply to the abdomen, where the skin area is wide and fat is concentrated,

and to the upper arms, where the skin is thin and movement is frequent.

Before treatment, the skin and fat condition of the target area should be assessed and a plan established accordingly.

"The number on the scale

doesn’t determine your body line"

When managing sagging left after dieting, it is more important than how much fat to reduce

to identify what changes remain in the skin and fat layer.

If the skin has become thin and loose, Body Xerf may be considered,

and for bumpy lines caused by localized fat or cellulite, Body Onda treatment

can be considered first.

If both concerns are present at the same time,

Xerf and Onda may be combined to separately manage elasticity and body line.

At GU Clinic Gangnam Main Branch in Seoul, the treatment range and

energy of both devices are adjusted based on skin thickness, fat volume, sagging location,

and the line you want.

Even in the same area, skin and fat-layer conditions differ from person to person,

so a plan tailored to your current body condition is needed rather than a fixed approach.

If you’ve lost weight but your abdomen, upper arms, or thigh lines still bother you,

we recommend consulting on a body firming plan that suits your body

rather than forcing further weight loss.
