High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation (HIFES) and Radio Frequency (RF) heating are used in EMFACE to rapidly burn fat and tighten facial muscle fibres. In just four minutes or less, skin-tightening and collagen-boosting temperatures are reached, and the integrated automatic temperature control guarantees that the desired temperature is maintained for the duration of the procedure.

The elevator facial muscles are developed and shaped by high-intensity contractions, which reduce facial wrinkles and give the face a more sculpted appearance.

 

Volume & Lift

EMFACE is the first device on the market utilizing the patented combination of Synchronized RF and HIFES® technologies to firm the framework of your face.

Synchronized RF heating remodels & smooths the skin by increasing the levels of collagen and elastin fibers.

HIFES® selectively tones the face-elevating muscles to restore and elevate support of facial features.

 

Brighter Eyes Better Looks

The EMFACE offers the first procedure designed to address the root causes of periorbital aging by simultaneously targeting both the skin and underlying muscles in the lower periorbital area.

This advanced approach improves skin quality to reduce the appearance of crow's feet and dark circles, while toning the lower periorbital muscle to diminish eyebags. The result is brighter, more youthful-looking eyes.

 

Reduce Your Double Chin

EMFACE Submentum applies a patented combination of 2 technologies to target all causes of double chin.

While Synchronized RF+ heats the dermal  and subdermal layers, the HIFES® selectively
tones the lax submental muscles. 

This is a solution for every double chin concern, whether it is increased volume or saggy skin. 

 

Two technologies to simultaneously affect multiple tissues.

Completely non-invasive solution.

20-minute procedure with no downtime.
 

High-intensity facial electromagnetic stimulation (HIFES technology) 

• This patented, FDA-cleared technology was developed by BTL Aesthetics, the same company behind Emsculpt and Emsculpt Neo. While those body-contouring treatments use a high-intensity focused electromagnetic energy (HIFEM) to target major muscle groups like the glutes and abdominals, Emface employs high-intensity facial electromagnetic stimulation (HIFES) to stimulate the more superficial facial muscles, which slacken and lose volume with age.
• HIFES produces 75,000 facial muscle contractions in each 20-minute session. Targeted muscles include the frontalis, which elevates the brow, and the zygomaticus major, minor, and risorius muscles in the cheeks that elevate the corners of the mouth and lift the midface. 
• These rapid contractions trigger cellular changes that increase muscle volume, density, and tone, giving the facial tissues more structural support. 

 

Synchronized radiofrequency energy (Sync RF) 

 

• Synchronized RF (radiofrequency) energy penetrates the dermis and warms the tissue to 40-42 degrees Celsius within a few minutes of treatment. This temperature is enough to induce new collagen and elastin growth, without affecting facial fat.
• Collagen and elastin are the structural proteins that give skin its elasticity, strength, and suppleness. We produce less of them as we get older, which leads to signs of facial aging. 
• Stimulating new collagen and elastin growth in the dermis leads to firmer, smoother, and more elastic skin over time.
• The heat also builds elastin in the SMAS (or superficial musculoaponeurotic system), the fibrous tissue layer that runs from mid-scalp to the clavicle. 

 

Does Emface work?

Clinical studies provided by BTL show that Emface works: a series of four treatments leads to a 30% improvement in muscle tone, a 23% lifting effect (particularly of the brows and cheeks), and a 37% reduction in wrinkles, with a 95% patient satisfaction rate.

These studies also showed that collagen increased by 26% and elastin levels rose 129%. Collagen remodeling and muscle fiber growth take time, so you’ll see optimal results three months after your last treatment.

It’s important to have realistic expectations about what any noninvasive facial rejuvenation treatment can achieve. Emface is not a substitute for a surgical facelift, which lifts the underlying muscles and skin while removing excess tissue. But it can be a good option for patients looking for a natural-looking improvement, without the risks, downtime, or scars of surgery.

 

'My honest review of EmFace, the skin-tightening alternative to fillers'

It's quite hard to convince me to do something new to my face, but Dr Wells sold EmFace to me, and invited me down to her clinic to try the new tech.

We decide to do lower-face EmFace, mostly targeting my cheeks where I have noticeable volume loss. The treatment begins with sticking electrodes to your face (and one on your back to carry the electronic current). The first thing I feel is warmth, and as the stimulation is turned up, my muscles begin to contract.

It feels really odd to have my lips and nose jolting involuntarily, but there's no pain. Dr Wells even tells me she has clients who fall asleep during the procedure. The electrodes are left on for 20 minutes and, when they're removed, I'm pretty shocked at the results.

My cheeks look higher and fuller, while my jaw line looks sharper than ever. It is perhaps best compared to the pump you get after exercise, where your muscles look more prominent as they've been activated by the weight and reps. The sculpting lasts – not quite as prominently, but it's been two weeks and I'm still seeing an uplift in my cheeks.

Ideally, you'd do an initial four sessions spaced one week apart, then maintain the muscle strength with one session every three-to-six months, says Dr Wells, with results being more defined and lasting longer over time (yes, just like the results you get from your gym session).

Dr Wells combined the EmFace treatment with Profhilo, an injectable hyaluronic acid that improves skin elasticity, hydration, and texture. As someone with dry skin, it helps to create a smoother and healthier complexion to compliment the sculpting of EmFace and enhance the results.
