Quick and Easy Treatment

For your Emface treatment, your provider will place the applicators on your cheeks and forehead. Many of our patients compare the muscle contractions and treatment sensation to a warming massage.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Science Behind Emface

By using high-intensity focused electromagnetic stimulation (HIFES), Emface creates intense facial muscle contractions that restore volume to facial features over time. When paired with thermal energy from radiofrequency, Emface also boosts collagen and elastin production to improve the skin at a cellular level for a firmer, more youthful complexion.

What to Expect

Emface is an entirely pain-free facial contouring and muscle building treatment. During this noninvasive treatment, many of our patients report feeling slight muscle contractions and a warming sensation.

Though the results of Emface are gradual, you can usually see facial muscle tone improvements within your first few sessions. Our experts recommend a minimum of 4 Emface treatment sessions for continued collagen regeneration.

Instructions for Care

After your Emface facial muscle building treatment,  your provider will give you an in-depth guide to take care of your skin. We recommend following these suggestions and attending all additional appointments to achieve optimal results.

Similar to many of our other treatments, we recommend staying hydrated before and after all your Emface treatment sessions. Drinking plenty of water can accelerate the healing process and enhance your facial contouring results.
