About the EMFACE Treatment

EMFACE is a non-surgical facial procedure that combines synchronised radio frequency (RF) with High-Intensity Facial Electromagnetic Stimulation (HIFES™). These two technologies are delivered simultaneously, targeting both the skin surface and underlying facial structures.

  • Radio Frequency (RF): delivers controlled energy to the skin surface, which may help improve the appearance of skin tone and texture.
  • HIFES™ stimulation: uses electromagnetic pulses to activate facial muscles, which may support improvements in facial contours and overall appearance.

By combining these technologies, EMFACE may help improve the visible appearance of skin quality and facial definition without the use of needles or surgery.

Important Information

  • Outcomes and experiences vary between individuals, and no result can be guaranteed.
  • Temporary effects such as redness or mild sensitivity may occur.
  • A consultation with a qualified health practitioner is required to confirm suitability and discuss alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions

EMFACE may help improve the appearance of facial tone and skin quality for some individuals. Outcomes differ depending on factors such as age, skin type, and muscle characteristics, and no result can be guaranteed. A consultation with a qualified health practitioner is required to determine suitability and discuss alternatives.

While some people notice subtle changes within weeks of their first session, a series of treatments is typically recommended to support the best possible outcome. The exact number of sessions required depends on your individualised assessment, skin type, and cosmetic goals. We will be covering session frequency and the timeline for visible changes in our upcoming article: How Many Emface Treatments Are Needed for Results?

Some people notice changes within weeks of completing a treatment series, with further differences becoming visible over 2–3 months. The duration of outcomes varies between individuals. Your practitioner may discuss whether repeat sessions are appropriate to help maintain appearance changes over time.

Comfort levels differ from person to person. Many people describe the sensation as warmth with mild muscle contractions or tingling. While generally well tolerated, experiences vary, and your practitioner can use strategies to support comfort during the procedure. We explore the sensations and patient comfort in more detail in our upcoming blog: Does Emface Hurt? What the Treatment Feels Like.
