What Is EMFACE Lifting?
EMFACE is a next-generation, needle-free facial lifting treatment that tightens the skin and tones the facial muscles at the same time.
It is the first device to combine synchronized radiofrequency (RF) with HIFES™ (High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation) in a single procedure, targeting both the skin and the underlying muscles for a true non-surgical facelift effect.
How EMFACE Works – Dual Energy, Multi-Layer Action
1. Synchronized RF: Dermal Collagen & Elastin Boost
Synchronized RF gently heats the dermis to a controlled temperature (around 40–42°C). This thermal stimulation:
● Activates fibroblasts
● Increases collagen and elastin production
● Improves skin firmness, elasticity and texture
Clinical data show that EMFACE can increase collagen by about 26% and nearly double elastin levels, leading to smoother, tighter skin over time.
2. HIFES™: Facial Muscle Lifting & Toning
HIFES delivers high-intensity electrical pulses that selectively contract the elevator muscles of the face—such as the frontalis and zygomaticus muscles—which are responsible for lifting the eyebrows, midface and corners of the mouth.
These strong yet comfortable contractions:
● Increase muscle tone and density
● Restore support to sagging tissues
● Create a naturally lifted, “pulled-up” look without freezing expression
3. Why the Combination Matters
By treating both the dermis and the superficial facial muscles in one session, EMFACE offers a layered approach to aging:
● RF rebuilds the skin’s support structure
● HIFES strengthens the muscular “scaffolding” underneath
This synergy improves facial contours and reduces wrinkles more effectively than treatments that only target the skin or only target the muscles.
Which Skin Layers Does EMFACE Target?
EMFACE works across several key levels:
● Epidermis / Dermis: RF heat remodels collagen and elastin for smoother, firmer skin.
● SMAS & Fibrous Tissue: Energy supports the connective tissue layer that links skin and muscle, helping to lift the lower face and jawline.
● Superficial Facial Muscles: HIFES contracts the frontalis, zygomaticus major/minor and risorius muscles to elevate the brows, cheeks and mouth corners.
This multi-layer treatment is what allows EMFACE to mimic some of the benefits of a facelift—without surgery, needles or fillers.
Who Is EMFACE For?
EMFACE is suitable for women and men who:
● Notice sagging in the midface or jawline
● Want a brow lift or improvement in hooded eyelids
● See nasolabial folds, marionette lines or static wrinkles deepen
● Prefer a non-invasive, no-needle option
● Want to prevent early signs of aging and maintain strong facial support
● Want to enhance or prolong the results of fillers, threads or energy-based lifting
It is particularly attractive for patients who want visible lifting and wrinkle reduction while keeping natural facial movement.
Clinical Results – What Can You Expect?
Across multiple clinical studies on EMFACE:
● 37% reduction in facial wrinkles in treated areas
● 23% average lifting effect of the face and brows
● 30% increase in muscle tone
● 26% increase in collagen with a two-fold increase in elastin
● High patient satisfaction with natural-looking results
Most protocols involve four sessions, about 20 minutes each, spaced 5–10 days apart. Results continue to improve over several months as collagen remodelling and muscle strengthening progress.
Treatment Experience & Recovery Time
An EMFACE session is comfortable and quick:
● No needles, numbing cream or incisions
● You feel a warming sensation on the skin from RF and strong but tolerable muscle contractions from HIFES
● No bruising and typically no real downtime—most people return to work or social activities immediately
After treatment, the skin may look slightly pink for a short time, but makeup and normal skincare can usually be resumed the same day unless your doctor advises otherwise.
