The Effects of EMFACE® on Wrinkle Reduction and Facial Skin Tightening

November 29, 2023

Have you been noticing more wrinkles and fine lines when you look in the mirror? While your skin changes with time, many of us still feel young at heart and want our appearance to reflect that. One way to achieve that is through EMFACE® treatment.

The impact EMFACE® has on wrinkle reduction is clear. It’s also helping people create a more youthful look with a non-invasive approach. 

In this guide, you’ll learn more about the effects of EMFACE® and how it works.

How Does EMFACE® Work?

EMFACE® is a facelifting and smoothing procedure that doesn’t use needles or surgery to achieve its goals. Instead, it combines high-intensity facial electromagnetic stimulation technology (HIFES) and synchronized radiofrequency energy (Sync RF).

So, how does EMFACE® work to transform the look of your skin and create a more youthful appearance? 

· Electromagnetics stimulate continuous contractions in your facial muscles. This gives them a workout so that they grow more toned or sculpted over time. 

· Simultaneously, the Sync RF dives deep beneath the skin’s surface to warm up the underlying tissues. This stimulates collagen and elastin production.

During an EMFACE® session, your facial care provider attaches three applicators—one across the forehead and one on each cheek. These applicators contain electrodes to stimulate muscle contractions and emit radiofrequency energy simultaneously. It isn’t painful but produces a warm, tingling sensation.

The applicators remain on your face for about 20 minutes per session. For most patients, four sessions show optimal results.

What Are the Effects of EMFACE® on Wrinkle Reduction?

While you know that wrinkles come with age, are you aware of the combination of factors that cause them? Wrinkles happen with a decline in collagen and elastin, coupled with the way you naturally move your face.

So, throughout the aging process, your skin loses vital collagen and elastin, the very components that work together to keep your skin tight yet flexible. As this happens, your skin becomes looser and more susceptible to movement. With low elasticity, every frown, smile, and laugh will cause a crease, especially around your eyes, forehead, and mouth.

With the EMFACE® treatment, you can combat these wrinkles by addressing the main cause: collagen and elastin loss. The Sync RF energy warms your dermal tissues to 40 to 42 degrees Celsius to induce new collagen and elastin production and increase your skin’s elasticity.

What Are the Benefits of the EMFACE® Procedure?

EMFACE® offers a variety of aesthetic benefits, helping people transform their facial skin and feel like an improved version of themselves. 

The following are the biggest benefits that people report after completing an EMFACE® procedure:

· Reduces the appearance of facial aging

· Provides skin-lifting effects

· Non-invasive treatment

· Suitable for all skin types and tones

· No pain, recovery process, or downtime

However, another notable benefit of the EMFACE® treatment regimen is how effortless it is. Aesthetic specialists perform EMFACE® sessions in under half an hour before sending you back out to resume your normal activities!

Why Is EMFACE® a Good Alternative To Other Procedures?

When compared with other invasive and non-invasive treatments, EMFACE® sets itself apart. 

Surgical Face Lifts vs. EMFACE®

While the impact of EMFACE® on facial skin tightening isn’t as significant as a traditional surgical facelift, it’s an excellent alternative. Facelifts, blepharoplasty, and brow lifts are invasive and painful surgeries that require incisions along the hairline and around the ear, sometimes leading to visible scarring. EMFACE® involves no incisions, no risk of scarring, and absolutely no evidence of cosmetic work beyond a smoother, tighter facial appearance.

Another reason patients choose EMFACE® treatment over traditional facelift surgery is the recovery process. Facelifts involve several weeks of downtime and run the risk of complications.

Fillers vs. EMFACE®

Besides surgery, many people prefer filler injections to reduce their wrinkles. These same people are often surprised to learn that the results of EMFACE® on wrinkle reduction are just as pronounced as Botox. However, EMFACE® is a good alternative to Botox for the following reasons: 

· EMFACE® doesn’t involve any injections. 

· EMFACE® results last longer because of the ongoing collagen and elastin production, while Botox just subdues your facial movement for several months. 

· EMFACE® has a toning effect on facial muscle, while fillers don’t change the muscle tissue.

Some people choose dermal fillers for facial contouring, but EMFACE® presents an alternative here that stimulates muscle activity in the face for a lasting, sculpted facial appearance compared to filler injectables. 

EMFACE® on Facial Skin Tightening: Typical Results

To experience the full results from an EMFACE® treatment, experts recommend attending four separate 20-minute sessions with several weeks apart. Severe wrinkles may require additional sessions.

Once you’ve completed your initial round of treatment, you’ll see smoother, tighter skin with fewer wrinkles around the eyes, nose, and mouth. By the end, many people notice their crow’s feet, glabellar lines, and nasolabial folds disappearing and, thanks to the HIFES technology, firmer facial muscles. This leads to more prominent cheekbones and lifting effects along the forehead for some people.

How long will the results of your EMFACE® treatment last? Experts note about a year based on clinical trials. Many clients have two to three sessions a year for ongoing results.

To further maintain your results, facial care experts advise following a good skincare routine that facilitates skin health, including the following:

· Washing with a gentle cleanser

· Applying a nourishing moisturizer

· Applying sunscreen with at least SPF50 when spending time outdoors

Studies by BTL have shown a 30% improvement in muscle tone and a 23% lifting effect along the brows and cheeks.
