EMFACE is the first specialized facial skin treatment technology that combines thermal frequencies ( RF ) and electromagnetic pulses ( HIFES ).It aims to activate and strengthen facial muscles that are weakened with age without the need for surgery. With the aim of reducing wrinkles and fine lines in the skin and lifting and tightening the face naturally.
How the treatment process works
The therapist cleans and dries the face, then applies three adhesive bandages to the face, one to each cheek and one to the forehead. After the device is switched on, the patient feels the heat from the patches coming from the thermal radiofrequency ( RF ).It prepares tissues and initiates the process of stimulating the production of collagen protein and elastic fibers on the surface of the skin. The heat also acts like a facial muscle massage, stimulating blood flow to the skin. High-intensity focused electromagnetic wave (HIFES) technology lifts facial muscles, activates lazy muscles, restores their ability to contract, resists gravity, and ageing factors that cause muscle relaxation by increasing the density of the muscle structure in the treated area.
Advantages of EMFACE Therapy
- EMFACE is the first specialized facial technology that combines heat waves ( RF ) and high intensity electromagnetic waves ( HIFES ).
- EMFACE stands out from other technologies by being free of needles and resulting bruises.
- It is a safe non-surgical technique, as it avoids many of the risks that may occur when resorting to surgeries.
- EMFACE technology helps restore facial features without pain.
- The patient does not need a recovery period after the treatment session, and the patient can return to his activities directly.
- The EMFACE technology is based on producing natural results and is free from adding any materials.
- It is very suitable for people who do not want to inject Botox and other injection materials.
- Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and gives the patient smoother and firmer skin.
- EMFACE is safe for all skin types.
Top candidates for treatment with EMFACE
People can use EMFACE technology at different ages, but people between the ages of 30 and 55 are the most likely to benefit from treatment sessions. Skin begins to lose elastic proteins and fibers in this age group significantly. Muscle sagging and the process of falling eyebrows and cheeks begin to occur, in addition to the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, and the patient needs facial treatments to restore his youth and maintain his elegance.
People who are not candidates for treatment
- Doctors recommend not to undergo EM Face for patients with sheet metal or face implants. This is due to the interference between electromagnetic waves and metal, which will cause pain to the patient.
- People with infectious skin infections such as eczema and other diseases can undergo treatment after they have recovered from the infection.
- People with skin burns or sunburns.
- People with acne who can undergo treatment after being cured of the pills.
How many treatments?
Doctors recommend 4 treatment sessions in total, with each session separated by a week. This is to give your skin enough time to naturally build collagen protein and elastic tissue.
Doctors recommend a complete treatment series of 4 sessions each year, in order to maintain the results of the treatment and get a more youthful skin free of muscle sagging, wrinkles and fine lines and to keep the eyebrows high.
Duration of the treatment session
The treatment session does not take much time as the treating doctor needs only 20 minutes to complete the treatment session and then the patient can return to normal activities.
When do results begin to show
Results usually begin to show 4 to 6 weeks after the end of treatment sessions and the results continue to improve exponentially for 3 months as the patient gets the final results from the treatment.
How to prepare for an EMFACE session?
- Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated. Water molecules allow energy waves to travel easily, which affects the skin tightening process.
- Avoid taking anti-inflammatories for 3 days before your treatment session.
- Avoid attending a makeup or cream treatment session, as the therapist will cleanse the skin before starting the treatment session.
How does the patient feel during the treatment session?
Once the EMFACE is switched on, the patient feels the warmth and heat generated by the radiofrequency ( RF ) with light pulses and some muscle contractions. The patient can feel the bandages pulling and lifting the forehead and cheeks up without pain.
After EMFACE Therapy Session
The patient usually feels tightness in the face and skin as it becomes more durable and lifted upward. In addition, the skin acquires red color as a result of exposure to heat, which quickly returns to its normal color in several minutes after removing the patches.
Which parts are most affected by EMFACE treatment?
The EMFACE technique works to lift the face in general and usually the bulk of the effect appears clearly on the eyebrows, cheeks, corners of the mouth and jawline, where the patient will notice the rise of the eyebrows and cheeks up and the treatment of wrinkles and sagging around the mouth and the appearance of the jawline better than before as a result of increased muscle density and tightening of the skin.
What is the difference between EMFACE and Cosmetic Injections
Injections are used to get rid of wrinkles and sagging skin by performing a continuous process of muscle contraction as a result of being paralyzed, as happens in Botox injections, while EMFACE technology stimulates the production of collagen and elastin proteins naturally in the skin. EMFACE technology is safer, as Botox can move from its place when the injected areas are pressed in the first hours after injection, unlike EMFACE technology, which relies on natural stimulation to build proteins and muscles.
Cosmetic injections give quick results and their duration varies, often up to 6 months, unlike the EMFACE technique, which takes several weeks to notice results. EMFACE results peak approximately 90 days after the last session and continue to improve over time. Thanks to the natural growth process of cells and tissues, which lasts for longer periods of up to a year.
It is also possible to combine EMFACE with Botox after two weeks of Botox injections, making sure that the skin is free of bruises and that there is no pain as a result of the injection process.
Can EMFACE be integrated with other therapeutic technologies?
Yes, EMFACE can be combined with other therapeutic techniques within a holistic treatment plan proposed by the doctor and according to the results you wish to obtain, as it can be combined with Exilis, Cool Mini and Thermage Total of America to treat the lower face and get rid of the double chin, or with micronidling techniques such as Morpheus 8 to tighten sagging and get rid of signs of aging and aging, and other therapeutic devices and techniques.
