Emface
EMFACE combines Synchronized RF and HIFESTM technologies to firm the framework of your face.
EMFACE combines Synchronized RF and HIFES™ technologies to firm the framework of your face.
RF heating remodels & smooths the skin by increasing the levels of collagen and elastin fibres. HIFES™ selectively tones the face-elevating muscles to restore and elevate support of facial features.
The combined effect of skin remodelling with muscle toning helps to reduce facial wrinkles and give a more lifted, smoother appearance for the face.

You will be asked to remove all metallic accessories and electronic devices, and the treated area will be cleansed before the procedure to remove any moisture, perfume, moisturizers, or oils.
During the Treatment
What does the treatment feel like?
Treatments are non-invasive and comfortable. You will lay down and relax while the EMFACE applicators are applied over the treatment areas for 20 minutes. During the treatment you will feel muscle contractions along with a heating sensation which is comparable to hot stone massage.
