WHAT IS EMFACE™ BY BTL?

Emface is a revolutionary non-invasive facial treatment that uses a combination of synchronized RF (radio frequency) and HIFES (High-Intensity Focused Electrical Stimulation) to simultaneously lift and tone the facial muscles while improving skin texture and tightness. Emface stimulates collagen and elastin production, resulting in a more youthful appearance without the need for injections or surgery. It is designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin by improving muscle tone and skin health.

  • The treatment will take approximately 20-30 minutes, depending on the area being treated.
  • There is no downtime, and you can resume normal activities immediately after the treatment.
  • Post-treatment, you may experience mild redness or warmth in the treated area, which usually subsides within a few hours.
