The newer Emface Sumbentum applicator has been shown to reduce fat in the double-chin area by more than 30% in clinical studies.*The facial rejuvenation results with EMFACE have been validated in over 9 clinical studies thus far with more on the way. Studies show that EMFACE reduces wrinkles by 37%. The reduction in wrinkles occurs because of production of collagen and elastin. In studies EMFACE also increased muscle tone by 30% leading to a 23% lift of the face.
Benefits of Emface
As we age there are two factors that contribute to wrinkled and sagging skin.
1) We lose collagen and elastin in our skin, making our skin less tight. This causes wrinkles and fine lines to form throughout the skin.
2) We lose muscle and bone volume leading to our skin drooping and sagging. This produces skin folds.
A Rejuvenated Appearance That Looks Completely Natural
Emface is a device that truly has the potential to revolutionize facial aesthetics. Because EMFACE works on your muscle structure, the lift and improved contouring results will be completely natural. And because the RF energy produces both elastin and collagen the skin texture improvement is completely natural as well.
Benefits of Treatment Car Include:
- A reduction in wrinkles in the forehead and cheeks
- A lift of the brow area and mid to lower face
- Reduction of double-chin and contouring of jaw line
How does Emface work?
Emface Technology - Needle Free Treatment
Emface uses two technologies simultaneously to naturally treat BOTH aspects of facial aging. Radiofrequency (RF) energy is delivered to the skin to induce skin rejuvenation through the production of collagen and elastin. At the same time, high-intensity facial electrical stimulation (HIFES) restores muscle tone in key muscles of the forehead and cheeks to lift the face in a natural way.
The newer Emface Submentum applicator uses a new delivery mechanism of RF called RF+ to not only rejuvenate the skin, but to also produce significant reduction in fat in the double-chin area.
EMFACE is a highly effective facial rejuvenation treatment that is completely comfortable and needle-free treatment with zero downtime. In just four 20-minute treatments, patients experience improvement in skin laxity, a decrease in wrinkles, and increased tone and lift in the face. EMFACE is proven technology that is a great alternative for patients hoping to avoid procedures such as cheek fillers or more invasive treatment.
Emface treatments can also be used in combination with injectables and other devices used in facial aesthetics to produce even more impressive results.
Facial Toning Treatment Without Surgery or Facial Injectables
Emface uses HIFES technology to tone facial muscles including the frontalis, zygomaticus major, zygomaticus minor, and risorius. The increase in tone in underlying facial muscles produces a youthful appearance by producing a completely natural-appearing lift and contouring the face and jaw line. As there is only an improvement in your underlying muscles, there is no risk of the procedure producing an unnatural appearance as it may with some injectables such as poorly done cheek filler.
- Emface was shown to increase muscle tone 30% in targeted facial muscles
- The increase in muscles tone leads to 23% more lift in the face
- 92.8% of patients reported improved volume in hollow facial areas
- Emface has been shown to lift the brows
- The lifting of the face also leads to sculpting of the jawline
Decreasing Wrinkles Without Downtime
The EMFACE applicators also deliver RF technology to the cheeks and forehead to gently heat the skin, activating our body's pathway responsible for producing both elastin and collagen. We love RF facial treatments because they tighten skin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and produce a glow and attractive skin tone with zero downtime and no pain (just a gentle warm sensation).
- Studies with Emface show it produces 37% fewer wrinkles
- Studies show a more than 100% increase in elastin
- Emface produces a 26% increase in collagen production
- Emface treatment can tighten skin, and help patients achieve a smoother and more youthful skin tone
What are treatments like?
Emface treatments are safe, effective and easy to undergo. Applicators are place on the cheeks and either the forehead or the double-chin area as per the patient's preference and needs.
Treatments take 20 minutes. A typical treatment course is 4 treatments one week apart. There is no downtime. There is no pain associated with Emface treatments. Patients completing the treatment at The Dermatology and Laser Group most often report that treatments feel like an intense workout for the face.
Potential Adverse Effects with Emface
Emface is very well tolerated by all patients. Some patients are slightly pink in the treated areas, but this typically resolves within several minutes. Some patients experience muscular fatigue and soreness in the areas treated for a few days.
Emface Submentum Double-Chin Treatment
EMFACE Submentum treatment is the first and only solution to treat the double chin area by targeting every layer from the muscle to the skin. In four 20-minute treatments, this special Emface applicator will tighten the digastric muscle, reduce fat by 31-35%, and rejuvenate the overlying skin.
EMFACE Submentum Double Chin treatment uses RF+ which is unique to treatment in this area. Used in this area only, the RF+ reaches higher temperatures and pushes the RF energy deeper into the fat layer, decreasing fat, while also generating collagen and elastin in the skin. This is in contrast to regular EMFACE treatments where the RF energy focuses lower energies on the skin only, avoiding any effects on the fat.
All of these benefits come with no surgery, no needles, no bruising, and no downtime.
In our opinion, EMFACE Submentum is the best non-invasive treatment for double-chin available on the market today.
