Learn about EMFACE treatment at The Dermatology and Laser Group. We discuss the how the EMFACE device works, benefits of EMFACE treatment, and potential side effects. We also discuss the EMFACE Submentum double chin treatment. Finally we discuss why we believe The Dermatology and Laser Group is the best location for treatment with EMFACE in NYC.
What Is 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.
Emface uses two technologies simultaneously to naturally treat BOTH aspects of facial aging. Radiofrequecy (RF) energy is delivered to the skin to induce skin rejuvenation through 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.
Benefits of EMFACE
*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.
EMFACE Technology - Needle Free Treatment
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, decrease of 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 - Lifting 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 a 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 bodies 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 downtime (just a gentle warm sensation).
- Studies with Emface show it produces 37% fewer wrinkles
- Studies show more than 100% increase in elastin
- Emface produces a 26% increase in collagen production
- Emface treatment can tighten skin, and help patients achieve a smother and more youthful skin tone
EMFACE Submentum Treatment: Reduce Your Double Chin
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+ that is unique to treatment in this area. Used in this area only, the RF+ reaches higher temperatures and pushes the RF energy deeper to 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.
Side Effects of EMFACE
Despite the amazing results with Emface treatments there is really no downtime at all. Swelling, redness, or bruising are not common after the procedure. The areas treated with RF technology can be mildly warm and pink for several minutes after the procedure. There is a theoretical risk of a minor burn.
Rejuvenated Appearance That Looks Completely Natural
Emface is a device that truly has the potential for revolutionizing facial aesthetics. Because EMFACE works on your own 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 are completely natural as well.
EMFACE - The Perfect Treatment for The NYC Aesthetic
In many ways Emface is the perfect technology for facial rejuvenation in New York City. Out of all our facial treatments, Emface treatment is the only procedure that treats both the elastin/collagen loss that happens with the aging process as well the volume loss that causes sagging. New Yorkers have busy lives with limited free time and it is not surprising how popular EMFACE is given that it can improve both facial skin and facial features in four 20-minute treatments with no downtime. These features have also made Emface very popular with our celebrity clientele.
Emface treatments are great combination treatments that target facial tissues from the surface down to the muscle. This proven technology smooths skin and produces skin tightening. By targeting elevator muscles, Emface sessions have contouring power that can lift the forehead and brows and lift the lower face to improve facial definition and contouring. And the best part is that the results are completely natural. With patients favoring a natural appearing aesthetic in our city, it is no wonder that Emface is becoming so popular in NYC.
