Introduction
Facial skincare is a crucial aspect of current cosmetic treatments. Many people suffer from a lack of defined contours, sagging, and a lack of volume, making skin tightening a highly sought-after treatment. Common skin tightening treatment devices include Thermage, HIFU, Ulthera, radio frequency, etc., but a new technology is becoming popular in the market: EMface machine skin tightening.
So what are the results of EMface skin tightening treatment? Are there significant changes in before-and-after photos? Is it truly effective? This article will discuss how EMface works, the before-and-after treatment process, and its indications, contraindications, and precautions.
What is EMface Treatment?
EMFACE is the world’s first device that can simultaneously address both muscle and facial skin concerns, lifting muscles, strengthening fascia, firming contours, and reducing wrinkles. EMFACE treatment is non-invasive and additive-free. Using high-energy focused electromagnetic fields and monopolar radiofrequency technology, it simultaneously targets facial muscles and skin, stimulating muscle contraction and promoting collagen regeneration to achieve firming and lifting effects, improve wrinkle appearance, and restore skin elasticity.
How Does EMface Work?
High-intensity focused electric fields stimulate facial muscles, causing super-strong contractions, improving facial muscle density and reshaping muscle groups and connective tissue. During facial treatments, pulsed muscle contractions are applied simultaneously to four areas, such as the forehead or cheek muscles. A single facial treatment generates approximately 25,000 magnetic pulses, triggering muscle contractions. It can be completed in 20 minutes.
Synchronously transmitting monopolar radiofrequency heats the dermis and subcutaneous tissue evenly, minimizing the risk of wrinkles and smoothing the skin by promoting the production of collagen and elastin fibers. This approach achieves virtually painless, deep-seated facial anti-aging treatments, allowing the entire face to be treated in just 20 minutes.
Pre-treatment Preparation
1. Skin Cleansing
Before treatment, thoroughly cleanse your face to avoid any residual makeup or dirt that could affect the treatment’s effectiveness. It’s recommended to use a gentle cleanser the day before surgery. Avoid using abrasive cleansers to prevent skin damage.
2. Avoid Sun Exposure
Avoid direct sunlight for 3-4 weeks before treatment to minimize UV irritation. UV rays can increase pigmentation and affect the effectiveness of laser treatment. If you need to go outdoors, be sure to use a high-factor sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and wear a wide-brimmed hat or umbrella.
3. Stop Using Irritating Skincare Products
Avoid using skincare products containing irritating ingredients such as glycolic acid and salicylic acid during the week before treatment. These ingredients may increase skin sensitivity and increase the risk of postoperative skin discomfort.
4. Dietary Adjustments
Avoid eating a light diet and avoid spicy and greasy foods. Quit smoking and limit alcohol consumption. Spicy and greasy foods may cause skin allergies or inflammation, potentially affecting the effectiveness of the procedure. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and getting enough sleep will also aid skin recovery.
5. Psychological Expectations
Communicate fully with your doctor to understand the treatment plan and potential risks, ensuring you have a clear understanding of the treatment outcomes. A positive mental state will facilitate a smooth surgery and postoperative recovery.
Post-treatment Care
1. Immediately After Treatment
Cold Compress: Apply a cold compress for 15-30 minutes immediately after treatment to relieve redness, swelling, and burning sensation. You can use an ice pack or a chilled towel, but be careful not to contact the skin directly to avoid frostbite.
Moisturizing and Repairing: Use a gentle moisturizer, such as a medical repair mask, to promote skin repair. It’s recommended to choose a non-irritating, simple moisturizer to avoid adding extra stress to the skin.
2. One Week After Treatment
Avoid Water: Avoid water exposure for 24 hours after treatment. Gently cleanse your face afterwards. Wash your face with warm water and avoid rubbing it vigorously.
Strictly Protect Your Skin from the Sun: Use a high-factor sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) and wear a hat or use an umbrella when going out. Ultraviolet rays are one of the main causes of hyperpigmentation, and after treatment, your skin becomes more sensitive to UV rays, so sun protection is crucial.
Avoid Makeup: Avoid makeup for one week after treatment, and avoid using alcohol-based skincare products. The chemicals in cosmetics may irritate the skin and hinder recovery.
Light Diet: Avoid spicy, greasy, and photosensitive foods (such as celery and cilantro). Eat more foods rich in vitamin C. Vitamin C helps with antioxidants, repairs the skin, and promotes recovery.
3. Long-Term Care
Continuous Sun Protection: Strictly avoid the sun for 3 months after surgery to prevent UV rays from causing hyperpigmentation. Even indoors, it is recommended to use sunscreen, as UV rays can penetrate glass and reach the skin.
Regular Checkups: Follow up 1-2 weeks after surgery. See a doctor promptly if any abnormalities are detected. Checkups help doctors identify and address potential problems promptly.
Whitening and Maintenance: Use products with whitening ingredients to prevent recurrence of dark spots. It is recommended to choose a whitening serum containing ingredients such as tranexamic acid and vitamin C derivatives to help inhibit melanin formation.
EMface Before and After Results
This is the before and after photo of EMface treatment. The difference after 4 sessions is huge!
Before treatment, the patient had nasolabial folds, depressed cheeks, and sunken cheeks. Facial contours were unclear, and the skin was severely sagging.
After a face-to-face consultation with the doctor, the final treatment plan was: face lift + fat sculpting. This can improve the overall facial nasolabial folds, sagging and depression problems and restore facial youthfulness.
After EMface treatment, the patient’s face became smaller, the overall sagging has been improved, the nasolabial folds, depressions, and unclear contours have been improved, the face is fuller and more natural, the facial contours are clearly visible, and the skin is smooth, delicate and firm. The treatment results are very successful.
EMface Treatment Effects
- Wrinkle Reduction: Radiofrequency energy stimulates collagen and elastin production, effectively reducing fine lines and wrinkles.
- Facial Contour Enhancement: By stimulating facial muscle contraction and strengthening facial muscle tone, the face is naturally lifted.
- Skin Tightening: Radiofrequency energy heats the dermis, promoting collagen regeneration for a firmer, smoother complexion.
- Improving Skin Texture: Long-term use can improve uneven skin tone, erythema, acne, and other issues, resulting in healthier, more radiant skin.

FAQs About EMface Treatment
Q1: What’s the difference between EMFACE and other anti-aging treatments like Thermage and HIFU?
Thermage and HIFU both act on the skin, while EMFACE works on the muscle layer.
Q2: Can the EMface be used with other anti-aging lasers?
Yes, it can be used in combination. Skin aging is a multifaceted problem, affecting multiple layers from the epidermis to the fascia. To address different levels of anti-aging needs, we should address the epidermis, muscle, and bone layers, achieving a multi-dimensional treatment. The EMface can be used in combination with other lasers.
Q3: How long do the effects of EMFACE treatment last? How long should I wait for a second treatment?
After 4 sessions of EMface treatment, the facial skin tightening results can last for about 1 year. The recovery period of EMface is about 2 to 3 months, and a new course of treatment can be started after 2 months.
Q4: Is it normal to feel different sensations on both sides of my face during treatment? Will this affect the results?
The bones and muscles on each side of the cheek may not align perfectly, leading to different muscle contractions. This is normal. Since the EMface stimulates the muscles with the same force, any differences in sensation will not affect the final results.
Q5: Will frequent EMFACE treatments cause facial muscles to grow larger?
No. EMFACE restores the density of thinned muscle fibers, restoring the supporting strength of the facial muscles. It does not indefinitely increase the number of muscle fibers, causing the facial muscles to continue to grow in size.
Q6: How can I purchase a high-quality EMface machine?
If you’re looking for a high-quality EMface machine at a reasonable price, Liton Laser is the right choice. As a cosmetic equipment manufacturer with 24 years of experience, they maintain stringent quality standards and offer competitive prices.
