About the treatment
Emface applies radiofrequency and facial muscle stimulation at the same time to work on skin and the lifting muscles beneath it.
Emface is the facial treatment in the BTL family that works on muscle as well as skin. Small pads sit on the forehead and cheeks. They deliver synchronized radiofrequency, which warms the skin and supports collagen, and electrical stimulation that contracts the facial muscles that lift. Nothing pierces the skin.
A session lasts about twenty minutes. A standard plan is four sessions, spaced about a week apart. You feel warmth and a fluttering pull as the muscles contract. You can put makeup on and go straight back to your day.
Emface suits people who want a lifted, rested look without injectables, or who want to support the results they already have. Candidacy and expectations are set at a consultation with Dr. Olivo.

Emface, answered
Does Emface replace Botox Cosmetic or fillers?
No. It works differently, on skin quality and muscle tone. Many people combine them. Dr. Olivo will tell you what fits your face.
Does it hurt?
No. You feel warmth and muscle contractions. Intensity is adjusted to you.
How many sessions?
Four, about a week apart, is standard. Some people return for maintenance later.
Is there any downtime?
None. Skin may look slightly flushed for a short time. You can apply makeup right after.
