What areas can EMFACE treatments target?

EMFACE is currently capable of treating three areas of the face: the forehead and both cheeks. There is also a submentum applicator for treating the area under the chin. The EMFACE Submentum helps address concerns like double chin and jawline definition.

Not at all! The treatment is completely painless and non-invasive. You may feel a slight warming sensation during the treatment, but this is completely normal and nothing to worry about. As for the facial muscle stimulation, it feels like a gentle massage.

Is there any downtime?

The EMFACE treatment is designed to have ZERO downtime. You can resume your daily activities immediately after the treatment. You may experience some redness on the treated areas, but this will subside within a few hours.

How long till you can see results?

EMFACE is a gradual process. Whilst many customers may often see some immediate results following their first treatment, the recommended minimum treatment course is 4 sessions with 1 session every 1-2 weeks. The results will continue to improve over the next 2-3 months following the treatment course.

How much does EMFACE cost in Sydney?

EMFACE treatment pricing in Sydney typically ranges from $800 to $1,500 per session, with package deals available for the recommended 4-session course. The exact cost depends on the treatment areas and your personalised plan. We offer complimentary consultations where we can provide a detailed quote based on your specific goals.

What is the difference between EMFACE and Thermage?

EMFACE and Thermage are both non-invasive facial treatments, but they work differently. EMFACE uniquely combines radiofrequency with electrical muscle stimulation (HIFES) to simultaneously tighten skin and tone facial muscles. Thermage uses radiofrequency alone to stimulate collagen for skin tightening. EMFACE is particularly effective for lifting and muscle definition, while Thermage excels at overall skin tightening. Some patients benefit from combining both treatments—we can discuss the best approach during your consultation.

How does EMFACE compare to Botox and fillers?

EMFACE offers a different approach to facial rejuvenation compared to injectables. While Botox relaxes muscles to reduce wrinkles and fillers add volume, EMFACE actually strengthens and tones facial muscles while stimulating collagen production. This creates a natural lifting effect without needles or adding foreign substances. Many patients use EMFACE as an alternative to injectables, while others combine them for comprehensive results. Your practitioner can advise on the best approach for your goals.

What age is best to start EMFACE treatments?

EMFACE is suitable for adults typically from their late 20s onwards. Patients in their 30s-40s often use it preventatively to maintain facial muscle tone and skin firmness, while those in their 50s and beyond appreciate it as a non-surgical lifting solution. The ideal timing depends on your individual concerns rather than age alone—during your consultation, we can assess whether EMFACE suits your current needs.

How many EMFACE sessions do I need?

The standard EMFACE protocol is 4 treatments scheduled 1-2 weeks apart. Clinical studies show optimal results with this protocol, with improvements continuing for 2-3 months after completing the course. Some patients may benefit from additional sessions depending on their goals. Maintenance treatments are typically recommended every 6-12 months to sustain results.

Can EMFACE help with jowls and sagging cheeks?

Yes, EMFACE is particularly effective for addressing jowls and sagging cheeks. The treatment works by simultaneously tightening the skin through radiofrequency heating and strengthening the underlying facial muscles through electrical stimulation. This dual action helps lift and define the lower face, creating a more contoured appearance. Clinical studies show an average 30% increase in muscle tone and 26% increase in collagen.

Is EMFACE safe? Are there any side effects?

EMFACE is FDA-cleared and has an excellent safety profile. The treatment is non-invasive with no needles, incisions, or anaesthesia required. Possible temporary side effects include mild redness or warmth in the treated area, which typically resolves within a few hours. There are no reported serious adverse events in clinical studies. We'll review your medical history during your consultation to ensure EMFACE is appropriate for you.

How long does an EMFACE session take?

Each EMFACE session takes approximately 20 minutes—often called a 'lunchtime treatment' because it fits easily into a busy schedule. There's no preparation needed beforehand and no recovery time afterwards, so you can return immediately to your normal activities, including work, exercise, and social events.

How long do EMFACE results last?

Results from a full EMFACE treatment course typically last 6-12 months, depending on individual factors like age, lifestyle, and skin condition. The muscle strengthening and collagen stimulation produce real, lasting changes, but natural ageing continues over time. Most patients maintain their results with periodic maintenance sessions every 6-12 months.

Can I combine EMFACE with other treatments?

Absolutely. EMFACE complements many other aesthetic treatments. It pairs well with Thermage or Ultherapy for enhanced skin tightening, with laser treatments for skin texture improvement, and can even be used alongside injectables for comprehensive facial rejuvenation. Our practitioners can create a customised treatment plan that addresses all your concerns effectively.

Who is not suitable for EMFACE?

EMFACE is not recommended for those who are pregnant, have electronic implants such as pacemakers or defibrillators, have metal implants in the face, or have active skin conditions in the treatment area. Certain medical conditions may also affect suitability. During your complimentary consultation, we'll review your medical history to ensure EMFACE is safe and appropriate for you.

What does EMFACE feel like during treatment?

During EMFACE treatment, you'll feel two distinct sensations: a gentle warming from the radiofrequency energy and rhythmic muscle contractions from the electrical stimulation. Most patients describe the experience as unusual but comfortable—similar to a facial workout combined with a warm massage. The intensity can be adjusted to your comfort level throughout the treatment.

The Treatment

What is EMFACE?

Brought to you by BTL Aesthetics, the company behind the revolutionary Emsculpt and Emsella treatments is their latest innovation called EMFACE.

It is a non-invasive facial treatment which uses synchronised radiofrequency (RF) and high-intensity facial electromagnetic stimulation (HIFES) energies to tone the facial muscles and tighten the skin.

This in turn stimulates collagen growth and strengthening of the facial muscles. The end result is a lifted, slimmer and contoured appearance of the face. It truly is the first treatment of its kind on the market.

Why EMFACE

No Needles, No Downtime,
No Surgery

Unlike other non-invasive facial lifting treatments, EMFACE requires no needles to be inserted into the skin. This means that there is no downtime and no risk of infection. It is also a non-surgical treatment, so you can avoid the risks associated with surgery.

Where We Treat

EMFACE Treatment Areas

EMFACE treatments can be applied to different areas across the face. Currently there are three applicators, one for the forehead and two for the sides of the face. The applicators are designed to target the muscles in the face and stimulate collagen growth.

When undergoing treatment, each applicator will heat the skin to a soothing temperature of 40 degrees. This is the RF portion of the treatment which applies volumetric heating to the deep layers of the skin. The HIFES portion of the treatment will periodically contract the facial muscles, which feels like a gentle massage.

There is also a new submentum applicator for treating the area under the chin, further enhancing the total effect of this treatment.
