What to Expect From EMFACE®: Results Timeline, Sensations, and Treatment Experience

Summary Content

Choosing a non-invasive facial treatment often comes with one big question: what will it actually feel like, and when will I see results? EMFACE® is designed to be comfortable, efficient, and natural-looking but understanding the treatment experience and results timeline can help you decide if it’s right for you.

At Rejuvenation Dermatology, EMFACE® is performed by experienced medical professionals who tailor each treatment to your facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. Here’s exactly what you can expect before, during, and after your EMFACE® sessions.

 

If EMFACE Right For You?

Before Your EMFACE® Treatment: The Consultation


Your journey begins with a personalized consultation. Your provider will assess:

  • Facial muscle tone
  • Skin laxity and elasticity
  • Areas of concern such as forehead lines, cheek softening, or sagging

Because EMFACE® works by strengthening muscles and improving skin quality, not adding volume or freezing movement, this assessment is key to setting realistic expectations and creating a customized treatment plan.

 

During the Treatment: What Does EMFACE® Feel Like?


An EMFACE® session typically lasts about 20 minutes and requires no numbing, injections, or downtime.


What You’ll Feel:

  • A gentle warming sensation from the radiofrequency energy stimulating collagen and elastin
  • Rhythmic muscle contractions as HIFES™ technology activates key facial muscles.

Most patients describe the sensation as unusual but comfortable. The muscle contractions are intentional, they indicate the muscles are being engaged and strengthened. Treatments are well tolerated, and intensity can be adjusted for comfort.

 

After Treatment: Immediate Recovery


There is no downtime after EMFACE®. You can return to work, social activities, or exercise immediately. Some patients experience mild redness, warmth, or muscle fatigue, but these effects typically resolve quickly.

 

EMFACE® Results Timeline: When Will You See Changes?


EMFACE® delivers gradual, natural-looking improvements, not instant or exaggerated changes.
Short-Term:

  • Subtle firmness or muscle activation may be noticed within the first few weeks
  • Skin may feel slightly tighter or smoother early on

Mid-Term (4–6 Weeks)

  • Improved facial tone and contour become more visible
  • Skin texture and elasticity continue to improve as collagen production increases

Long-Term (8–12 Weeks and Beyond)

  • Optimal results appear as muscles strengthen and skin rebuilds support
  • Facial lift looks natural, balanced, and refreshed, not artificial
  • Most patients complete a series of treatments as recommended by their provider to achieve optimal outcomes.

FAQs

EMFACE is a non-invasive facial treatment that combines radiofrequency energy with synchronized facial muscle stimulation to improve skin firmness and strengthen underlying facial muscles. It works by stimulating collagen and elastin production while toning the muscles that support facial contours, helping to lift, smooth, and rejuvenate the face naturally.

Most patients benefit from a short series of treatments, typically performed over several weeks. Your provider will create a personalized plan based on your skin condition and aesthetic goals. Results continue to improve as collagen production increases and facial muscles become more toned.

Some patients notice early firmness, but optimal results develop gradually over several weeks as collagen production increases and facial muscles strengthen.
