EMFACE Facial Lifting & Toning in Denver & Alamosa

At a Glance
The Dual Technology That Rebuilds Your Face From Within
EMFACE is a revolutionary facial lifting and toning device that combines two powerful technologies: synchronized RF (radiofrequency) heating and HIFES (High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation).
Unlike treatments that address only surface skin or only facial muscles, EMFACE is the first and only device that simultaneously treats both facial skin and underlying muscle — addressing the two primary causes of facial aging in a single treatment.
Results based on clinical studies with multiple treatment sessions. Individual results vary.
Two Technologies Working Together
Facial aging isn't one problem — it's two. Skin loses elasticity AND facial muscles lose volume. EMFACE addresses both simultaneously, which is why results look natural instead of frozen or overfilled.
Synchronized Radiofrequency (RF)
What it does: RF energy heats the deepest layers of skin (dermis) to 40–42°C, triggering collagen denaturation and remodeling. This naturally stimulates new collagen and elastin production over time.
HIFES Electrical Stimulation
What it does: High-intensity focused electrical stimulation contracts facial muscles, mimicking the natural contractions that keep facial muscles toned. This rebuilds muscle volume and restores lift.
Why both matter: Botox and fillers mask the signs of aging — Botox paralyzes muscles, fillers add volume artificially. EMFACE solves the underlying problem by rebuilding natural structure from within. The result is a naturally rejuvenated face that looks like a better version of you, not someone else.
What EMFACE Treats
EMFACE delivers transformative results across the entire face and neck. Here's what it can do for each area.
Forehead
Lifts drooping eyebrows, smooths horizontal lines, restores the lifted arch that defines a younger face.
Cheeks
Restores lost volume, lifts sagging cheeks, enhances cheekbone definition, and improves overall facial contours.
Jawline & Chin
Tightens and defines the jawline, reduces jowls, sharpens the chin, and creates a more sculpted appearance.
Periorbital (Eyes)
Reduces crow's feet, lifts the upper eyelid area, softens under-eye lines, and brightens the eye zone.
Neck
Tightens loose neck skin, reduces neck lines, restores definition, and creates a more sculpted neck-to-jaw transition.
Full Face Lift Effect
When combining multiple areas, EMFACE delivers an overall facial lift and rejuvenation that looks natural and refreshed.

EMFACE FAQs
No. EMFACE is painless. You feel gentle RF warmth (similar to a warm massage) and mild electrical pulses (like a light tingling sensation). Many patients find the treatment relaxing and fall asleep during sessions. No numbing cream or anesthesia is needed.
The recommended protocol is 4 sessions, typically scheduled 1 week apart. Most patients see visible results after the first session, with optimal results achieved after all 4 sessions. Results continue to improve for 12 weeks post-treatment. Maintenance sessions (1–2 per year) help sustain long-term results.
Each EMFACE treatment takes approximately 20 minutes. It's quick, convenient, and fits easily into a busy schedule. You can return to work, exercise, or any activity immediately afterward.
Many patients notice visible lifting and skin glow within hours to 1 week after the first session. Results continue to improve progressively over the following weeks as collagen remodels and facial muscles strengthen. Optimal results are typically seen 12 weeks after completing the 4-session protocol.
No downtime whatsoever. Most patients experience zero redness, bruising, or irritation. Your skin may appear slightly flushed immediately after treatment (from the RF heating), but this subsides within minutes to hours. You can apply makeup, exercise, and resume all normal activities immediately.
Results from a 4-session protocol typically last 6–12 months with proper skincare and sun protection. To maintain results, we recommend 1–2 maintenance sessions per year. The more consistently you maintain EMFACE treatments, the longer-lasting and more dramatic your results become.
