What Is EMFACE?
EMFACE is an FDA-cleared non-invasive treatment developed by BTL Aesthetics that simultaneously targets facial muscles and skin in a single comfortable session. What makes it a natural fit in a dental practice is its FDA clearance for TMJ dysfunction, one of the few aesthetic treatments with a genuine therapeutic application for jaw health.
For patients who have invested in cosmetic or restorative dental work, EMFACE takes results further by toning the muscles and tightening the skin that frame that smile. It is needle-free, requires no recovery, and results develop gradually so nobody can tell you had anything done.
How Does EMFACE Work?
EMFACE delivers two types of energy simultaneously during each 20-minute session. Radiofrequency energy heats the deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production from within. Skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more resilient over time as the body responds to treatment.
At the same time, HIFES technology selectively contracts and re-educates the facial muscles, including those involved in jaw function. This targeted stimulation can help relieve muscle spasms, reduce tension, and improve jaw range of motion for patients dealing with TMJ discomfort.
It also builds the muscle tone responsible for natural facial lift and definition, making it equally valuable as an aesthetic treatment.

Concerns EMFACE Can Address
What to Expect With EMFACE
Consultation
Before any treatment is scheduled, Dr. Wassif sits down with you to review your dental history, discuss your jaw health and aesthetic goals, and confirm whether EMFACE is the right fit. For patients already being treated for TMJ or bruxism, she factors that into the plan to make sure everything works together.
Treatment Process
Each session takes about 20 minutes and requires no preparation or anesthesia. Dedicated applicators are placed on the face and deliver radiofrequency and HIFES energy simultaneously, producing a sensation most patients describe as gentle warmth and mild muscle contractions. A full treatment protocol typically involves 4 sessions spaced one week apart, with results continuing to develop in the weeks following the final session.
After Your Session
EMFACE requires no downtime. Most patients head straight back to work, errands, or their normal routine immediately after. Some mild redness or warmth may appear in the treatment area but typically clears within a few hours. Dr. Wassif will walk you through any specific aftercare recommendations based on your individual treatment plan.
EMFACE Results
Changes develop gradually as the body responds to radiofrequency and muscle stimulation over time. For patients seeking jaw tension relief, improvements in muscle tone and reduced discomfort may be noticed after the first few sessions. Most patients also begin noticing improvements in skin firmness and facial definition within a few weeks of completing their series, with continued progress over the following months as collagen production increases. Individual results may vary.
Clinical studies show an average 37% reduction in wrinkles, 26% increase in collagen, and 23% improvement in facial lift. Because EMFACE works by stimulating the body’s own natural processes, everything looks like you, only lifted and refreshed. With proper maintenance, improvements typically last one year or longer.
Is EMFACE Right for You?
EMFACE is a good fit for dental patients looking to address jaw tension, TMJ discomfort, or facial muscle fatigue alongside the visible signs of aging. It may be right for you if you are experiencing any of the following:
- Jaw tension, TMJ discomfort, or facial muscle fatigue
- Bruxism or clenching that leaves your jaw feeling sore or tight
- Softening of facial contours or loss of lift in the cheeks and jawline
- Fine lines and wrinkles across the forehead, around the eyes, or along the cheeks
- A desire for natural-looking rejuvenation without needles or downtime
- Interest in complementing existing dental work with improved facial aesthetics
EMFACE is also an excellent preventative treatment for younger patients who want to maintain facial tone and slow the visible signs of aging before they become more pronounced. Dr. Wassif will assess your concerns and confirm whether EMFACE is appropriate for your goals and health history during your consultation.

EMFACE FAQs
Where can I get EMFACE near me in Middle River, MD?

Does EMFACE hurt?
Can EMFACE be combined with EXION or EXION Clear RF?
