What Is EMFACE?

EMFACE is a needle-free facial rejuvenation treatment that works on two levels at the same time:

  • Facial muscles – to improve tone and lift
  • Skin and connective tissue – to enhance firmness and elasticity

It combines:

  • High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation (HIFES™) to strengthen facial muscles
  • Synchronized radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen and tighten skin

This dual-action approach makes EMFACE different from traditional laser or RF-only treatments.

Why EMFACE Is Popular in Seoul

Seoul’s aesthetic trend focuses on natural-looking lifting, sharp facial lines, and minimal intervention.

Key reasons EMFACE is widely chosen

  • No needles or injections
  • No facial volume changes
  • Preserves natural facial expressions
  • Zero downtime
  • Suitable for preventive anti-aging

How EMFACE Works

EMFACE targets both muscle structure and skin quality.

Facial Muscle Stimulation

  • Induces strong, involuntary muscle contractions
  • Strengthens key facial support muscles
  • Improves lift and facial definition

Radiofrequency Skin Tightening

  • Gently heats the dermal layers
  • Stimulates collagen and elastin production
  • Improves skin firmness and texture

Together, these effects lead to a lifted, firmer, and more defined appearance.

Areas Commonly Treated with EMFACE

Upper Face

  • Forehead lifting
  • Brow elevation
  • Smoother forehead lines

Lower Face & Jawline

  • Jawline definition
  • Lower face tightening
  • Early sagging improvement

EMFACE is often chosen for early facial sagging and contour softening.
