EMFACE by BTL: Lift, Smooth and Firm Without Injections
If you want a more lifted, toned, and youthful-looking appearance without injections or surgery, EMFACE by BTL offers a unique approach to facial rejuvenation. Now available exclusively in Oxford, MS at Revive Wellness, EMFACE combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with HIFES™ technology to target both the skin and underlying facial muscles.
Unlike traditional facial treatments that focus primarily on the skin, EMFACE is designed to address two important components of facial appearance: skin quality and facial muscle tone. The result is a non-invasive treatment designed to help lift, firm, and smooth the appearance of the face without needles, surgery, or significant downtime.
At Revive Wellness, we are proud to offer EMFACE as an exclusive treatment option for patients in Oxford and the surrounding North Mississippi area.
What Is EMFACE?
EMFACE is a non-invasive facial treatment developed by BTL that combines two technologies in a single treatment: synchronized radiofrequency (RF) and HIFES™, or High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation.
RF energy gently heats the dermal tissue to support collagen and elastin production, while HIFES technology stimulates facial muscles through controlled electrical energy.
This dual-action approach is designed to work on both the skin and the underlying facial muscles, helping improve the appearance of facial firmness, definition, and wrinkles.
Research on synchronized RF and HIFES has found improvements in facial muscle characteristics, facial tissue lifting, and the appearance of wrinkles following a series of treatments. Published clinical research continues to evaluate the technology and its applications for facial rejuvenation.
How Does EMFACE Work?
EMFACE works through the simultaneous application of radiofrequency energy and HIFES technology.
Radiofrequency energy gently heats targeted tissue beneath the surface of the skin. This controlled heating is designed to stimulate the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin, proteins that play an important role in skin firmness and elasticity.
HIFES™ technology stimulates facial muscles using high-intensity electrical energy. The goal is to activate facial muscles in a way that may help improve their tone and strength.
By targeting both skin and muscle, EMFACE takes a different approach from treatments that focus solely on surface-level skin rejuvenation.
What Does EMFACE Treat?
EMFACE is designed to address several visible signs of facial aging and loss of firmness.
Depending on your individual needs and treatment plan, EMFACE may help improve the appearance of:
- Fine Lines and Wrinkles – Improve the appearance of facial wrinkles and lines.
- Skin Laxity – Support firmer-looking skin and facial contours.
- Facial Muscle Tone – Stimulate targeted facial muscles to support a more toned appearance.
- Facial Definition – Help create a more lifted and defined appearance.
- Forehead Lines – Address the appearance of wrinkles across the forehead.
- Facial Aging – Target both skin and underlying facial structures for a more comprehensive approach to rejuvenation.
EMFACE vs. Traditional Facial Rejuvenation
Many aesthetic treatments focus primarily on the skin, while others use injections to restore or enhance facial volume.
EMFACE takes a different approach by combining skin-focused RF energy with facial muscle stimulation.
For example, injectable treatments such as dermal fillers can be used to add volume or enhance specific facial contours. EMFACE does not use injections or dermal fillers. Instead, it is designed to stimulate facial muscles while delivering RF energy to the skin.
These treatments are not necessarily alternatives to one another. Depending on your goals, your provider may recommend one treatment or a combination of treatments as part of a personalized aesthetic plan.
What Are the Benefits of EMFACE?
EMFACE offers a unique combination of facial muscle stimulation and radiofrequency skin treatment in one non-invasive procedure.

- Non-invasive facial treatment
- No needles or injections
- No surgery
- Designed to target both skin and facial muscles
- Supports collagen and elastin production
- Helps improve the appearance of facial firmness
- Designed to smooth the appearance of wrinkles
- Little to no downtime
- Convenient treatment sessions
What Does EMFACE Feel Like?
EMFACE is designed to be a comfortable treatment without the need for needles or anesthesia.
During treatment, you may feel warmth from the radiofrequency energy along with muscle contractions caused by HIFES stimulation. The sensation can feel unusual at first, but treatment is designed to be well tolerated.
Your provider will make sure the treatment settings are appropriate for you and will explain what you can expect before your first session.
How Long Does an EMFACE Treatment Take?
EMFACE treatments are designed to be convenient and fit easily into a busy schedule.
A typical treatment session takes approximately 20 minutes, depending on the treatment protocol recommended by your provider.
Because EMFACE is non-invasive, there is no traditional recovery period associated with surgery or injectable procedures.
How Many EMFACE Treatments Will I Need?
A typical EMFACE treatment plan consists of a series of sessions rather than a single treatment.
Your provider will evaluate your facial structure, skin, aesthetic goals, and overall needs before recommending a treatment schedule.
Clinical studies evaluating synchronized RF and HIFES have commonly used a series of four treatments, with results evaluated over the following weeks and months. Your individualized treatment plan may vary.
When Will I See EMFACE Results?
Results can develop gradually as the skin responds to RF energy and the facial muscles respond to stimulation.
Clinical research has reported improvements in facial appearance, wrinkle severity, and facial tissue lifting following a series of synchronized RF and HIFES treatments, with some improvements continuing to develop during follow-up. Recent published research reported measurable wrinkle improvement at one and three months following treatment.
Individual results vary, and your provider can discuss what you may realistically expect based on your treatment plan.
Is There Any Downtime After EMFACE?
One of the reasons patients choose EMFACE is that it is non-invasive and does not require the recovery period associated with surgery.
Most patients can return to their normal activities after treatment. Your provider will discuss any temporary effects you may experience and provide personalized aftercare instructions.
Who Is a Good Candidate for EMFACE?
EMFACE may be appropriate for adults who want to improve the appearance of facial firmness, fine lines, wrinkles, or facial definition without injections or surgery.
The best way to determine whether EMFACE is right for you is to schedule a consultation with a Revive Wellness provider.
During your consultation, your provider can discuss:
- Your aesthetic goals
- Your skin and facial structure
- Your medical history
- Your previous aesthetic treatments
- Your desired results
- Whether EMFACE is appropriate for you
- Whether another treatment or combination of treatments may better fit your goals
