Introducing EMFACE®: A non-invasive solution to accelerate collagen and rejuvenate the face.
EMFACE addresses facial aging beyond the surface to tone, lift, and enhance the appearance of your skin and contours.
Facial aging is a complex, three dimensional process. We might notice signs of aging on the skin as we see wrinkles, lines, or a loss in volume or lift—but age-related changes in one anatomical layer (skin, fat, muscle, or bone) cause a cascade of changes to adjacent layers. It’s all interconnected, and a change in each layer affects the way your skin and facial contours appear. If you’re looking to holistically rejuvenate your face you’ll need to address the signs of aging deep beneath the surface. By restoring collagen production in the muscles, the skin appears lifted. When the skin is treated, the restored volume provides an additional lift.
Aging beautifully means going beyond surface skincare for solutions that complement your goals, and EMFACE provides an innovative solution to the natural visible signs of aging.
We’re proud to be one of the first clinics in Canada (and the first in Vancouver) to offer EMFACE®
Humphrey & Beleznay Cosmetic Dermatology is proud to be one of the first Canadian practices to offer EMFACE, an innovative treatment combining radiofrequency with electromagnetic stimulation to lift the face and brow.
- Our Vancouver clinic offers EMFACE treatment with dermatologists who bring a legacy of excellent care and thoughtful results to each patient.
- Your custom strategy encompasses the unique way your skin ages, your health profile, your aesthetic goals, and your singular beauty.
- EMFACE provides solutions that trigger the natural restorative processes your body already employs to produce collagen and elastin for elevated skin.
What is EMFACE®?
EMFACE is the first and only facial treatment to simultaneously address both skin and muscle for a comprehensive solution to natural signs of aging. EMFACE uses High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation (HIFES) in combination with synchronized radiofrequency (RF) to reinforce the facial muscle structures and improve skin texture and laxity. The result is a lifted face and brow, and a notable improvement in wrinkles and fine lines. EMFACE is a cornerstone treatment for aging vibrantly, healthily, and in a way that preserves and celebrates your unique beauty.
How does EMFACE® work?
EMFACE is a two-in-one procedure:
- High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation (HIFES) works to contract and strengthen delicate facial muscles to increase facial muscle density and tone and cause a lifting effect. Going beyond the surface allows us to directly address the scaffolding that’s responsible for skin’s volume and beautiful contours.
- Simultaneously, RF energy works to increase collagen and elastin fibers, which improves skin texture, smoothness, and laxity. On average, patients have seen 37% less wrinkles, 23% more lift in the face, and 30% more muscle tone. We naturally lose collagen and elastin as we age, and ramping up production brings back some of that youthful glow and tone that you may be missing.
EMFACE effectively remodels the skin by activating your skin’s musculature and restoring the scaffolding that supports your face’s beautiful contours.

“Patients love their EMFACE® results and how their skin feels after their treatment series. It’s also easy to accommodate a truly comfortable, 20-minute treatment without downtime.

What can I expect from EMFACE® treatment and recovery?
During an EMFACE treatment at our Vancouver clinic, you will feel muscle contractions and a heating sensation in the areas where the applicators have been placed. The treatment should never feel painful and your comfort is our top priority. We’ll walk you through the process so you know exactly what to expect from your EMFACE treatment.
How many EMFACE treatment sessions will I need?
A treatment consists of 4 sessions, with 2-14 days between each session. Since this treatment triggers collagen and elastin production deep beneath the surface of the skin, the results continue to appear long after your treatment. While every patient is unique and has different goals and needs, most will see full results at 12 weeks. The procedure doesn’t require any recovery time – you can get back to your daily routine immediately following treatment!
Does EMFACE® hurt?
Most patients describe a heating and vibrating sensation but this treatment is more comfortable than injectable treatments and is appreciated for how comfortable and quick it is.
How long does EMFACE® treatment take?
EMFACE treatment typically takes around 20 minutes at our Vancouver clinic, so it fits easily into a busy schedule and doesn’t require any downtime.
