Holistic Dental and Aesthetic Care That Goes Beyond Your Expectations
If you've noticed your face beginning to soften, sag, or lose its definition, you've come to the right place. At Ateeth Dental Care, we offer facial rejuvenation treatments with EMFACE to restore your skin's health and youthful contours. Synchronized Radiofrequency and HIFES muscle stimulation technology helps lift, tone, and firm the face from within, all without surgery, needles, or downtime. We invite you to visit our Reston, VA, practice to discover what EMFACE can do for you.
What Are the Causes of Facial Aging?
Facial aging is not skin deep. It is a functional process that happens in layers, from the outside in. The skin loses its clear texture and elasticity, and the fat pads shift and deflate. The layer most often overlooked yet largely responsible for sagging and descent that characterize facial aging is the muscle layer. Facial muscles gradually lose tone and weaken over time, and when they do, the skin and tissues they support follow.
Standard skincare works on the surface, while injectables target specific compartments. EMFACE is the only technology that simultaneously addresses the skin with Synchronized Radiofrequency and the muscular foundation with HIFES to lift and firm the face from within.
EMFACE delivers two technologies simultaneously through applicators placed on the treatment areas:
- Synchronized Radiofrequency (RF): Controlled thermal energy delivered into the dermis helps stimulate collagen and elastin production, healing, lifting, and tightening the skin from within.
- High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation (HIFES): HIFES delivers thousands of pulses per session, producing contractions that rebuild muscle density and tone delicate facial muscles, helping reverse the signs of aging.
While RF addresses the skin, HIFES simultaneously addresses your facial muscles, which is what makes EMFACE uniquely effective. The result is a natural-looking lift and wrinkle reduction without invasive procedures.
The following are some of the facial concerns EMFACE can address:
- Forehead: Toning the frontalis muscle helps reduce horizontal lines and provides a non-surgical brow lift by improving the muscle's resting suspension.
- Cheeks: Targeting the deeper supporting muscles of the cheek helps restore volume and provide a midface lift.
- Under-Eye Area: Improved structural support and skin tightening can help reduce the appearance of under-eye bags.
- Submental Area: Addressing muscle laxity and loose skin beneath the chin helps reduce the appearance of a double chin.
- Perioral Area: Improved muscle tone around the mouth helps improve lip definition and reduces perioral lines, including vertical lines above the lip.
Your teeth are the foundation and scaffolding of your face. The lower third of your face depends on the teeth for its height, projection, and structural support. This structural relationship is known as the Vertical Dimension of Occlusion (VDO).
If you lose any of your teeth, have significant tooth wear, or if your bite collapses, the vertical dimension of your face may decrease. This can result in lip support diminishing, nasolabial folds deepening, marionette lines appearing, the chin projecting forward, and so much more. These are more than skin problems. They are structural ones, and no amount of surface treatment can fully correct them.
EMFACE is most effective when the underlying dental structure is sound. For patients dealing with changes related to tooth loss or bite collapse, Dr. Sri can address the dental foundation alongside the aesthetic treatment. At Ateeth Dental Care, we don't just treat symptoms; we address the underlying concerns to deliver better results with more long-lasting outcomes.
Frequently Asked Questions About EMFACE
How is EMFACE different from a traditional facelift?
A surgical facelift physically repositions and removes tissue. EMFACE rebuilds the muscular foundation and stimulates collagen with radiofrequency and HIFES electrical stimulation, all without incisions, general anesthesia, or weeks of recovery.
How many treatments are needed?
The standard protocol is four sessions of approximately 20 minutes each, spaced about a week apart. Maintenance sessions every few months will help you maintain your treatment results.
Does EMFACE hurt?
Most patients describe the sensation as a warming feeling from the RF combined with a mild pulsing from the muscle stimulation. It is well-tolerated and requires no numbing. Because there are no needles, no bruising, and no redness, you can return to your normal activities immediately after your session.
Can EMFACE help with under-eye bags?
EMFACE can improve under-eye bags related to skin laxity and weakened support structures. It is not a treatment for bags caused primarily by fat herniation.
Does EMFACE help with a double chin?
The EMFACE Submental protocol targets muscle and skin laxity beneath the chin and can meaningfully reduce the appearance of a double chin. It also offers secondary functional benefits for patients with mild obstructive sleep concerns related to soft-tissue positioning.
