EmFace® treatment in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL at Dermagnify is a revolutionary breakthrough in facial rejuvenation: the first needle-free, hands-free procedure that treats facial skin and muscles simultaneously to lift and tone without surgery or downtime.
At Dermagnify, Medical, Surgical and Cosmetic Dermatology in Ponte Vedra Beach, FL, Dr. Mark A. Cappel, MD, is proud to offer EmFace® to patients in Ponte Vedra Beach, Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and throughout Northeast Florida.
The face is the most visible expression of who we are, yet it is also one of the first areas to show the effects of aging. As facial muscles weaken and skin loses elasticity, we develop sagging cheeks, a less defined jawline, wrinkles, and a tired appearance that does not reflect how we feel inside.
Traditional treatments often require needles, injections, or surgery, and they only address the skin without strengthening the underlying facial muscles that provide structure and support.
It is the first and only FDA-cleared treatment that simultaneously addresses both the functional and aesthetic aspects of facial aging using a powerful combination of Synchronized Radiofrequency (RF) and HIFES® (High-Intensity Facial Electromagnetic Stimulation) technologies. In just 20 minutes, EmFace® stimulates facial muscles to contract and tone while heating the skin to boost collagen and elastin production, delivering a natural lift, improved contours, and a more youthful appearance, all without needles, surgery, or downtime.
EmFace® is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive facial rejuvenation treatment that combines Synchronized Radiofrequency (RF) energy with HIFES® technology to simultaneously lift, tone, and tighten the face while providing functional relief for TMJ dysfunction.
The treatment works by delivering RF energy to heat the skin and stimulate collagen and elastin production, while HIFES® technology induces thousands of supramaximal muscle contractions in the facial muscles, strengthening and toning them to restore facial structure and support.
EmFace® is FDA-cleared for both aesthetic enhancement, improving the appearance of the forehead, cheeks, eyes, jawline, and double chin, and functional therapy, treating TMJ dysfunction, relieving associated pain and muscle spasms, and supporting or increasing jaw range of motion.
Key Concerns Addressed
Loss of Facial Volume & Sagging
As we age, facial muscles weaken and atrophy, leading to loss of volume, sagging cheeks, and a flattened appearance. EmFace® strengthens and tones the underlying facial muscles, restoring structure, support, and youthful contours.
Wrinkles & Fine Lines
Dynamic wrinkles on the forehead, around the eyes, and on the cheeks are caused by repetitive muscle movements and collagen loss. EmFace® stimulates collagen and elastin production while toning facial muscles, reducing the appearance of wrinkles by 37% on average.
Undefined Jawline & Double Chin
A weak jawline and submental fullness (double chin) can make you look older and heavier. EmFace® with the submentum applicator targets the jaw muscles and under-chin area, improving definition and reducing the appearance of a double chin without surgery or injections.
Tired, Aged Eyes
The delicate eye area is one of the first to show signs of aging, with drooping eyelids, crow's feet, and loss of firmness. EmFace® Eyes uses dedicated applicators to lift and rejuvenate the eye area, creating a more alert, youthful appearance.
TMJ Dysfunction & Jaw Pain
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction causes jaw pain, muscle spasms, limited range of motion, and discomfort. EmFace® is FDA-cleared to treat TMJ dysfunction by stimulating jaw muscles, relieving pain, and improving mobility—all without needles or surgery.

Patient-Focused Approach
The field of facial rejuvenation has evolved significantly, offering patients a range of options from injectables to energy-based devices to surgical procedures.
EmFace® stands out as the only treatment that simultaneously strengthens facial muscles and stimulates collagen production, addressing both the structural and superficial aspects of facial aging.
Unlike injectables that only add volume or neuromodulators that only relax muscles, EmFace® actively tones and lifts the face by building muscle and improving skin quality. Understanding how EmFace® compares to other facial rejuvenation options can help you choose the most effective solution for your goals.
