At Medical Esthetics Thunder Bay, we’re committed to offering our patients the most innovative and advanced esthetic treatments available. With such incredible results, it’s no wonder it’s one of our most popular treatments. With Emface, you can enjoy a nonsurgical facelift in Thunder Bay, with no incisions, needles, or other invasive work.
Emface at a Glance
Emface combines 2 technologies, electromagnetic stimulation and radiofrequency (RF) energy, to create transformative results. The device works by causing rapid microcontractions in your facial muscles to build up volume and tone while simultaneously smoothing your skin with the soothing RF energy. As the RF energy passes through your skin, it increases the production of healing proteins inside your body to further tighten your skin and reduce wrinkles.
What It Treats
- Wrinkles & Fine Lines
- Skin Laxity
- Lack of Tone or Definition
- Muscle Weakness
- Submental Fat
Our Approach
Emface is your ticket to total facial rejuvenation.
We’re one of the most experienced esthetic providers in Thunder Bay. When you come to our practice, we’ll help you feel lifted up and empowered even before your treatment.
It all starts with a complimentary consultation, where we’ll walk you through the Emface process and make sure the treatment matches your goals. Then, we’ll schedule your sessions to get you started on your esthetic journey. Emface can be used all across the face, and we even offer specialized Emface Submentum treatment to specifically target submental fat, more commonly known as the “double chin”.
Emface Attachments
Emface offers versatile treatment options for patients interested in targeting specific areas of the face. The Emface Eye and Submentum applicators focus the treatment for heightened results.
Emface Eye
For patients looking to treat the sensitive under-eye area, we recommend Emface Eye. Providers place the Emface Eye applicator patches beneath the eyes to target wrinkles, tighten skin, and reduce puffiness. By rejuvenating the skin around the patient’s eyes, we can create a more lively and youthful appearance.
Emface Submentum
For patients looking to reduce their double chin, we recommend Emface Submentum. By simultaneously targeting layers of muscle and skin, this applicator tightens the submentum area for a more chiseled, defined facial silhouette.

What to Know
Frequently Asked Questions
During your treatments, you’ll lie down in our treatment room while we apply the Emface applicator paddles to your forehead and cheeks. As the device turns on and begins to emit electromagnetic and RF energy, you’ll feel your facial muscles contracting as well as a warm sensation. Each treatment lasts around 20 minutes. After that, we’ll disconnect the paddles and you’ll be free to go!
For Emface Submentum, we use a special applicator that is placed over your chin. You’ll experience the same feeling of warm muscle contractions, and then you’ll enjoy the natural, lasting results from our device!
Be sure to stay hydrated in the days leading up to your Emface session. You will also need to remove any metal from your body before treatment, so we recommend you avoid wearing any jewelry on the day of your session. If we have any other specific guidance for you, we’ll let you know during your consultation.
One of the best parts about Emface is that there’s no notable downtime or recovery needed after treatment. You can prolong your results by maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine, so we always recommend prioritizing a healthy lifestyle after your nonsurgical facelift in Thunder Bay.
One advantage of the Emface treatment is its versatility. Everyone’s esthetic goals are different, so it’s important that our treatments reflect that. When patients meet with our team for a nonsurgical facelift in Thunder Bay, we discuss their concerns so we can determine which Emface applicators can provide the desired results.
For example, if you want to reduce puffiness and wrinkles beneath the eyes, then we may recommend Emface Eye. For patients looking to address a double chin, we may suggest Emface Submentum. These applicators target particular areas of the face to combat specific concerns, so patients can experience targeted results.
During your consultation, be sure to communicate openly with your provider. Let us know what you’re looking for, and we can adjust your treatment accordingly.
Emface isn’t just for a nonsurgical facelift in Thunder Bay. We may also recommend this treatment for any patients struggling with a temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorder.
TMJ disorders often cause chronic pain in the jaw, especially when the patient speaks or chews food. This discomfort stems from strain in the temporomandibular joint, which connects the lower jawbone to the skull. A TMJ disorder may develop as a result of a condition like arthritis, bad habits like biting nails, or injury to the jaw itself.
Fortunately, the FDA has cleared Emface for the treatment of TMJ disorders. Using a combination of radiofrequency (RF) and electrical stimulation, Emface can reduce soreness in the jaw so patients can eat and chew comfortably.
RF gently heats the affected area to treat inflammation, and the electrical stimulation contracts the facial muscles for reduced irritation. If you’re tired of living with chronic jaw pain, Emface may be able to provide the relief you need.
We recommend Emface Submentum for patients interested in reducing their double chin. This Emface applicator is placed beneath the chin, just above the neck, emitting focused radiofrequency (RF) energy and electrical stimulation to create a more defined jawline. Double chins don’t just arise from added weight—they also occur as a result of the natural aging process.
When the skin in the chin becomes loose and droopy, it can create the appearance of a second chin. RF energy stimulates additional collagen and elastin production in the submentum region, tightening the skin. The electrical stimulation also targets muscles in this region, toning their appearance and reducing the appearance of a double chin.
