Submental fullness, commonly known as a double chin, can be incredibly resistant to diet, exercise, and at-home treatments. Whether it’s due to age, genetics, or changes in skin elasticity, it often lingers no matter what you do. Fortunately, a non-invasive option is now designed to address this area without surgery, needles, or downtime.
At Lively Wellness and Aesthetics in Odessa, TX, we proudly offer EMFACE, the revolutionary non-invasive treatment that lifts, tones, and rejuvenates the face — now available with the Submentum applicator, specially designed to target and contour the area under the chin. If you’re bothered by a double chin or want a more defined jawline, EMFACE Submentum offers powerful, needle-free results without downtime.
EMFACE is the first and only non-invasive device that simultaneously targets facial skin and muscles to lift, tone, and smooth without needles or downtime. It uses a patented combination of synchronized radiofrequency (RF) and HIFES™ (High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation) technology to heat the skin and contract facial muscles. The result is a natural-looking lift, improved skin texture, and reduced facial laxity and wrinkles.
EMFACE sessions are quick and convenient, typically lasting just 20 minutes from start to finish. It’s an ideal treatment to fit into your lunch break or a busy day—no extended downtime or prep required.
EMFACE is completely needle-free, so there’s no risk of bruising, swelling, or puncture marks. You’ll enjoy visibly smoother, firmer skin without discomfort or recovery time associated with injectables.
From start to finish, EMFACE is designed with your comfort in mind. Most patients describe the sensation as a warm, gentle pulse or tapping. No pain, no stress, just a relaxing experience.
EMFACE gradually enhances your facial features by stimulating your collagen and muscle tone. The results look refreshed and lifted, never frozen or overdone.
Unlike treatments that focus on one or the other, EMFACE treats the skin’s surface and the underlying muscles. This dual approach improves facial structure and tightens skin at the same time.
EMFACE is backed by clinical research and cleared by the FDA for safety and effectiveness. You can feel confident knowing it meets high medical standards.
By strengthening facial muscles and stimulating collagen production, EMFACE provides a natural lift. You’ll notice firmer skin and improved facial contours. There’s no overfilled or artificial look.
The radiofrequency energy helps smooth fine lines and improves overall skin quality. Expect a more radiant, youthful glow with consistent treatments.
EMFACE kickstarts your skin’s natural regenerative process by boosting collagen and elastin. This means longer-lasting firmness, elasticity, and wrinkle reduction over time.
There’s no peeling, redness, or prolonged recovery period. You can leave your session looking refreshed, and results continue to improve in the following weeks.
Injectables like Botox and dermal fillers focus on muscle relaxation or adding volume, but they don’t treat the deeper facial structure or skin quality at the same time. EMFACE, on the other hand, tones facial muscles and stimulates collagen for a more natural lift, all without needles or synthetic substances.
Kybella is an injectable that breaks down fat under the chin, but it often requires multiple sessions, can cause swelling, and involves some downtime. EMFACE Submentum reduces submental fullness while tightening the skin and toning the jawline muscles, offering a more comprehensive solution with no needles or downtime.
Ultherapy uses ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen in deeper layers of the skin, but the sensation can be uncomfortable, and results are slower to appear. EMFACE offers a comfortable, faster alternative by combining radiofrequency and HIFES™ technology for visible lift and skin rejuvenation, often with noticeable improvements after a few sessions.
A surgical facelift involves significant recovery time, anesthesia, and a higher financial investment. EMFACE is completely non-invasive, making it ideal for those seeking subtle, natural results without the risks or downtime of surgery.
While EMFACE is known for lifting the cheeks, tightening the forehead, and improving overall facial contour, it now offers a specialized solution for the submental area (under the chin).
EMFACE Submentum is the only non-invasive solution to target every layer from muscle to skin to reduce your double chin. This specialized applicator is designed specifically for the submental area—the space beneath the chin that’s often difficult to treat with diet, exercise, or even traditional aesthetic procedures.
EMFACE Submentum addresses skin laxity, muscle tone, and fat reduction by reaching deep beneath the surface without needles, surgery, or downtime. It’s an ideal treatment for anyone looking to refine their jawline, reduce fullness, and achieve a more defined lower face in a short series of painless sessions.
EMFACE is the first procedure to apply a patented combination of Synchronized Radiofrequency and the HIFES™ muscle stimulation. Stimulation of submental tissues together with radiofrequency heating results in an overall aesthetic improvement of the submental area.
The synchronized radiofrequency (RF) gently heats the skin and deeper tissues to stimulate collagen and elastin production, which tightens and firms the area. At the same time, HIFES™ (High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation) activates the underlying muscles, enhancing tone and lifting the tissue from within. The dual-action technology creates a layered improvement, targeting fat, muscle, and skin to visibly reduce the double chin, improve jawline contour, and restore a more sculpted appearance with no recovery time needed.
No special preparation is needed before your EMFACE Submentum treatment. We recommend arriving with clean skin and no makeup, lotions, or skincare products in the treatment area. Our team will review your goals during your consultation and walk you through what to expect based on your unique needs.
You’ll recline comfortably in a treatment chair while the EMFACE Submentum applicator is gently positioned under your chin. The device simultaneously delivers synchronized radiofrequency to heat the skin and HIFES™ (High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation) to activate the underlying muscles.
Most patients describe the sensation as a warm, firming vibration combined with light muscle pulses. There’s no pain, needles, or need for numbing cream—just a soothing, non-invasive experience from start to finish.
There is no downtime after EMFACE. You can return to your routine immediately, including work, errands, or social plans. The skin under your chin may feel slightly warm or appear mildly red, but these effects are temporary and typically fade within a few hours.
Your EMFACE journey begins with a 20-minute session targeting your treatment areas. You’ll relax comfortably while the device stimulates your facial muscles and gently heats the skin.
You’ll return once a week for a total of four treatments. Each session builds on the last, gradually strengthening the muscles and boosting collagen for lifting and tightening effects. Most patients find the treatments comfortable and easy to fit into their schedule.
Results become more noticeable as your body produces new collagen and your facial muscles become more defined. You may see a more sculpted jawline, smoother skin, and reduced submental fullness (if treated with the Submentum applicator) during this time.
Your results can last several months, and many patients schedule maintenance sessions every six to 12 months. We will work with you to create a long-term plan that fits your lifestyle and aesthetic goals.
You may notice subtle skin texture and muscle tone improvements within a few weeks of your first EMFACE session. However, full results typically develop six to 12 weeks after your final treatment as your body builds collagen and strengthens the targeted facial muscles. This gradual transformation creates a more lifted, contoured appearance, particularly in the cheeks, forehead, and under the chin.
Most patients achieve optimal results with four EMFACE treatments, each spaced approximately one week apart. This schedule allows for steady stimulation and gradual remodeling of the facial tissues. Depending on your goals and the area being treated, such as the submental region, we may adjust the number of sessions or recommend maintenance treatments every six to 12 months to help sustain your results long-term.
EMFACE is FDA-cleared and clinically proven safe and effective for all Fitzpatrick skin types, from very fair to intensely pigmented skin. Unlike laser treatments that rely on light energy and can pose risks for hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation in darker skin tones, EMFACE uses synchronized radiofrequency (RF) and HIFES™ muscle stimulation, neither of which affects melanin levels in the skin.
Because of this, EMFACE is an excellent option for patients of all backgrounds seeking facial rejuvenation without the risk of discoloration or irritation. There’s also no need for skin-typing pre-assessments or downtime, making it a truly inclusive and low-risk procedure.
EMFACE is often part of a larger custom aesthetic plan to maximize facial rejuvenation. It pairs exceptionally well with skin texture and surface tone treatments, such as microneedling, radiofrequency microneedling, hydrafacials, or chemical peels. While EMFACE strengthens the facial structure and stimulates collagen from within, these additional treatments address superficial skin concerns like fine lines, acne scars, or uneven pigmentation.
Some patients also combine EMFACE with injectables, such as dermal fillers or neuromodulators (like Botox), for a more layered and personalized result. During your consultation, we will assess your skin, facial anatomy, and goals to recommend a plan that safely integrates EMFACE with complementary services, all timed for optimal results and minimal disruption to your schedule.
EMFACE is well-suited for individuals who want to address facial aging, sagging, or fullness in the lower face without surgery. You may be a great candidate if you:
