How EMFACE Treats TMJ Dysfunction
EMFACE targets every layer from muscle to skin using two complementary technologies:
-
Radiofrequency gently elevates tissue temperature to relieve symptoms associated with muscle spasms and improve local circulation
-
HIFES® stimulation activates and retrains the jaw muscles to help ease TMJ-related pain and support or increase jaw range of motion
By synchronizing these technologies, EMFACE provides a comfortable, hands-free therapy that supports everyday jaw comfort and function.
Who Is a Candidate for EMFACE TMJ Relief?
EMFACE® Functional TMJ may be right for you if you experience:
-
Jaw pain or discomfort
-
Facial muscle tension or tightness
-
Muscle spasms related to TMJ dysfunction
-
Trouble chewing
-
Difficulty opening your mouth
Because many TMJ concerns are connected to jaw alignment, clenching, and bite-related stress, EMFACE can be an effective complement to traditional dental TMJ treatments such as night guards.
What to Expect During Treatment
EMFACE treatments are quick, comfortable, and convenient:
-
20-minute, non-invasive sessions
-
Typically performed as a series of four treatments, spaced one week apart
- No needles, no anesthesia, and no downtime
During the session, most patients feel gentle muscle contractions combined with a mild warming sensation, often described as relaxing—similar to a facial massage.

Supporting Facial Balance & Jawline Appearance
EMFACE® Aesthetic Benefits
While EMFACE® is FDA-cleared to treat TMJ dysfunction and associated pain, many patients also appreciate its aesthetic benefits. By strengthening the jaw muscles, EMFACE® helps support improved facial balance and a more defined jawline.
A common concern among patients in Plantation, FL is the appearance of a double chin, which is often influenced by muscle laxity and jaw structure, not just weight. EMFACE® activates the muscles beneath the chin while supporting skin firmness, all without surgery or recovery time.
