EMFACE® for TMJ in [city], [st]

A Noninvasive, FDA-Cleared Option for TMJ Pain

EMFACE® is a breakthrough, needle-free, nonsurgical treatment that has been FDA-cleared to treat TMJ dysfunction and associated pain, relieve symptoms of muscle spasm, re-educate muscles, increase local blood flow and help maintain or improve jaw range of motion. Learn more about EMFACE.

By combining synchronized radiofrequency (RF) with HIFES® high-intensity facial muscle stimulation, EMFACE targets the jaw and facial muscles involved in TMJ disorders. This helps reduce pain and tension, support smoother jaw movement and improve overall comfort — without injections, anesthesia or downtime.

How EMFACE Helps TMJ Dysfunction

For TMJ and orofacial pain, EMFACE is designed to:

  • Relax overactive or spasmodic jaw muscles
  • Reduce pain and tenderness associated with TMJ dysfunction
  • Improve jaw function and mobility, including opening and closing range
  • Increase local circulation, supporting tissue recovery
  • Re-educate muscle patterns, helping break the cycle of clenching and muscular imbalance

Patients often describe the treatment as a series of firm but comfortable muscle contractions with a gentle warming sensation — more like a “hands-free facial workout” than a medical procedure.

The Recommended Treatment Protocol

The standard EMFACE protocol consists of:

  • 4 treatment sessions
  • Each session is 20 minutes
  • Sessions are typically scheduled once per week for about a month

Most patients begin to notice changes as they progress through the series, with continued improvements in comfort, muscle relaxation, and function over the following weeks.

Dual Benefit: TMJ Relief and Cosmetic Facial Lifting

In addition to its functional benefits for TMJ, EMFACE is also FDA-cleared for facial lifting and wrinkle reduction in areas such as the forehead and cheeks. It has been shown in aesthetic studies to improve muscle tone and stimulate collagen and elastin, contributing to a smoother, more lifted appearance. Explore EMFACE for facial rejuvenation.

That means many patients enjoy two advantages at once:

  • Functional: less jaw tension, fewer spasms, and better jaw mobility
  • Aesthetic: subtle lifting of the midface and brows, improved facial contour, and more youthful skin quality

EMFACE is an attractive option for patients who want to address TMJ discomfort and enhance their facial appearance without surgery, needles, or downtime.

What to Expect During Treatment

  • You’ll relax in a treatment chair while small adhesive applicators are placed over the jaw and facial muscles being treated.
  • During the 20-minute session, you’ll feel rhythmic muscle contractions and comfortable warmth in the treated area.
  • There is no downtime — you can return to normal activities immediately after your appointment.

Is EMFACE Right for You?

EMFACE for TMJ is best suited for patients with:

  • Jaw pain, tightness, or fatigue
  • Muscle-based TMJ symptoms (clenching, spasm, tension)
  • Restricted or uncomfortable jaw motion
  • TMJ dysfunction who prefer a noninvasive, medication-free option

As with any medical device, EMFACE is not appropriate for everyone; people with certain implanted electronic devices, metal implants in the treatment area, or specific medical conditions may not be candidates. We will review your medical history carefully and determine whether EMFACE is a safe and appropriate option for you. Learn more about EMFACE candidacy.
