TriBella & Emface FAQ
TriBella™ is a non-invasive facial rejuvenation treatment combining IPL photofacial, anti-aging radiofrequency, and skin resurfacing to improve skin tone, texture, and elasticity in one session. Emface is another non-invasive treatment that uses synchronized radiofrequency and high-intensity facial electromagnetic stimulation (HIFES) to lift and firm facial muscles and skin, enhancing overall facial structure. Both treatments provide a youthful appearance without surgery or injections, targeting different layers and elements of the skin and muscle.
Frequently Asked Questions
TriBella is a three-in-one facial treatment that combines photorejuvenation, radiofrequency (RF) skin tightening, and fractional laser resurfacing. This multi-step approach is designed to improve skin tone, reduce wrinkles, and tighten the skin, providing a non-surgical facelift effect.
Emface is a non-invasive facial treatment that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic (HIFEM) energy combined with synchronized RF to lift facial muscles and tone the skin. Emface targets muscle contraction, helping to lift the face and smooth fine lines and wrinkles.
TriBella works in three phases:
- Photorejuvenation: Uses intense pulsed light (IPL) to treat pigmentation issues and even out skin tone.
- RF Skin Tightening: Uses radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and tighten the skin.
- Fractional Laser: A laser that resurfaces the skin, reducing fine lines, wrinkles, and texture irregularities.
Emface uses a combination of RF energy to heat the skin and stimulate collagen and elastin production, while HIFEM energy contracts the facial muscles, similar to the way Emsculpt works on the body. This helps to lift and tone the muscles in the face, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
TriBella can treat the entire face, focusing on areas with wrinkles, sagging skin, uneven tone, and sun damage. Commonly treated areas include the forehead, cheeks, jawline, chin and under-eye areas.
Emface focuses on the upper face, particularly the forehead, brow area, and cheeks. It’s designed to improve muscle tone and lift the face, making it ideal for addressing forehead wrinkles, sagging eyebrows, and mid-face laxity.

Results from TriBella treatments are long-lasting, with improvements in skin texture and tone noticeable after a few sessions. Maintenance treatments every 6-12 months may be needed to maintain optimal results.
Results from Emface typically last several months, with optimal results visible after a series of treatments (usually 4 sessions over a few weeks). Maintenance treatments every 6 months may be recommended for prolonged effects.
TriBella treatments have minimal downtime. Patients may experience some redness or swelling after the procedure, but these effects usually subside within a few days.
Emface is a completely non-invasive treatment with no downtime. Patients can return to their normal activities immediately after the session.
Both TriBella and Emface are generally well-tolerated by patients. TriBella can cause some mild discomfort, especially during the laser resurfacing phase, but a topical anesthetic can be applied to minimize discomfort. Emface is usually described as a warm sensation with muscle contractions, but it is not typically painful.
TriBella is suitable for individuals looking to improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, skin tone, and texture, and those wanting to tighten sagging skin without surgery. It is ideal for mild to moderate skin aging.
Emface is ideal for individuals who want to improve muscle tone and lift the face without invasive procedures. It is especially beneficial for those with mild to moderate facial sagging, forehead lines, and drooping eyebrows.
TriBella: Typically, 3-5 sessions spaced about 4-6 weeks apart are recommended for optimal results.
Emface: A series of 4 treatments, spaced over 2-4 weeks, is typically recommended.
The cost of TriBella can range from $800 to $1500 per session, depending on the clinic and location. Emface treatments typically range from $750 to $1500 per session. Prices may vary depending on the number of sessions required and the treatment area.
Both TriBella and Emface are considered safe, FDA-approved treatments when performed by trained professionals. However, as with any cosmetic procedure, it’s important to consult with a licensed provider to ensure the treatment is appropriate for your skin type and concerns.
TriBella: Some results can be seen after the first treatment, but full results usually become more apparent after completing the recommended series of treatments.
Emface: Results often begin to show after the first session, with full improvement seen 2-3 months after the last treatment.
Yes, both TriBella and Emface can be combined with other non-invasive procedures such as injectables (Botox or fillers), microneedling, or chemical peels for enhanced results. However, it’s important to discuss your treatment plan with your provider.
