Emface TMJ

FDA-Cleared TMJ Treatment Without Needles

Experience lasting relief from jaw pain, headaches, and TMJ dysfunction at FACE Medspa. Emface TMJ is the first and only FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that addresses the root cause of TMJ disorders—not just the symptoms. Using patented synchronized radiofrequency and HIFES™ technology, we re-educate your jaw muscles, restore proper joint function, and deliver 8-10 months of relief. No needles. No surgery. No downtime. Just real results that transform both how you feel and how you look.

Finally: A Real Solution for TMJ That Goes Beyond Band-Aids

“For years, TMJ sufferers have been stuck in a frustrating cycle—temporary Botox injections that weaken muscles without fixing the problem, night guards that protect teeth but don’t restore balance, and physical therapy that plateaus before delivering lasting relief. At FACE Medspa, we’ve pioneered a different approach with Emface TMJ: the first FDA-cleared treatment that actually re-educates your jaw muscles from the root cause. Using synchronized radiofrequency and HIFES™ supramaximal contractions, we don’t just mask your pain—we restore proper muscle balance, improve joint tracking, and give you 8-10 months of functional relief. But here’s what makes our approach revolutionary: we don’t treat your jaw in isolation. We address the postural imbalances and core weakness that pull your neck and jaw out of alignment in the first place. The result? Not only do you get lasting TMJ relief, but you also achieve a lifted, contoured jawline and enhanced facial longevity. This is comprehensive care that fixes the problem—not temporary relief that fades in three months.”

What is Emface TMJ?

The First FDA-Cleared Non-Invasive TMJ Treatment

Emface TMJ is a breakthrough treatment specifically designed to address temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction and associated pain. Unlike temporary solutions that mask symptoms, Emface uses patented technology to target the root cause: muscle imbalance in the masseter and temporalis muscles surrounding your jaw.

FDA-Cleared Indications:

Increased local blood flow


Relief of muscle spasms


Muscle re-education 
and rebalancing

Treatment of TMJ dysfunction and associated pain

Maintenance or improvement of jaw range of motion

Understanding TMJ/TMD: The Hidden Epidemic

TMJ (temporomandibular joint) is the complex hinge connecting your jawbone to your skull, a joint that moves both side-to-side and up-and-down. TMD (temporomandibular disorder) occurs when this joint and surrounding muscles fall out of balance, causing pain, dysfunction, and a cascade of symptoms affecting your entire face and head.

The Root Causes Most Providers Miss:

01

Tech Neck & Poor Posture

Hours hunched over phones and computers pull neck muscles out of alignment, creating a domino effect that extends to your jaw. Best complimentary

Solution: Stretching, Emsculpt NEO

02

Weak Core Foundation

Your core is your body’s foundation. When it’s weak, everything above it including your neck and jaw, compensates and misaligns, contributing directly to TMD.

Best complimentary solution: Emsculpt NEO

03

Chronic Stress

Mental and emotional stress manifests as physical tension, leading to clenching and grinding that overworks jaw muscles.

Best complimentary solution: Exomind

04

Muscle Imbalance

Overworked, tight masseter and temporalis muscles combined with under-active supporting muscles create dysfunction in how your jaw tracks and functions.

How Emface TMJ Works: 
Revolutionary Dual Technology

Synchronized RF + HIFES™ for Complete Muscle Re-Education

Radiofrequency (RF) Heating

Gentle, controlled heating penetrates deep into jaw tissues to:

HIFES™ (High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation)

Patented supramaximal muscle contractions that:

The Four Phase Transformation Process

phase-1

Muscle Assessment 
& Imbalance Identification

During your consultation, we evaluate muscle tension patterns, jaw tracking, range of motion, and postural contributors to identify the specific imbalances driving your TMD.

phase-2

Targeted Muscle 
Re-Education (Sessions 1-4)

Four 20-minute sessions (spaced 1-2 times per week) deliver synchronized RF + HIFES™ to progressively re-educate jaw muscles, restore balance, and improve joint function.

phase-3

Progressive Relief & Functional Improvement

Many patients feel reduced tension after just 1-2 sessions. Full functional benefits continue building for weeks after your series completes as muscle patterns stabilize.

phase-4

Sustained Long-
Term Relief

Results typically last 8-10 months (some patients enjoy benefits even longer). Maintenance sessions help sustain optimal jaw function and prevent regression.

Your Emface TMJ Treatment Experience

During Treatment

You’ll recline comfortably while specialized applicators are positioned on your jaw area. The synchronized RF warming and HIFES™ muscle contractions work together to re-educate your muscles. Most patients find the sensation soothing and use the time to relax or catch up on their phone.

Important Note: If teeth start clenching as energy increases, we simply adjust intensity just below that threshold so muscles remain responsive without forcing clenching. Treatment is customized to your comfort level throughout.

After Treatment

Walk out and return to your day. No restrictions. No recovery period. Just progressive relief building with each session.

Emface TMJ vs. Masseter Botox: The Complete Comparison

Why Temporary Paralysis Falls Short And What Actually Works

For years, masseter Botox has been the go-to solution for TMJ symptoms. But here’s what most patients don’t realize until they’ve spent thousands on repeated injections: Botox is a band-aid, not a solution. It temporarily masks symptoms by paralyzing muscles, without addressing why those muscles became dysfunctional in the first place.

What Emface TMJ Actually Fixes:

Synergistic Integration with Aesthetic Treatments

01

Muscle Imbalance Correction

Overworked, tight masseters are stretched and relaxed. Under-active supporting muscles are strengthened. Balance is restored, not through paralysis, but through functional re-education.

02

Joint Tracking Restoration

The temporomandibular joint begins moving correctly again side-to-side and up-and-down as designed. Clicking and popping often disappear as proper mechanics return.

03

Pain Elimination at the Source

Rather than preventing pain through paralysis, Emface eliminates the dysfunctional muscle patterns and spasms causing pain. The difference? Lasting relief even after treatment ends.

04

Functional Enhancement

Chewing works better. Jaw opens wider. Movement feels natural. These aren’t side effects, they’re FDA-cleared treatment goals.

05

Aesthetic Improvement Without Compromise

You get the slimmed, contoured jawline you want but through muscle optimization rather than weakening. Your facial structure is supported, not undermined.

06

Long-Term Facial Health

By strengthening your facial foundation and restoring proper muscle function, Emface TMJ supports the longevity of all your facial treatments while preventing future dysfunction.

The Bottom Line:

Temporary muscle paralysis requiring indefinite quarterly injections at $1,260-$1,680/year with progressive muscle weakening and no functional improvement

Functional muscle rehabilitation delivering 8-10+ months of relief through 4 sessions at $1,980 with lasting improvements in joint function, pain relief, and aesthetic enhancement


One masks the problem. The other fixes it.
