Our Office in New York City
What Is EMFACE®?
EMFACE® is the first and only non-invasive facial therapy that simultaneously delivers heat-based radiofrequency and targeted muscle activation. Instead of weakening facial muscles, EMFACE® trains them to work in a more natural, coordinated, and efficient way.
This makes EMFACE® ideal for patients who want to:
Reduce jaw tension
Improve facial muscle function
Support TMJ health naturally
Enhance facial contour and tone
Avoid injections or surgical procedures
Complement Invisalign®, bonding, veneers, and smile makeover treatments
EMFACE® is a comfortable, 20 minute treatment with no downtime, offering both functional and aesthetic benefits.
Who Can Benefit from EMFACE®?
EMFACE® is an excellent option for individuals who experience:
TMJ discomfort or muscle-related jaw pain
Clenching or grinding
Facial asymmetry caused by muscle imbalance
Tension headaches
Facial tightness or fatigue
Stress-related jaw and facial strain
Interest in non-invasive facial skin and muscle improvement
Desire to enhance a Biomimetic Smile Makeover™ or cosmetic dental work
Patients preparing for veneers, bonding, Invisalign®, or any cosmetic facial or dental treatment may also benefit from EMFACE®, as muscle harmony significantly influences facial aesthetics and smile design.
What to Expect During EMFACE® Treatment
Your treatment begins with the placement of comfortable adhesive applicators on the cheeks and forehead. These deliver synchronized radiofrequency heat and muscle activation throughout the session.
Session length: 20 minutes
Comfort level: Warm, soothing, and gentle
Recommended plan: 4–6 sessions for best results
Downtime: None
Many patients describe immediate relaxation and lightness in the face, with progressive improvements over the treatment series.
Benefits of EMFACE®
No Needles, No Pain, No Downtime
Patients return to normal activities immediately after treatment.
Lifted, More Defined Facial Appearance
Many patients see improvements in midface lift, cheek definition, and forehead elevation due to the HIFES™ muscle stimulation.
Improved Facial Muscle Balance
By strengthening certain muscles and relaxing others, EMFACE® helps the face move and rest in a more balanced state — improving daily comfort and overall facial expression.
A Natural Solution for TMJ and Facial Tension
EMFACE® helps release chronic muscle tightness in the masseter, temporalis, and surrounding structures. Patients dealing with clenching, grinding, or facial fatigue often experience noticeable relief.
Enhanced Blood Flow and Soft Tissue Recovery
Radiofrequency energy improves circulation and collagen support, helping reduce inflammation and supporting natural healing.
Better Foundation for Dental and Cosmetic Treatments
Balanced muscles support a healthier bite, improve TMJ comfort, and enhance outcomes for Invisalign® and cosmetic treatments.

EMFACE for TMJ Relief in New York City
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disorders can cause persistent jaw pain, facial tension, headaches, and difficulty chewing or opening the mouth. Many patients also experience teeth grinding (bruxism), jaw clenching, or clicking and popping sounds in the jaw joint. At our Upper East Side dental studio in Manhattan, we offer EMFACE® therapy as a non-invasive option to support patients experiencing TMJ-related muscle discomfort.
EMFACE is an advanced treatment that uses synchronized radiofrequency (RF) energy and HIFES™ muscle stimulation to improve muscle balance and circulation in the jaw area. The RF component gently warms the tissues to support blood flow and muscle relaxation, while HIFES technology activates targeted facial and jaw muscles to help reduce overactivity and restore more balanced function. EMFACE® for TMJ‑Related Muscle.
Unlike injections or surgical procedures, EMFACE treatments are needle-free, comfortable, and require no downtime, making them a convenient option for patients with busy lifestyles in New York City. Sessions typically last about 20 minutes, and most patients can immediately return to their normal daily activities following treatment.
How EMFACE Supports TMJ Therapy
TMJ symptoms often develop when jaw muscles become overactive due to stress, bite imbalance, trauma, or chronic clenching and grinding. EMFACE therapy focuses on improving muscle performance and circulation in the jaw area, helping reduce muscle spasms and discomfort while supporting a healthier range of motion.
This therapy may help provide:
Relief of muscle spasm symptoms
Improved jaw mobility and comfort
Increased local blood circulation
Support for balanced jaw muscle activity
Muscle re-education to reduce excessive clenching EMFACE® for TMJ‑Related Muscle
A Complementary Approach to TMJ Treatment
At our Manhattan dental practice, EMFACE is often used as part of a comprehensive TMJ care plan. Depending on the underlying cause of symptoms, it may be recommended alongside treatments such as custom night guards, bite therapy, or other therapeutic approaches designed to protect the teeth and jaw joints.
By supporting muscle function and circulation without injections or downtime, EMFACE can help enhance overall comfort and complement other TMJ therapies.
Personalized TMJ Care in Manhattan’s Upper East Side
If you are experiencing jaw tension, teeth grinding, or TMJ discomfort, a professional evaluation can help determine the most appropriate treatment approach. During your consultation, Dr. Marc Lazare will evaluate your symptoms, jaw function, and dental health to determine whether EMFACE therapy may be a beneficial part of your personalized TMJ treatment plan.

EMFACE Therapy NYC: Frequently Asked Questions
Is EMFACE® painful, and what is the recovery like?
EMFACE® is designed to be a comfortable, relaxing experience. Patients typically describe a warm, soothing sensation during the radiofrequency phase and a gentle pulsing feeling during the HIFES™ muscle activation. There is no pain, no needles, and no downtime whatsoever. You can return directly to work, meetings, or social engagements immediately after your session. Many patients notice an immediate sense of facial relaxation and lightness following treatment, with more visible lifting and toning developing progressively over the course of the treatment series. It is an ideal option for busy professionals in New York City who want meaningful results without disruption to their schedule.
How does EMFACE® complement cosmetic dental treatments like veneers or Invisalign®?
Facial muscle balance plays a significant role in the outcome and longevity of cosmetic dental work. When the muscles of the face and jaw are overactive, asymmetrical, or under chronic tension, they can affect bite alignment, facial symmetry, and the way a smile is framed. At our Upper East Side practice, EMFACE® is frequently recommended as a complement to Biomimetic Smile Makeovers™, porcelain veneers, Invisalign®, and full-mouth rehabilitations. By improving muscle harmony and reducing jaw tension before or alongside dental treatment, EMFACE® helps create a more balanced foundation — enhancing both the function and the aesthetic outcome of your smile.
Can EMFACE® help with TMJ pain and jaw tension?
Yes. At Lazare Biomimetic Dentistry & Smile Design, EMFACE® is offered not only as an aesthetic treatment but as a clinically thoughtful option for patients experiencing TMJ-related muscle discomfort. TMJ disorders often involve chronic overactivity of the masseter, temporalis, and surrounding jaw muscles — leading to jaw pain, teeth grinding (bruxism), clenching, tension headaches, and limited jaw mobility. EMFACE®'s synchronized radiofrequency and muscle stimulation work to improve local circulation, release chronic muscle tension, and support more balanced jaw muscle function. It is a needle-free, comfortable alternative that integrates naturally into a comprehensive TMJ care plan alongside custom nightguards, bite therapy, or infrared light treatments.
What is EMFACE® and how does it work?
EMFACE® is the first non-invasive facial treatment to simultaneously combine radiofrequency (RF) energy with HIFES™ high-intensity facial electromagnetic stimulation. The RF component gently warms the skin's deeper layers to support collagen production and circulation, while HIFES™ technology activates and tones the underlying facial muscles — lifting and defining the face without needles, incisions, or downtime. Each session lasts approximately 20 minutes, and most patients complete a series of 4–6 treatments for optimal, progressive results.
TMJ Symptoms EMFACE May Help Address
Patients experiencing TMJ-related muscle tension may benefit from EMFACE therapy if they notice:
Jaw pain or facial muscle soreness
Jaw clenching during stress or while awake
Teeth grinding (bruxism), especially at night
Difficulty opening the mouth fully
Jaw clicking or popping sounds
Facial tension or discomfort when chewing EMFACE® for TMJ‑Related Muscle …
While EMFACE is not intended to replace a comprehensive dental diagnosis or structural TMJ treatment, it can play an important role in supporting muscle relaxation and functional balance in the jaw.
