EmFace vs WonderFace: A Comprehensive Comparison

EmFace and WonderFace are non-invasive facial treatments that aim to enhance muscle tone, skin texture, and contour, helping to reduce wrinkles and signs of ageing. While both treatments utilise specialised technologies and share several similarities, recognising their distinctions can help you decide which option best suits your aesthetic goals.

How EmFace and WonderFace Work

Both EmFace and WonderFace focus on facial muscle stimulation and improving skin quality, but they use different technologies to achieve results.

EmFace

EmFace combines high-intensity facial electrical stimulation (HIFES) with radiofrequency (RF) energy:

HIFES: Delivers electrical impulses across broad regions of the face, causing muscle contractions that lift and tone facial muscles. This approach is effective for overall facial rejuvenation but lacks precision for targeting specific areas.

RF Energy: Gently heats deeper layers of the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin production to tighten the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines.

WonderFace

WonderFace uses synchronised inductive monopolar RF combined with neuromuscular emissions:

Monopolar RF: Penetrates deeply into tissues to enhance collagen production, improving skin elasticity and long-term tightness.

Neuromuscular Emissions: Activate specific muscle groups, enabling precise muscle toning. This allows for targeted contouring and real-time adjustments during sessions based on individual patient needs.

Comparing Key Benefits: EmFace vs WonderFace

Both treatments use applicator pads to deliver energy and stimulate facial muscles, requiring multiple sessions for best results. However, there are some notable differences.

Treatment Duration and Frequency

EmFace
Each session lasts about 20 minutes. A typical treatment course requires 4-8 sessions spaced one week apart. This allows for gradual collagen build-up and muscle toning. A maintenance program is recommended to sustain the results over time.

WonderFace
Each session takes about 25 minutes. Treatments are recommended with at least 48 hours between sessions. A typical course involves 4-8 sessions, with the number of treatments adjusted based on individual needs. Similar to muscle strengthening for the body, monthly maintenance is recommended to keep the muscles active.

Treatment Results

EmFace
Results from EmFace treatments develop gradually over several weeks as collagen and elastin levels increase in the skin. Patients typically notice full outcomes approximately three months after their initial treatment. To maintain long-term improvements, periodic maintenance sessions may be necessary.

WonderFace
With WonderFace, visible improvements can appear earlier in the treatment process. However, multiple sessions are recommended to achieve optimal and lasting results. The combination of neuromuscular emissions and monopolar RF technology facilitates quicker initial effects, while follow-up sessions help ensure durable outcomes over time.

Customisation Settings

EmFace
EmFace provides general facial rejuvenation by targeting multiple areas across the entire face, including the forehead, cheeks, and jawline. The primary focus is on overall toning and tightening, with limited customisation beyond muscle activation across treated regions.

WonderFace
WonderFace provides tailored treatments with five customisable settings for muscle toning, lifting, tightening, improving skin texture, and recovery. These settings allow for precise adjustments during each session, enabling targeted enhancements in specific areas of the face.

Cost Comparison

EmFace
EmFace treatments cost SGD 1,600 per session. A package of 4 sessions may cost between SGD 5,000 and SGD 6,000, with the typical course involving one session per week.

WonderFace
Costs SGD 450 per session. A package of 5 -10 sessions costs between SGD 1,999 and SGD 3,999 based on the number of sessions required and the patient’s specific treatment goals.

Conclusion

Both EmFace and WonderFace provide effective, non-invasive solutions for facial toning and rejuvenation. However, WonderFace stands out as a more customisable and affordable option, offering quicker visible results and requiring fewer sessions. Its precision settings make it suitable for patients with specific contouring goals, such as enhancing the jawline or cheeks.
