We enjoy educating our clients here at BeachGlo Aesthetics about all of our treatments—including body and facial contouring. Because “facial contouring” is a popular treatment, there is a lot of misinformation about what it is and how it works.
In this blog, we’ll talk about the top 5 myths we address when it comes to facial contouring in Nags Head and reveal the facts.
Myth #1
Non-invasive treatments aren’t effective.
Fact #1
Non-invasive treatments can be just as effective as surgeries and injections. They may not be able to treat severe cases of sagging skin, wrinkles, and unwanted body fat, but they can make your appearance slimmer and younger while lifting your features and tightening your skin.
Myth #2
Facial contouring provides the same results as a facelift.
Fact #2
Here is the truth: facial contouring does not provide the same results as a facelift. A facelift is meant for those who have severe wrinkles, laxity, or loose skin. However facial contouring is still a great method to treat mild-to-moderate wrinkles and sagging skin. However, if your skin laxity is too severe for facial contouring, then it might be time to talk about getting a facelift.
Myth #3
Facial contouring means you need to get fillers and Botox.
Fact #3
You do not need to get any injectables for facial contouring. With Emface, you can restore volume to your features without any invasive procedures. Emface uses HIFES (high-intensity facial electro-stimulation) and RF (radiofrequency) to improve your facial muscle tone and increase collagen and elastin production for smoother skin.
Myth #4
Emface only smooths wrinkles.
Fact #4
Emface does target wrinkles and fine lines, but it can also improve the quality of your facial muscles. This helps restore lost volume to your face, accentuating your natural features and creating a more youthful appearance.
Myth #5
Emface results don’t last long.
Fact #5
Emface results last approximately 1 year after receiving a full Emface series. After that, we typically recommend getting 1 maintenance session every 2 to 3 months.
