Your Own Muscles, Not Injectables.
The TruWave™ EMS facial — what we call the facial workout — uses EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) to gently contract the muscles beneath your skin. Just as exercise tones and strengthens the muscles of your body, those gentle contractions tone and strengthen the facial muscles so your face looks firmer, more lifted and more sculpted. The lift you see comes from your own muscles getting stronger — not from a product placed into your skin.
It is needle-free, with no Botox® and no downtime — features that make it an easy, relaxing addition to your routine. A trained specialist guides a soft-tipped applicator over your face and neck; most clients describe it as a gentle tapping or tightening sensation. You walk in, lie back, and walk out ready for the rest of your day. Available at all four of our clinics across Montréal and Laval, and every plan starts with a free skin analysis and consultation. Individual results vary.

1-888-808-0955How the TruWave™ EMS Facial Works
EMS gently exercises the muscles beneath your skin so your face looks firmer and more lifted — needle-free, with no Botox® and no downtime. The lift comes from your own muscles, not a product.
A soft-tipped applicator delivers gentle electrical impulses that make the muscles beneath your skin contract — like a workout for your face while you simply relax. Just as exercise tones and strengthens the muscles of your body, these contractions tone and strengthen the facial muscles so your face looks firmer, more lifted and more sculpted. The result comes from your own muscles getting stronger. Most clients feel a gentle tapping or tightening. Individual results vary.
The TruWave™ EMS facial is needle-free — there are no injections, no Botox®, and nothing placed into your skin. Because it is non-invasive, there is no recovery: you can return straight to work, errands or your day. These are features of the treatment, not medical claims — they simply make the facial workout a relaxing, low-commitment addition to your skincare routine across our Montréal and Laval clinics.
What the EMS Facial Helps With
The facial workout focuses on the look of firmness and lift across the face and neck. By gently toning your own facial muscles, the TruWave™ EMS facial supports a firmer, more defined appearance in the areas clients tell us they notice most. It does not treat any medical condition — it is a needle-free way to help your face look more lifted and toned. Individual results vary, and your specialist will set realistic expectations at your free consultation in Montréal or Laval.

Who Is the EMS Facial For?
The facial workout suits a wide range of people who want a firmer, more lifted look without needles or downtime. Below are some of the clients who love it most across our Montréal and Laval clinics. Wherever you are in your skincare journey, your specialist will help you decide if it is a good fit at your free consultation. Individual results vary.
EMS Facial vs. Other Options
There are many ways to approach a firmer, more youthful-looking face, and each one works differently and has its own role. The table below explains what each option does and where it tends to fit, so you can see how the needle-free EMS facial compares — not as a substitute for anything, but as one distinct choice among several. Your specialist can help you understand which suits your goals at your free consultation in Montréal or Laval.
| Option | How It Works (Mechanism) | Where It Fits |
|---|---|---|
| TruWave™ EMS Facial | Contracts your own facial muscles with gentle electrical muscle stimulation to tone and strengthen them — needle-free, non-invasive. | For people who want a firmer, more lifted look from their own muscles, with no needles and no downtime. Results are temporary and maintained with periodic sessions. Individual results vary. |
| Botox® | An injectable that relaxes muscle to soften the look of expression lines and wrinkles. | For people specifically looking to soften dynamic expression lines (such as frown lines). A different mechanism aimed at a different goal; administered by a qualified medical injector. |
| Dermal Filler | An injectable gel that adds volume beneath the skin to restore or reshape contour. | For people who want to address lost volume or reshape specific areas. It fills rather than tones; a separate approach with its own role, administered by a qualified medical injector. |
| Microcurrent Facials | Uses very low-level current intended to stimulate facial muscles and skin during a facial treatment. | For people who enjoy a gentle, spa-style facial with a muscle-stimulation element. Related in spirit to EMS but a distinct treatment; ask your specialist how they differ. |
| Surgical Facelift | A surgical procedure that lifts and repositions deeper tissue, performed by a surgeon under anaesthetic. | For people seeking a surgical change, with the recovery and considerations surgery involves. A wholly different category from a needle-free facial; discuss with a qualified surgeon. |
| At-Home Toning Gadgets | Consumer devices designed for self-use at home, typically at lower intensities than professional equipment. | For people who want a convenient at-home routine. A professional, specialist-guided session is a different experience; many clients use both for different reasons. |
This table is for general information only and is not medical advice. The EMS facial is a needle-free esthetic treatment for the look of firmness and lift — it is not a medical procedure and does not do what injectable or surgical options do. Botox® is a registered trademark of its respective owner. Always consult a qualified professional about which option is right for you. Individual results vary.
Comfortable & Suitable for All Skin Tones
Because the TruWave™ EMS facial is needle-free and works by gently stimulating muscle — not by using light or heat that targets melanin or pigment in the skin — it is suitable for all skin tones and every Fitzpatrick type. There is no concern about the treatment reacting differently with deeper or lighter complexions. It is gentle, comfortable, and has no downtime, so it fits easily into any routine. As always, your specialist will review your skin and any contraindications with you first at your free consultation in Montréal or Laval. Individual results vary.
Individual results vary; before-and-after shown is not a guarantee of results.
EMS Facial Packages & Series
A single TruWave™ EMS facial is $125. Because results build over a series, most clients choose a course of sessions — and series packages are available so you can save compared with booking sessions one at a time. We'll recommend the right number of sessions, and share current series package options, at your free skin analysis and consultation. There's no obligation, and every plan starts with that complimentary visit.
Best for: trying the facial workout or topping up between series. Results vary.
Best for: building and maintaining results. Results vary.
Best for: first-timers and anyone planning a series.
Frequently Asked Questions — Montréal & Laval
No — most clients find it comfortable and even relaxing. As the EMS gently contracts the muscles beneath your skin, you feel a soft tapping or light tightening sensation as a specialist moves the applicator over your face and neck. It is not painful, and there is no downtime afterward, so you can return straight to your day. If anything ever feels too strong, your specialist simply adjusts the intensity. We'll walk you through exactly what to expect at your free consultation in Montréal or Laval. Individual experiences vary.
Because the EMS facial works by toning your own muscles, results build gradually over a series rather than from a single visit — much like the way a body looks more toned after several workouts rather than just one. Many clients feel their skin looks fresher right after a session, while a firmer, more lifted look develops as you progress through a course. The number of sessions that suits you depends on your skin, your goals and your starting point, and results vary from person to person. At your free consultation in Montréal or Laval we'll recommend a plan and talk through series packages.
Results from an EMS facial are temporary. Just as the toning effect of exercise fades if you stop working out, the lifted look from the facial workout is maintained with periodic sessions rather than lasting indefinitely. Most clients complete an initial series and then return for occasional maintenance sessions to keep up their results. We never describe the effect as permanent — how long your individual results hold depends on your skin, your habits and how regularly you maintain them. Your specialist will suggest a realistic maintenance rhythm at your consultation. Individual results vary.
The TruWave™ EMS facial is generally well tolerated by most healthy adults. However, it is not suitable during pregnancy, for anyone with a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, for those with metal facial implants, or where there is an active facial infection or open skin lesion in the treatment area. Other conditions, such as epilepsy, may also be contraindications. This is not a complete list — please review your full history and any contraindications with a specialist first. At your free consultation in Montréal or Laval we'll confirm whether the facial workout is appropriate and safe for you.
They work differently and aim at different things. Botox® relaxes muscle to soften expression lines; an EMS facial contracts muscle to tone and lift. One is an injectable treatment that eases muscle movement, while the other is a needle-free facial that gently exercises the muscles so they look firmer and more lifted. We are not suggesting one does the job of the other — they are simply different approaches with different goals, and your specialist can help you understand which suits what you are looking for at your free consultation in Montréal or Laval.
No. The TruWave™ EMS facial is needle-free and non-invasive, so there is no recovery period. The session feels like a gentle tapping or tightening, and when it ends you can return straight to work, errands or your evening. Some clients notice their skin looks a little fresher right away. No downtime is one of the features that makes the facial workout so easy to add to a busy schedule at any of our four Montréal and Laval clinics. Individual experiences vary.
Yes. Because the TruWave™ EMS facial works by gently stimulating muscle — not by using light or heat that targets pigment in the skin — it is suitable for all skin tones and every Fitzpatrick type, from the lightest to the deepest complexions. There's no concern about the treatment reacting differently with different skin tones the way some light-based treatments can. It's gentle, needle-free and has no downtime. As always, your specialist will review your skin and any contraindications with you first at your free consultation in Montréal or Laval.
Absolutely. Many of our male clients choose the facial workout to support a sharper-looking jawline and a more defined neckline. It's discreet, comfortable and needle-free, with no downtime — so it's easy to fit in before heading back to work. As with everyone, a specialist will review your skin, goals and any contraindications at your free consultation in Montréal or Laval, then recommend whether a single session or a series suits you best. Individual results vary.
Before & After Your Facial
Arrive with Clean Skin
Come with makeup removed if you can, or arrive a little early so we can cleanse your skin. Clean skin helps the EMS applicator glide comfortably over your face and neck.
Hydrate Well
Drink plenty of water in the hours before your facial. Well-hydrated skin and muscles tend to respond more comfortably to the gentle muscle stimulation.
Skip Heavy Treatments First
If you've recently had injectables, peels or other facial procedures, let us know — we may suggest spacing them out. Your specialist will advise at your consultation.
Tell Us Your History
Let us know about pregnancy, a pacemaker or implanted electronic device, metal facial implants, epilepsy, or any active facial infection — these guide whether the EMS facial is right for you.
Resume Normal Life Immediately
There is zero downtime — go straight back to work, errands or your evening. Some clients feel a light, pleasant muscle awareness in the face, which is normal.
Keep Drinking Water
Continue hydrating afterward to support your skin and keep it looking fresh between sessions.
Care for Your Skin
Keep up a gentle skincare routine and sun protection. Healthy daily habits help your skin look its best alongside your facial workout sessions.
Stay Consistent
Follow the session cadence we map out at your consultation. EMS facial results build session over session, so consistency is key to maintaining a firmer, more lifted look. Individual results vary.
Most healthy adults who want a firmer, more lifted and more toned look from a needle-free facial are good candidates. The facial workout is a gentle, relaxing way to support a more sculpted appearance — not a medical treatment for any condition. It is not suitable during pregnancy, or for those with a pacemaker or implanted electronic device, metal facial implants, an active facial infection, or certain other conditions such as epilepsy. Your specialist will confirm what's safe and right for you during your free consultation at any of our four Montréal and Laval clinics.
Yes. The TruWave™ EMS facial pairs beautifully with our advanced facials for cleansing, hydration and glow, with Microneedling for skin texture, and with Laser Skin Rejuvenation for tone.
