Focusing on facial muscles that change with age, aiming for natural lifting and skin quality improvement

IRVINE, Calif. -- SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated (Nasdaq: SBC) ("SBC Medical" or the "Company"), a Medical Services Organization providing management support across a wide range of healthcare fields, today announced that NEO Skin Clinic Ginza, a clinic receiving management support from the Company, has commenced offering "EMFACE," a non-invasive treatment that combines HIFES™ (High-Intensity Facial Electrical Stimulation) and Synchronized RF (Radiofrequency) to tighten facial muscles and improve skin quality, effective June 9, 2026.

In recent years, interest in non-invasive treatments that do not involve scalpels has been increasing in aesthetic healthcare. Facial sagging and changes in the facial contour with age are caused not only by a decrease in skin firmness and elasticity, but also by changes in the facial muscles that support the entire face. Against this background, NEO Skin Clinic Ginza has introduced "EMFACE," a treatment device focusing on the facial muscles themselves, in addition to traditional approaches targeting the skin and fat layers. The clinic aims to provide more personalized anti-aging care tailored to each customer's concerns and conditions, including combinations with existing treatments.

EMFACE is a non-invasive lifting and skin quality improvement treatment. HIFES™ stimulates facial muscles to address age-related changes, while Synchronized RF delivers thermal energy to the dermis, supporting the production of collagen and elastin to help maintain and improve skin firmness and elasticity. By targeting both the skin and facial muscles simultaneously, it aims for skin quality improvement and facial line tightening. Because it uses no scalpels or needles, downtime is minimal, and makeup can be applied immediately after the procedure.

Side Effects & Risks: Temporary redness (erythema), warmth, or sensations similar to muscle soreness or fatigue may occur, with individual variations. This treatment is a self-funded procedure and is not covered by public medical insurance.

Comment from Dr. Soichiro Morikawa, Director of NEO Skin Clinic Ginza
"Recently, we have seen an increase in consultations from customers wishing to maintain a youthful impression with changes that are as natural as possible. 'EMFACE' is a treatment that focuses not only on the skin but also on the facial muscles that support the face. We expect it to be a new option, especially for those concerned about mild to moderate sagging and reduced skin elasticity. Furthermore, one of its key features is that it can easily address a wider range of concerns when combined with other device-based treatments or injectables. At our clinic, we will continue to propose tailor-made treatments while closely aligning with each customer's concerns and conditions."

SBC Medical continuously incorporates advanced medical knowledge from both domestic and international sources while promoting the enhancement of knowledge and technical standards through specialized education. In the rapidly evolving field of aesthetic healthcare, the Company thoroughly pursues safety and reproducibility under its own strict verification system, and flexibly introduces new treatments utilizing the latest technology. Moving forward, the Company will continue to strive for safety, transparency, and sustainable value enhancement based on global standards.
