XERF

STRUCTURAL SKIN TIGHTENING
RADIOFREQUENCY SKIN TIGHTENING & BODY CONTOURING  •  NOW AVAILABLE

Xerf™ uses focused radiofrequency energy to heat deep tissue — stimulating collagen, tightening skin, and contouring the body from within. Treatments are comfortable, require no downtime, and take just 30–60 minutes, with optimal results visible 2–3 months after completing your series.

Sculpt, tighten & define

Xerf™ is ideal for anyone looking to address early skin laxity, smooth stubborn contours, or maintain results between more intensive treatments — all without surgery or injections.

What Is XERF

XERF is a monopolar radiofrequency platform. While lasers target surface pigments, blood vessels, or water using light energy, XERF delivers radiofrequency currents to heat tissues deep within the skin. This protects the outer skin surface while targeting the tissue layers underneath.

Unlike superficial treatments, XERF targets the deep structural layers where collagen and elastin fibers form the skin’s support scaffolding. During treatment, the device heats these tissues to contract existing collagen fibers. This contraction provides immediate smoothing, while the thermal energy prompts your body to build new collagen and remodel elastin over the next three to six months.

Your skin gradually becomes firmer, smoother, and more elastic. You achieve a refreshed appearance without looking overfilled or artificial.

Immediate Smoothing

The 6.78 MHz frequency heats the upper dermis. This thermal energy contracts existing collagen fibers, producing visible smoothing of fine lines and surface wrinkles during the session.

Elastin Remodeling

By heating the mid-dermal tissue, the energy triggers your body to rebuild its elastin network. This remodeling helps your skin bounce back and resist future sagging.

Structural Lifting

The 2.00 MHz frequency reaches the SMAS muscle layer and facial retaining ligaments. Stimulating these deep scaffolding tissues anchors the skin and lifts facial contours.

What XERF Treats

We use XERF to treat mild to moderate skin laxity on the face and body. The treatment works well for early to moderate signs of aging, particularly in areas where tissue has begun to sag.

Face and Neck

  • Lower Face and Jawline Reduces jowling and restores definition along the jawline. The energy tightens tissue around the cheeks to lift the lower facial structure.
  • Neck and Submental Area Firms skin under the chin and along the neck. Targets sagging related to collagen degradation, weight fluctuation, or postural strain.
  • Periorbital Area (Around the Eyes) Small electrode tips treat the thin skin around the eyelids. The cryogen cooling protects the surface while energy contracts collagen in the orbital area.
  • Midface and Cheeks Tightens skin along the cheekbones. The energy stimulates collagen in the deeper tissue plane that supports midface volume.

Body

  • Abdomen Firms loose abdominal skin after pregnancy or weight changes. The energy penetrates to the deeper tissue layers to tighten abdominal contours.
  • Arms, Thighs, and Knees Improves skin texture and elasticity on the upper arms, inner thighs, above the knees, and buttocks. Large electrode tips cover broader surface areas for efficient treatments.
  • Chest and Décolletage Addresses fine lines and laxity across the chest caused by sun damage and collagen loss.
  • Stretch Marks Deep heating and collagen stimulation improve the appearance and texture of stretch marks on the abdomen, thighs, and hips.

Recovery and Results

You do not need recovery time. Because the cooling gas protects your outer skin, the surface remains undamaged, letting you return to your routine immediately.

You may notice an initial tightening effect on the day of your treatment as your existing collagen fibers contract. Your skin will continue to firm and smooth over the following weeks. You will see the final results after three to six months as your body builds new collagen and remodels its elastin network.

We recommend a series of one to two sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. Each session builds on the previous treatment. You can schedule annual maintenance sessions to preserve your results.

Your results will last 12 months or longer. Your age, sun exposure, and skincare habits will influence how long the improvements last.

What to Expect During Your Treatment

You will start with a consultation where we examine your skin, discuss your goals, and design a treatment map for your target areas.

During the session, your provider moves the XERF handpiece across your skin. The integrated cooling system sprays cryogen gas to keep your skin surface comfortable. You do not need topical numbing creams or the 45-minute wait required by older radiofrequency devices.

You will feel a sensation similar to a warm massage. A facial treatment takes 30 to 45 minutes, while combining the face and neck requires 45 to 60 minutes. Body treatments vary depending on the size of the area.

After your session, your skin may look slightly pink or feel warm. This resolves within a few hours. You can apply your usual skincare products, wear makeup, exercise, and return to your daily activities immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

While you will see some initial tightening on the day of your treatment as existing collagen fibers contract, we recommend a series of two to three sessions spaced four to six weeks apart. This spacing allows your skin's natural collagen production to build progressively with each treatment, delivering the most significant lift.

You may notice a slight firming on the day of your treatment. The structural lift develops over the following weeks. Most patients notice changes in skin texture and tightness within two to four weeks, with full lifting and smoothing appearing after three to six months as new collagen matures.

No. XERF feels like a warm massage. The integrated cooling system sprays cold cryogen gas onto your skin surface throughout the treatment to keep you comfortable. This cooling protects your skin and removes the need for numbing creams or the long pre-session wait that older devices require.

You will not need downtime. Your skin may look slightly pink or feel warm for a few hours, but the surface remains undamaged. You can apply makeup, use your usual skincare, and return to work, exercise, or social activities immediately.

Your results will last 12 months or longer. The new collagen and remodeled elastin form a durable structural framework within your skin. Your age, sun exposure, and daily skincare habits will determine how long the lifting effects remain. We recommend scheduling an annual maintenance session to preserve your lift.

Yes. Radiofrequency energy targets the deep structural layers of the skin, not the pigment (melanin). This means XERF is safe for all skin tones and does not carry the hyperpigmentation risks associated with some laser systems.

Yes. You can combine XERF with other treatments. Since radiofrequency heats deep tissues, we recommend waiting two to four weeks after receiving fillers or Botox before treating the same area with XERF. We will sequence these sessions during your consultation to maximize your results.

Lasers target surface issues like sun spots, redness, and fine wrinkles using light energy. XERF uses radiofrequency currents to bypass the surface entirely, heating the deep dermis and SMAS layer to treat laxity and jowls. The two treatments target different depths, and we often combine them.

Do not receive XERF if you are pregnant, have active skin infections in the target zone, or have metal implants, pacemakers, or defibrillators. If you have severe skin sagging, we will discuss whether surgical options might better fit your goals.

The SMAS is the deep muscle-and-fascia sheet that plastic surgeons tighten during a facelift. XERF's 2.00 MHz frequency reaches this foundation without surgery. Heating the SMAS and its anchoring ligaments stimulates collagen production, helping lift sagging cheeks, define your jawline, and reduce jowls.

No. Many patients in their late twenties and thirties start XERF to stimulate collagen before sagging begins. Collagen production slows down in your mid-twenties. Early treatments help you maintain skin density and structure, delaying the signs of aging.

No. XERF does not cause unwanted facial fat loss. The system uses automated temperature controls and real-time impedance measurements to target the dermis and SMAS without reaching temperatures that damage fat cells, preserving your natural facial volume.
