XERF Structural Skin Tightening

The world's first multifrequency monopolar radiofrequency treatment — deep, structural tightening for the face, neck, and body with no needles, no numbing, and no downtime.

About XERF

XERF is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment that firms and lifts lax skin by heating the deeper structural layers where collagen lives. It is the world's first multifrequency monopolar RF system, delivering two frequencies at once — 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz — to reach the shallow, middle, and deep layers of the skin in a single session, including the SMAS, the foundational tissue layer that supports lift. Built-in surface cooling keeps the treatment comfortable, so there are no needles, no numbing, and no downtime — just gradual, natural-looking tightening as your own collagen rebuilds.

How It Works

  1. 01

    Consultation

    Your dermatologist evaluates your skin and goals, confirms that XERF is the right fit, and maps the areas to treat along with the depth and intensity settings tailored to you.

  2. 02

    Treatment

    The XERF handpiece glides over each area, delivering dual-frequency radiofrequency energy while surface cooling protects the skin. You feel a warming sensation with each pass — no numbing is required. Session length depends on the area treated.

  3. 03

    Recovery & Results

    Mild warmth or redness may appear and typically fades within a few hours. There is no downtime, so you can return to normal activities right away. Tightening builds gradually over 8 to 12 weeks as new collagen forms, with best results from a short series spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart.

What to Expect

  • No downtime — return to normal activities immediately
  • Comfortable treatment with no needles and no numbing required
  • Mild warmth or redness that usually settles within a few hours
  • Gradual tightening that develops over 8 to 12 weeks as collagen rebuilds

  • Performed by board-certified dermatologists

Frequently Asked Questions

What is XERF?

XERF is a non-invasive, monopolar radiofrequency treatment for structural skin tightening. It is the first RF device to use two frequencies at once — 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz — heating the shallow, middle, and deep layers of the skin in a single session to stimulate collagen and elastin for a firmer, more lifted look on the face and body.

How is XERF different from other radiofrequency treatments?

Most RF devices use a single frequency and reach one depth. XERF delivers two frequencies simultaneously, so it can heat both the superficial connective tissue and the deeper fascial and structural layers — including the SMAS — at the same time. Paired with built-in surface cooling, it targets depth with comfort and without needles.

Does XERF hurt? Is numbing required?

No numbing is needed. Most patients describe the treatment as a comfortable warming sensation with each pass, thanks to the device's surface cooling. There are no needles involved.

Is there any downtime?

There is no downtime. You may notice mild warmth or redness that usually fades within a few hours, and you can return to your normal routine immediately — including make-up and skincare.

When will I see results, and how many sessions do I need?

Because XERF works by stimulating your own collagen, tightening develops gradually over 8 to 12 weeks. Most patients do best with a short series; a package of 2, scheduled 4 to 6 weeks apart, offers special pricing and is a popular starting point. Your dermatologist will recommend a plan at your consultation.

Can XERF be used on the body as well as the face?

Yes. In addition to the face and neck, XERF is used to firm areas of the body such as the abdomen, arms, thighs, glutes, knees, and elbows. Combination and full-body plans are available.

Is XERF a replacement for a facelift?

No. XERF is a non-surgical treatment best suited to mild-to-moderate laxity. It can meaningfully firm and refresh skin without surgery, but it does not replace the results of a surgical facelift. A consultation is the best way to understand what XERF can achieve for you.
