What is XERF?
The next step, or the new gold standard, in the evolution of skincare is now available. It is Structural Skin Tightening, which is a treatment delivering all the skin-tightening, collagen-boosting power of radiofrequency, without numbing, needles, or any downtime. Obvious visible results, backed by science and designed for your comfort. Unlike conventional RF treatments, the XERF™ treatment will deliver energy deeper into your skin, reaching the shallow, middle, and deeper layers, where real change begins.
No two individuals are alike, and their skin treatments should not be either. The XERF system adapts to your unique skin profile using Accurate Impedance Feedback for a real-time analysis of your skin. With three depth settings and ten intensity levels, XERF treatment is an extremely personalized experience tailored specifically for you.
What Is XERF Skin Tightening?
XERF is an advanced, non-invasive radiofrequency treatment designed to improve the appearance of your sagging or loose skin while creating both firmer and more youthful-looking skin.
Unlike surgical procedure options, XERF requires no incisions, needles, or downtime, allowing you to return immediately to work and your normal daily activities. Think of it as a “LASER” treatment, but it bypasses the surface of the skin; therefore, there is no skin or epidermal injury, so there is no redness, scaling, or typical laser-associated downtime.
The XERF treatment works by delivering targeted radiofrequency energy into the skin with different pulse durations and at three depths. This stimulates collagen and elastin remodeling, which strengthens the skin’s internal support structure and improves firmness and elasticity.
This multi-layered and pulse-heating approach is unique and works even deeper than the dermis to tighten the ligaments attaching the deeper structures of the skin to the epidermis. These ligaments are the real anchors of the skin; therefore, they tether the multiple layers of tissue to create a taut and firmer appearance.
As new collagen and elastin form and the dermal structure strengthens, the skin becomes:
- Firmer.
- Smoother.
- More lifted in appearance.
- Better supported structurally.
