How XERF Skin Tightening Works

XERF is a revolutionary non-surgical skin-tightening treatment that utilizes dual-frequency monopolar radiofrequency (RF) technology to address skin laxity, sagging, and the visible signs of aging. Unlike traditional RF treatments, which typically use a single frequency, XERF uses two different frequencies: 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz. This combination allows XERF to target multiple layers of the skin, including the dermis and SMAS (Superficial Musculoaponeurotic System), which is the same layer targeted during surgical facelifts.

The treatment works by delivering controlled thermal energy deep into the skin. This energy penetrates multiple layers of the skin to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. When the energy reaches the dermis, it triggers fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin—key proteins that are responsible for skin firmness, elasticity, and overall structure. As the skin reacts to the thermal energy, collagen fibers begin to contract, leading to an immediate tightening effect. Over time, as the body produces new collagen and elastin, the skin becomes firmer, smoother, and more lifted. The result is a more youthful appearance, with enhanced contours and less visible sagging, all achieved without surgery or injections.

What makes XERF particularly effective is its ability to address multiple layers of the skin. The dual-frequency RF energy is designed to heat both the superficial and deeper layers of the skin, creating a comprehensive treatment that works faster and more efficiently than traditional RF treatments.

XERF is ideal for individuals experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity or the early signs of aging, including drooping skin around the face and neck, fine lines, and a loss of volume. The treatment is effective for both the face and body, making it a versatile option for those looking to address various skin concerns.

Your XERF experience starts with a complimentary consultation with one of our skilled aesthetic providers. During this visit, we will evaluate your skin, address your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan tailored to help you reach your aesthetic goals. Yes, XERF can be combined with other aesthetic treatments to enhance and accelerate results. Many patients opt for combination treatments to address multiple aspects of facial and skin rejuvenation. XERF can be paired with Botox or other neuromodulators to address wrinkles caused by muscle movement, such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, or frown lines. Dermal fillers, such as hyaluronic acid-based products, can also be combined with XERF to restore volume to areas like the cheeks, under-eye hollows, and jawline, which are common areas of concern as we age.

By combining XERF with these treatments, you can address both the structural aspects of aging—such as skin laxity and loss of contour—and the functional aspects, such as wrinkles and volume loss. While XERF works to tighten and lift the skin, Botox helps relax the muscles that cause wrinkle formation, and dermal fillers restore lost volume for a more youthful and refreshed appearance. The synergy between these treatments ensures that each aspect of facial aging is addressed, leading to more comprehensive and long-lasting results.

It’s important to note that the combination of XERF with other treatments is a personalized approach and should be tailored to your unique skin concerns and goals. Beverly Hills MedSpa’s experienced providers can help you create a treatment plan that best meets your needs, ensuring that you achieve the most effective and harmonious results possible. Combining XERF with other treatments is also an option for patients looking to further improve skin texture and overall skin health.

The results from XERF are both immediate and long-lasting. One of the key benefits of this treatment is that it provides both immediate results and long-term improvements. Immediately after the treatment, patients may notice a subtle tightening of the skin due to the contraction of existing collagen fibers. However, the most significant changes typically develop over the course of several weeks to months as the body produces new collagen and elastin.

Within about one month after the treatment, patients can expect to see a noticeable lift in areas such as the jawline, cheeks, and neck. This is the point at which the collagen remodeling process begins to peak, and the skin starts to show increased firmness and elasticity. Over the next few months, the effects continue to improve as the collagen continues to mature and the skin becomes more toned and youthful. The full effects of the treatment can take up to three months to be fully visible, but the results can last for six months or more, depending on individual factors such as age, skin condition, and lifestyle.

To maintain the results from XERF, patients may need periodic touch-up treatments. These are generally recommended every six months, although some individuals may require them more frequently, depending on their skin’s response to the treatment. XERF is a long-lasting solution for skin tightening, but like any non-surgical treatment, maintenance is necessary to sustain optimal results over time. Many patients find that they can enjoy the benefits of XERF for an extended period with minimal follow-up treatments, making it a cost-effective and convenient option for long-term skin rejuvenation.

One of the most appealing aspects of XERF is that there is no significant downtime associated with the treatment. XERF is a non-invasive procedure, meaning there are no cuts, needles, or incisions involved. As a result, patients can resume their normal activities immediately after the treatment. This makes XERF an ideal option for individuals with busy schedules who want to improve their appearance without the need for lengthy recovery times.

During the treatment, patients may experience a mild warming sensation as the RF energy is delivered to the skin. Some patients may also feel a slight tingling or mild discomfort, but this is generally well-tolerated and does not require numbing or anesthesia. After the treatment, it is normal to experience some redness or warmth in the treated areas, similar to the feeling of mild sunburn. This typically subsides within a few hours, and patients can return to their daily activities without any major restrictions.

Since XERF has no significant downtime, it is an excellent option for individuals looking to improve their skin’s appearance without the hassle of recovery. Whether you’re preparing for a special event or simply want to enhance your natural beauty, XERF provides effective results with minimal disruption to your routine. The non-invasive nature of the treatment also makes it suitable for those who are sensitive to pain or who prefer less aggressive treatments compared to surgery or other invasive procedures.
