For patients who want firmer, smoother-looking skin without surgery, needles, or planned downtime, radiofrequency treatments have become an increasingly popular option. XERF™ is a newer approach that uses multifrequency monopolar radiofrequency energy to deliver controlled heat at several tissue depths.

SkinHealth now offers XERF in Coral Gables as part of our personalized approach to non-invasive skin rejuvenation.

What is XERF?

XERF is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment designed to support collagen remodeling and improve the appearance of mild skin laxity. Unlike a laser, which uses light energy, XERF uses radiofrequency energy. The system combines 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz frequencies to reach shallow, middle, and deeper tissue levels.

The technology includes three depth settings and ten intensity levels. Accurate Impedance Feedback evaluates how the skin responds during treatment, helping the provider personalize energy delivery. Integrated cooling is used to maintain the skin’s surface temperature and support patient comfort.

What concerns may XERF address?

XERF may be considered for patients concerned about mild laxity, reduced firmness, early jowling, or changes in facial definition. By delivering controlled radiofrequency energy below the skin’s surface, the treatment supports the body’s natural collagen-remodeling process.

Results vary. XERF is not a replacement for surgery, and the most appropriate treatment depends on your anatomy, skin quality, goals, and medical history.

What does a XERF treatment feel like?

Patients generally experience warmth as energy is delivered. XERF is designed to be performed without needles or required numbing. Because the skin is not cut or ablated, patients typically do not need planned downtime, although temporary redness, warmth, or sensitivity may occur.

When will results appear?

Some patients may notice an early change in firmness, while collagen remodeling develops gradually over the following weeks and months. The number of treatments recommended depends on the patient and the treatment plan established during consultation.

Is XERF right for everyone?

No aesthetic treatment is right for every person. A consultation allows your provider to assess the area, discuss expectations, review relevant medical history, and determine whether XERF or another option better fits your goals.
