XERF Skin Tightening in Porter Ranch, CA

What is XERF?

XERF™ by Cynosure Lutronic is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses multifrequency monopolar radiofrequency (RF) energy. XERF combines two frequencies, 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz, which allows the energy to be delivered at different depths of the skin, including the deeper supportive layer known as the SMAS. XERF received FDA 510(k) clearance in 2025. Treatments involve no needles, no numbing, and no downtime, making XERF an option for clients who want to address loose skin without surgery.

Treatment Areas

XERF is designed for structural skin tightening of the face, the jawline, and the neck. It can be a good option for concerns such as skin laxity, a softening jawline, neck lines, and other signs of aging skin.

Who is a Good Candidate for XERF?

XERF may be a good fit for adults who are noticing mild to moderate skin laxity on the face, jawline, or neck and who prefer a non-invasive approach with no recovery time. Because there are no needles, it can also appeal to clients who would rather avoid injections or microneedling. RF treatments are not right for everyone; please tell us if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device, have metal implants in the treatment area, or have any medical conditions, so we can confirm whether XERF is appropriate for you.

What to Expect During Your Treatment

Your visit begins with a consultation to review your goals and the areas you would like to treat. Because XERF does not require numbing, treatment can begin once your skin is cleansed and prepared. Your provider then moves the XERF handpiece over the treatment area to deliver radiofrequency energy. Most clients describe a warming sensation. After treatment, you can return to your normal routine right away. Changes in skin firmness develop gradually as the skin responds over time, and your provider will recommend a treatment plan based on your skin and goals.

Aftercare Basics

There is no downtime after XERF. Some clients notice temporary redness or warmth in the treated area, which typically fades shortly after the session. Keep your skin hydrated, use a gentle skincare routine, and wear sunscreen daily to protect your results.
