SKIN TIGHTENING

XERF

XERF is a radiofrequency treatment designed to improve skin laxity, firmness, and overall skin quality, without needles or downtime. By delivering controlled thermal energy deep into the tissue, XERF stimulates collagen and elastin production at a cellular level, helping to gradually lift, tighten, and refine the skin.

What makes XERF unique is its ability to work beneath the surface while preserving the integrity of the skin barrier. This allows us to support structural changes in the skin without unnecessary disruption, making it an ideal option for patients seeking natural-looking rejuvenation with minimal recovery.

At Uptown Skin and Aesthetics, XERF is often incorporated into a thoughtfully sequenced treatment plan, ensuring your skin is properly prepared and able to respond optimally. The result is firmer, more resilient skin that continues to improve over time.

SKINTYTE

SkinTyte is a non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses advanced infra-red light delivered in gentle pulses to deeply heat the skin, stimulating the deep dermis to initiate the body’s natural healing process that leave the skin firmer, tighter, and younger-looking. Reduce sagging skin and restore your skin’s youthfulness with the power of light!

As we age, skin loses its youthful firmness and cushion. Especially around the jawline and neck, it can add years to your appearance. And while no one escapes the forces of aging and gravity, SkinTyte can defend against them. SkinTyte uses advanced infrared light to deeply heat your skin while cooling and protecting the entire treated surface. Light energy is delivered in rapid, gentle pulses to initiate the body’s natural healing process, which leads to the appearance of increased skin firmness.

SkinTyte can treat most areas of the body where improvement is desired, giving you the appearance of firmer, youthful looking skin. The result is a gradual, natural improvement in skin laxity that continues to refine over time.

Frequently Asked Questions - XERF

What is XERF and how does it work?

XERF is a non-invasive radiofrequency treatment that uses controlled heat to stimulate collagen and elastin production deep within the skin. This process helps improve firmness, elasticity, and overall skin quality over time.

What areas can be treated?

XERF can be used on the face, neck, jawline, and body. Common areas include the lower face, under the chin, abdomen, arms, and above the knees—anywhere skin laxity is a concern.

Does it hurt?

Most patients describe XERF as a warm, comfortable treatment. The energy is delivered in a controlled way, so it’s very tolerable without the need for numbing.

Is there any downtime?

There is little to no downtime. You may have mild redness or warmth immediately after treatment, but this typically resolves within a few hours, allowing you to return to normal activities the same day.

How many treatments will I need?

While some patients notice improvement after a single session, a series of treatments is typically recommended for optimal results. Your plan will be personalized based on your skin’s condition and goals.

When will I see results?

Some initial tightening can be seen early on, but the most noticeable results develop gradually over several weeks to months as new collagen is produced.

How long do results last?

Results can last several months and continue to improve with a series. Maintenance treatments are recommended to support ongoing collagen production and long-term skin health.

Is XERF safe for all skin types?

Yes, XERF is safe for all skin types because it uses radiofrequency energy rather than light-based technology, making it a versatile option for a wide range of patients.

How is XERF different from other skin tightening treatments?

XERF delivers energy at precise depths to stimulate collagen without disrupting the surface of the skin. This allows for effective tightening while maintaining skin integrity and minimizing downtime.

Can XERF be combined with other treatments?

Absolutely. XERF pairs well with treatments like MOXI, BBL HEROic, microneedling, and injectables. At Uptown, we often incorporate it into a comprehensive, barrier-first treatment plan to enhance overall results.
