Who XERF May Help

XERF may be a good fit for adults noticing:

  • Mild to moderate skin laxity
  • Loss of facial firmness or definition
  • Early jowling along the lower face
  • Fullness or looseness under the chin
  • Neck laxity
  • Thin, crepey-feeling skin
  • Interest in collagen support without surgery

How XERF Works

XERF uses radiofrequency energy to gently warm the deeper layers of skin where collagen and elastin are produced. That controlled heat triggers your skin’s own repair process, encouraging new collagen while remodeling existing fibers for a firmer, tighter, smoother look over time.
Because XERF reaches shallow, middle, and deep layers in the same session, most treatments take about 30 minutes. Real-time impedance feedback lets your provider fine-tune the energy level throughout your appointment based on how your skin responds.
  1. Delivers targeted RF energy to multiple skin depths
  2. Stimulates natural collagen production
  3. Tightens and remodels existing collagen
  4. Improves skin firmness gradually over time
  5. No surgery, needles, or lengthy recovery

Why FABrx Studio
