Lift, Tighten, and Define with XERF
XERF Radiofrequency Structural Skin Tightening at CGO Med Aesthetics is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that strengthens skin at its foundation. By delivering controlled radiofrequency energy into the superficial, mid, and deep layers of the skin, XERF stimulates collagen remodeling and elastin renewal for firmer, smoother, more sculpted skin in San Diego, CA, with no needles and no downtime.
How XERF Works
XERF is the first multifrequency monopolar radiofrequency platform, combining 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz frequencies to reach multiple depths of tissue, including the SMAS layer that is also addressed in surgical facelifts. Real-time impedance feedback continuously monitors your skin and adjusts energy delivery, so every pass is precise and personalized. An integrated cryogen cooling system protects the skin’s surface, keeping treatment comfortable without numbing cream.
Conditions Treated with XERF
XERF is effective for a wide range of skin concerns, including:
- Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Smooths visible lines around the eyes, mouth, and forehead for a refreshed, youthful look.
- Skin Laxity: Firms and lifts sagging skin on the cheeks, jawline, and neck for more definition.
- Texture Irregularities: Improves overall tone and texture by encouraging natural cellular regeneration.
- Loss of Definition: Restores structure and elasticity for a firmer, more contoured appearance.
- Body Laxity: Tightens loose skin on the arms, abdomen, and thighs.
For deeper texture concerns such as acne scarring, XERF can be paired with Exion RF microneedling or Agnes RF microneedling.

XERF Skin Tightening FAQs
What is XERF and how is it different from other RF skin tightening treatments?
XERF is the first multifrequency monopolar radiofrequency skin tightening system. It combines 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz frequencies to treat superficial, mid, and deep layers of skin, including the SMAS, and uses real-time impedance feedback to personalize energy delivery without needles.
Is XERF painful?
XERF uses integrated cryogen cooling, so most patients tolerate it well without numbing cream. It typically feels like a comfortable warming sensation, often rated around 2 to 3 out of 10.
Is there any downtime after XERF?
No. You may notice mild redness or warmth for a few hours, but you can return to normal activities immediately.
How many XERF treatments will I need?
Most patients benefit from at least two treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. Those with moderate laxity may benefit from a third session.
When will I see results from XERF?
Some patients notice subtle tightening right away, with more meaningful improvement developing over 4 to 12 weeks as new collagen and elastin form.
Who is a good candidate for XERF?
XERF is ideal for adults with mild to moderate skin laxity and textural changes who want natural-looking tightening without surgery. It is not a replacement for a surgical facelift.
What areas can XERF treat?
XERF is commonly used on the face, jawline, neck, forehead, and under-eye area, and can also treat the arms, abdomen, breasts, and thighs.
