A treatment designed around you
What to expect
Manufactured by Cynosure Lutronic, XERF combines 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz monopolar radiofrequency energy. Its adjustable depth and intensity settings allow your provider to customize treatment, while integrated cooling is designed to support comfort. A consultation determines whether XERF is appropriate for you.
Who it's a good fit for
- Adults with mild to moderate loose skin on the face, neck, abdomen, arms or thighs
- People who want firmer skin without surgery or long recovery
- Anyone with skin laxity after weight loss who is at a stable weight
Who it may not suit
- Significant excess skin that may need surgical removal
- Pregnancy, or certain implanted electronic devices
- Anyone wanting fat removal as the main goal — body contouring treatments fit better
