The cameras in Beverly Hills are unforgiving when subtle skin laxity along your jawline shows up in every selfie and candid. A full surgical lift requires weeks off the calendar, but ignoring the changes your face is undergoing isn't an option. Our clinic provides non-surgical skin tightening for patients who want structural skin support without going under the knife.
XERF is a non-invasive treatment that uses dual-frequency radiofrequency energy to heat the deeper layers of dermal tissue. This controlled thermal energy creates an immediate tightening effect that triggers collagen remodeling to reduce sagging skin without incisions.
Older radiofrequency treatments flooded the tissue with generalized heat. It felt unpredictable. XERF skin tightening relies on a precise energy delivery system that changes our clinical approach. The device features wave fit pulse technology, allowing our providers to target multiple tissue depths in a single pass. We deliver controlled heat to the exact dermal layer required to tighten skin. Your unique skin condition dictates the protocol we build. This dual frequency system targets existing collagen fibers for instant contraction, while signaling your body to start producing new tissue. Over the following months, new collagen forms as you build a denser foundation.
The benefits of XERF extend past the initial glow. Patients achieve optimal results through a few distinct physical shifts:
The right candidate wants a tighter profile without a scalpel. You notice the skin under your chin getting soft, but an operating room doesn't fit your schedule. You must also hold realistic expectations: XERF relies on human biology, so you won't wake up tomorrow looking a decade younger. Tissue takes time to rebuild. You are choosing a gradual return to a firm jawline over an overnight illusion. If your skin requires a surgical lift, our team will turn you away.
When you arrive at our practice, our team applies a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort. You sit back, and the provider glides the radiofrequency handpiece across the designated treatment areas.
You will feel a prickly heat building in the tissue. Most patients describe a deep tightening sensation as the energy delivery targets multiple depths. The pulse technology manages the heat. The process remains comfortable.
You will leave the clinic looking pink, but the flush fades fast. This procedure features minimal downtime, and most patients resume their normal activities right away. You must maintain strict sun protection. The intense sunlight driving through the hills destroys new collagen before it matures. Your skin continues to rebuild protein for months after your visit, resulting in a steady increase in collagen and elastin. We recommend a personalized treatment plan tailored to your daily routine for ongoing care.
XERF works best over time, which means you won't see much change on day one. While you leave the clinic with a mild flush and an initial surface contraction, the real work happens behind the scenes over the next 90 days or so. Your body builds fresh collagen fibers, the jawline tightens, and you stop tilting your chin up in photos. These structural changes persist for twelve to eighteen months. Because the intense Beverly Hills sun degrades collagen fast, you must wear broad-spectrum SPF.
Our facial plastic surgeons spend their days manipulating the deep anatomical layers of the face, muscle, and neck. They understand tissue tension. Most clinics buy radiofrequency devices to bulk up a generic menu of services, but we brought the XERF platform into our Beverly Hills surgical center for a different reason. It offers exact depth control, and we can target the precise dermal layer needed to delay a facelift. We evaluate your anatomy first. If a non-surgical treatment can't fix your laxity, our providers will tell you the truth and find a treatment that suits you perfectly.
Stop guessing about your skin laxity. An in-person evaluation provides a clear path forward. Contact our Beverly Hills office to meet with our clinical team. We will build a specific protocol for your face.
