SKNCRAFT is proud to introduce XERF™, a next-generation radiofrequency technology designed to support structural skin tightening with no needles and no downtime. As one of the first aesthetics specialists in Houston Heights to offer this advanced treatment, we are excited to bring a new level of innovation to our clients seeking firmer, smoother, more resilient skin.
Developed by Cynosure Lutronic, XERF™ represents a new evolution in non-invasive skin rejuvenation. By delivering precisely controlled radiofrequency energy into multiple layers of the skin, the treatment supports collagen renewal and gradual skin tightening while maintaining a comfortable, treatment-room experience.
For clients looking to improve skin laxity, refine texture, or support long-term skin health without surgery or downtime, XERF™ offers a powerful yet elegant solution.
What Is XERF™ RF Skin Tightening?
XERF™ is the world’s first multi-frequency monopolar radiofrequency system, combining 6.78 MHz and 2 MHz energy to treat both superficial and deeper skin structures.
This dual-frequency technology allows laser specialists to target three key layers of the skin:
Superficial dermis
Mid-dermal connective tissue
Deeper structural support layers
By gently heating these layers, the treatment stimulates the skin’s natural regenerative response, encouraging the production of new collagen and elastin over time.
The result is progressive skin tightening, improved texture, and more refined contours, all while preserving a natural appearance.
How XERF™ Works
XERF™ uses monopolar radiofrequency energy delivered through a specialized treatment tip. The system’s Wave Fit™ pulse technology evenly distributes energy while maintaining a comfortable skin temperature.
Integrated cryogen cooling protects the outer skin surface, allowing deeper thermal stimulation without excessive discomfort.
This combination allows our SKNCRAFT team to deliver controlled energy into the skin where collagen remodeling occurs, helping support:
Skin tightening
Improved elasticity
Smoother texture
Refined facial contours
Unlike older RF technologies that treat a single depth, XERF™ addresses multiple structural layers, making it particularly effective for subtle lifting and skin refinement.
Why Clients Love XERF™
One of the most exciting aspects of XERF™ is how seamlessly it fits into modern aesthetic care.
Clients appreciate that the treatment delivers meaningful results without downtime or recovery.
Key Benefits of XERF™
Non-invasive treatment with no needles
Comfortable warming sensation during treatment
No numbing required
No social downtime
Progressive, natural-looking results
Safe for a wide range of skin tones
Many clients begin to notice improved skin firmness after the first one to two treatments, with optimal collagen remodeling continuing to develop over the following three to six months.
Who Is a Candidate for XERF™?
XERF™ is ideal for individuals seeking to address early or moderate signs of skin laxity while maintaining a natural, refreshed appearance.
It may be recommended for concerns such as:
Mild to moderate skin laxity
Early facial sagging
Fine lines and wrinkles
Loss of skin firmness
Uneven skin texture
Jawline or neck softening
Because radiofrequency energy does not rely on pigment, the treatment can be safely performed year-round and across most skin types.
During your consultation at SKNCRAFT, your laser specialist will evaluate your skin and determine whether XERF™ is the right treatment for your goals.
What to Expect During Treatment
A typical XERF™ treatment session is both efficient and comfortable.
Your provider will first evaluate the treatment area and customize the energy settings based on your skin condition and desired results.
During the procedure, the device is gently moved across the skin while delivering controlled radiofrequency energy. Most clients describe the sensation as a warm, relaxing heat.
Treatment sessions typically last 30–60 minutes, depending on the area treated.
Following the procedure, most clients can immediately return to normal daily activities.

At SKNCRAFT, each treatment we offer is thoughtfully chosen for its clinical integrity, safety profile, and ability to support long-term skin health. XERF™ distinguished itself as a technology that aligns seamlessly with our philosophy of intentional, results-focused aesthetic care.
Rather than aggressive treatments that require extended recovery, we prioritize solutions that help clients maintain healthy, resilient skin over time.
