Patient Testimonial
WHAT IS XERF™?
XERF™ is an FDA-cleared, multifrequency monopolar radiofrequency (RF) system designed to firm and lift the skin without surgery, needles, or recovery time. It is the first of its kind to combine two frequencies in a single treatment session, allowing controlled RF energy to reach the skin’s shallow, middle, and deep layers simultaneously, including the SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system), the same foundational layer addressed during a surgical facelift. By delivering precise, controlled warmth to these deeper tissues, this skin-tightening treatment stimulates the body’s own collagen production, gradually firming and tightening from the inside out.
The Alchemy Clinic is the first provider in New Hampshire to bring this technology to patients. As a non-surgical skin-tightening option in Manchester, NH, XERF™ offers a clinically meaningful option for those experiencing mild to moderate laxity who want a structured, evidence-based path forward without a surgical commitment.
HOW XERF™ WORKS
XERF™ delivers radiofrequency energy at multiple depths through a single handpiece, targeting the tissue layers where collagen and structural support are found. What sets this system apart from standard RF skin-tightening options in Manchester, NH, is its built-in adaptive pulse technology paired with an active surface cooling system. Every pulse delivers energy to the tissue while simultaneously cooling the skin surface, eliminating the need for numbing cream, needles, or any recovery period. Depth and intensity settings are fully adjustable, so each session is customized to your specific tissue and concerns.
Most patients describe the experience as a steady warming sensation accompanied by a cooling touch. Sessions are well-tolerated from start to finish, and you can return to your normal schedule immediately after leaving the clinic.
WHAT XERF™ CAN ADDRESS
XERF™ is designed for patients experiencing mild to moderate skin laxity and the early to moderate signs of facial aging. Specific concerns it can help address include:
- A softening or less defined jawline
- Early jowling and reduced firmness along the lower face
- Crepey or lax skin along the neck
- An overall loss of structural tightness related to collagen decline
- General loss of facial firmness that diet, exercise, and topical products have not resolved
XERF™ pairs well with other treatments offered at The Alchemy Clinic. During your consultation, your provider will assess whether XERF™ on its own or as part of a combined plan best suits your goals.
WHY CHOOSE XERF™ FOR NON-SURGICAL SKIN TIGHTENING?
XERF™ stands apart from other non-invasive skin tightening options because it is the only multifrequency monopolar RF system capable of treating multiple tissue depths, including the SMAS layer, in a single session. Here is what makes it a meaningful choice for patients in Manchester, NH:
- Multifrequency Technology: Two frequencies work together to address shallow, mid, and deep tissue layers simultaneously, delivering more comprehensive structural remodeling than single-frequency RF devices.
- Built-In Cooling System: Active surface cooling with every pulse allows for comfortable treatment without numbing agents, needles, or pre-treatment preparation.
- No Downtime: Patients return to their normal activities immediately. There is no required recovery period, no dressings, and no activity restrictions following a session.
- Fully Customized Protocols: Depth and intensity settings are adjusted from session to session based on your tissue response and evolving goals, rather than a preset protocol.
- Assessment-First Approach: At The Alchemy Clinic, we evaluate your skin and discuss your goals before recommending any treatment. If this treatment is not the right fit for your concerns, we will tell you directly.
- First in New Hampshire: The Alchemy Clinic is the first practice in New Hampshire to offer XERF™, which means our team has been trained and certified in this technology from day one.
TREATMENT AREAS
Multiple areas of the face and neck where laxity and loss of firmness are a concern can be treated in a single session. Treatable areas include:
- Jawline and Lower Face: Addresses early jowling and softening of jaw definition, supporting a firmer, more structured lower-face contour.
- Cheeks and Mid-Face: Supports lift and firmness across the mid-facial region where collagen loss tends to show first.
- Neck and Submental Area: Targets crepey or lax skin along the neck and under the chin, an area where many patients notice early structural change.
- Perioral Area: The skin around the mouth can benefit from tightening and improved texture as collagen production in the surrounding tissue is stimulated.
Your provider will confirm which areas are appropriate for you based on your individual assessment.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Treatment with XERF™ requires no preparation, recovery, or disruption to your schedule. Here is what a typical experience looks like:
Before Your Appointment
Arrive with clean skin; no numbing cream or special preparation required. Your provider will review your health history and perform a skin assessment at your initial consultation before any treatment.
During Your Treatment
The handpiece is applied to the treatment area, delivering controlled RF energy while simultaneously cooling the skin surface. Intensity is adjusted throughout to keep the experience comfortable, with no needles involved at any point.
After Your Appointment
You may notice mild, temporary redness or warmth in the treated area, which typically resolves quickly. No downtime is required, and you can resume normal activities right away.
RESULTS: WHAT TO REALISTICALLY EXPECT
This treatment produces gradual results as the body rebuilds collagen in the weeks and months following each session. Many patients begin to notice increased firmness within a few weeks, with the full extent of improvement typically visible over a three to six-month period. Individual results vary based on skin condition, age, lifestyle factors, and the number of sessions completed; a personalized maintenance schedule will be recommended to help sustain your results.
Results are not permanent, and this technology is not a substitute for surgery in cases of significant or advanced sagging. Part of our role at The Alchemy Clinic is to be straightforward with you about what can and cannot be achieved, so your plan is always grounded in what is appropriate for your skin.
IS XERF™ RIGHT FOR YOU?
The best candidates are typically in good overall health, have mild to moderate laxity, and are interested in a non-surgical path to firmer, more structured skin. Ideal candidates include those who:
- Notice early changes along the jawline, neck, or mid-face, but are not ready for a surgical procedure.
- Have tried topical approaches for loose skin treatment without satisfactory results.
- Want a treatment that fits into a busy schedule with no recovery time.
- Are looking for a skin rejuvenation approach that works with their body’s own collagen response.
Certain medical conditions, implanted electronic devices, pregnancy, and other individual health factors may make this treatment unsuitable. A thorough consultation is the only reliable way to determine candidacy, and we will never recommend treatment until that assessment is complete.
FAQ
What is XERF™ Skin Tightening?
XERF™ is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive skin tightening treatment that uses multifrequency monopolar RF energy to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin, encouraging the body’s collagen production to gradually firm and lift tissue over time. It requires no needles, no numbing, and no downtime.
How is XERF™ different from other RF treatments?
Most RF devices operate at a single frequency and treat only one tissue depth at a time, while XERF™ uses two frequencies simultaneously to reach the shallow, mid, and deep layers of the skin, including the SMAS layer. Its active cooling system also enables it to deliver this energy comfortably without the need for numbing agents.
Is there any downtime after XERF™?
There is no recovery period, and you can return to your usual activities immediately following treatment. Some patients notice mild, temporary redness or warmth in the treated area, which typically settles quickly.
When will I see results, and how long do they last?
Many patients start to see improvement within a few weeks, with the full outcome typically visible over a three- to six-month window as new collagen forms. Results are not permanent, and a maintenance plan will be recommended to sustain them.
Who is not a good candidate for XERF™?
Patients with certain medical conditions, implanted electronic devices, active skin infections, or who are pregnant may not be appropriate candidates. This is one of the core reasons we begin with a full consultation before recommending any treatment.
