Hello. This is Dr. Park from Relieve.

If you look in the mirror under bright lighting or sunlight, have you ever felt that your skin texture looks extremely rough, or that enlarged pores and unevenness stand out?

(Just thinking about it makes you not want to look in the mirror..)

Today, I’ll explain XERF’s principles, the procedure process, and even the meaning of lifting to help ease these concerns.

XERF Lifting Principle

XERF is a premium lifting device that applies dual monopolar radiofrequency technology.

By simultaneously using two frequencies, 6.78 MHz + 2 MHz, it effectively delivers stable thermal energy to the dermis and the SMAS (fascia) layer. The Wave Fit Pulse technology is also applied, keeping heat within the skin for a set period of time and maximizing the collagen remodeling effect.

XERF, which uses a patented spider-pattern energy delivery method, can supply uniform energy across the entire skin, so it is designed to prevent localized overheating in specific areas.

In addition, thanks to the continuously delivered cooling gas system, pain is significantly less than with conventional lifting devices, which is a major advantage.

What Exactly Is Lifting?

Lifting refers to improving the sagging and loss of elasticity in the skin caused by gravity and aging by delivering energy such as radiofrequency, ultrasound, light energy, and HIFU to the deeper layers of the skin to promote collagen and elastin regeneration.

In other words, it is a non-surgical anti-aging treatment that lifts the internal tissue and restores elasticity without making an incision in the skin.

Features of XERF

  • Strong yet safe thermal stimulation

: It reaches deep layers stably and helps lift sagging skin and sagging pores.

  1. Minimizes pain

: The cooling gas system is repeatedly released between pulses, providing an immediate cooling sensation so the procedure can be performed without numbing cream.

  1. Customized modes

: A total of three modes are available, allowing treatment tailored to the patient’s skin condition, such as fine lines on the skin surface, improvement of skin texture, strengthening elasticity in the mid-dermis, and lifting of the deep fascia layer.

  1. Natural results

: Collagen regenerates for more than three months, and as the skin gradually improves, it promotes a natural change that does not look unnatural or obvious.

  1. Duration of results

: On average, the effects last about 6 months to 1 year, depending on the individual. With retreatment at about 6-month intervals, cumulative anti-aging effects can be expected.

XERF Procedure Process

  • At Relieve, the doctor directly evaluates the facial condition and sets a treatment plan according to the degree of sagging, the presence or absence of volume, and skin thickness.

  • Before the procedure, the skin is prepared by cleansing, and if necessary, numbing cream is applied, but XERF causes little pain, so it can be performed without numbing cream.

  • RF energy is delivered by selecting a mode for the desired area.

  • About 400 to 600 shots is typical for one XERF session, but the number of shots varies depending on the area being treated and the individual’s condition.

  • Since there is no damage to the skin surface, daily life is possible immediately after the procedure. If the skin is sensitive, slight warmth or redness may appear, but in most cases it improves within 1 to 2 days.

  • Immediately after the procedure, you may feel some tightening of the skin, and over the next 1 to 3 months, collagen regeneration becomes active, allowing you to gradually see improvements such as lifting effects, better elasticity, and improved skin texture.

To summarize,

XERF is a radiofrequency lifting device that “reduces pain and increases effectiveness.”

When you are worried about skin sagging, loss of elasticity, pores, bumpy uneven texture on the skin, or dryness, I believe it can be a good option for improving the skin safely and naturally without dangerous incisions.

It is also a lifting device I personally love, and because I regularly perform self-treatment with XERF, it is a lifting treatment I can recommend to acquaintances as well.

(Because I’m sensitive to pain and want to get rid of pain, I can’t help but love XERF—it’s my fate.)

Thank you. This was Dr. Park.
