XERF
XERF is a multi-frequency monopolar RF system from Cynosure Lutronic; ask what the two frequencies are doing in your plan.
How it works
XERF is a radiofrequency platform from Cynosure Lutronic that combines 2 MHz and 6.78 MHz monopolar energy. Different frequencies are intended to affect tissue at different depths, allowing the operator to tailor heating. The goal is gradual tightening and improvement in skin quality. Response varies from person to person.
Good to know
- Ask how each frequency is used and in which areas.
- Clarify whether treatment is delivered in a single pass or several, and how many shots that involves.
- Confirm the handpiece and tip type on your estimate.
- Redness, swelling, and tenderness are possible; burns and temporary numbness are less common.
Checking a XERF treatment before you book
A dual-frequency device invites a good question: why this combination for me? A thoughtful answer refers to your skin thickness, concerns, and tolerance rather than to the machine's features alone.
Ask also what the doctor would change if you felt too much heat. Operators who adjust settings responsively tend to explain their reasoning clearly.
XERF: common questions
Do two frequencies make it stronger?
Not necessarily. They allow different depths to be targeted; intensity is set separately.
How does it differ from single-frequency RF?
Mainly in flexibility. Whether that matters depends on your concern.
Should I avoid sun before treatment?
Avoiding strong sun and tanning beforehand is commonly advised. Follow the clinic's written instructions.
