Is XERF Laser Painful?

Many patients in San Jose describe the XERF laser treatment as comfortable rather than painful. The sensation of the XERF laser hitting the skin is often described as gentle, warm, and similar to a mild snap. As the laser hits your skin, the XERF device will simultaneously deliver a cooling sensation, evenly heating the skin and preventing burns or overheating. You will not need anesthesia.

How Many Appointments Will I Need?

Each individual requires a different number of appointments. Some patients with mild skin laxity who are receiving XERF laser for preventive purposes may only need one session to achieve their goals. Individuals with moderate signs of aging will likely need 2-4 sessions every few weeks. Dr. Dhar will let you know how many you will need during your consultation.

How Long Until I See the Results?

One of the benefits of the XERF laser is achieving immediate results. You’ll notice firmer, tighter, smoother-looking skin after only one appointment. Your collagen will begin to develop, and you will see gradual results over the next few months, with final results after six months, when your collagen has matured and been remodeled.

Can I Combine XERF Laser with Other Procedures?

Yes, the XERF laser can absolutely be combined with other procedures. Combining the XERF laser with other treatments is a great way to achieve comprehensive skin results. Dr. Dhar will help you decide which procedures to combine with your XERF laser treatment that align with your goals.

What Are the Risks Associated with XERF Laser?

Introduction to XERF Laser

Physical signs of aging can be noticeable on the neck and face, leaving people dissatisfied with their appearance in those areas. One procedure growing in popularity that can treat these signs of aging is XERF (eXtra Enhanced-Radio Frequency) laser treatment. With this treatment, you’ll be able to quickly regain the youthful-looking features you once had through a painless process.

Dr. Anjali Dhar and our team at Luminance Regenerative Beauty & Wellness in San Jose, CA, look forward to helping you feel more confident in your skin’s appearance.

What is XERF Laser?

XERF laser is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that improves skin quality by smoothing wrinkles, tightening the skin, and enhancing jawline and cheek definition, giving patients a more youthful appearance. XERF laser uses advanced dual-frequency (RF) energy to stimulate collagen and elastin production by heating deep layers of the skin.

With the flexibility of XERF lasers’ dual-frequency energy, multiple layers of skin can be targeted as well as different skin tones, resulting in more comprehensive remodeling. XERF laser uses cooling technology while simultaneously heating the deep layers of skin, allowing for a painless, comfortable procedure.

XERF laser treatment is a very quick, comfortable, and painless process. The session will last 30-60 minutes, depending on the severity of the skin laxity or wrinkles and the targeted areas. You will not need numbing cream, as the XERF laser device will cool the skin as it contacts the skin. The sensation of the XERF laser will be warm, but not uncomfortable. After the session is complete, you may notice some flushed or pink skin, but you may resume or begin work, exercise, and normal activities the rest of the day.

XERF Laser Recovery

Recovering from XERF laser treatment is much quicker and easier than with many other procedures, as it is painless and requires fewer steps. You will primarily need to stay hydrated, avoid extreme heat in saunas, tanning beds, and direct sunlight, use gentle skincare products, and avoid intense exercise on the first day. You may go to work and perform regular activities on the same day as long as they don’t irritate your skin. Your skin may be pink or feel warm, but this usually disappears within the first few hours.
