XERF Structural Skin Tightening in Calgary

XERF is an advanced radiofrequency skin tightening treatment designed to lift, firm, and strengthen the skin without surgery. By delivering controlled RF energy deep into the dermal layers, XERF stimulates collagen production and improves skin elasticity over time.

At HOI SKYNS in Calgary, XERF is used to restore firmness to the face, jawline, and neck while improving overall skin structure.

Ideal for those noticing early signs of aging, skin laxity, or loss of collagen.

What XERF Structural Skin Tightening Treats

XERF is designed to improve skin laxity, collagen loss, and early structural aging of the face and neck. By stimulating deep dermal collagen remodeling, the treatment gradually strengthens the skin’s support structure and improves firmness.

XERF is commonly used to improve:
• loose or sagging skin
• jawline softening and early jowls
• loss of facial definition
• skin laxity along the neck
• fine lines and skin thinning
• collagen loss from aging
• skin looseness after weight changes
As collagen rebuilds, the skin becomes firmer, tighter, and more structured over time.
Common Treatment Areas
XERF structural tightening can be used on:
• jawline
• lower face
• cheeks
• neck
• under chin
• smile lines

“Many clients begin noticing improvements in skin firmness within several weeks as collagen remodeling begins.”

Benefits of XERF Structural Skin Tightening

XERF is designed to improve the structural integrity of the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production deep within the dermal layers. Over time, this process strengthens the skin’s support system, improving firmness, elasticity, and facial definition.

Unlike traditional resurfacing treatments that focus only on the surface, XERF targets the underlying architecture of the skin, allowing for gradual lifting and tightening without surgery.

Key Benefits
• Structural skin tightening by strengthening the skin’s deeper support layers
• Collagen stimulation for long-term skin firmness and elasticity
• Non-surgical lifting of the jawline, cheeks, and neck
• Improved skin texture and density over time
• Minimal downtime, allowing clients to return to normal activities quickly
• Progressive results that continue improving as collagen rebuilds
Many clients choose XERF as a non-surgical alternative to more invasive lifting procedures, making it ideal for those looking to maintain facial structure and skin firmness as they age.

How XERF Structural Skin Tightening Works

XERF uses advanced radiofrequency (RF) energy to gently heat the deeper layers of the skin where collagen and structural support fibers are located. This controlled thermal stimulation activates the body’s natural regenerative response, triggering collagen remodeling and strengthening the skin’s internal support structure.

As new collagen forms, the skin gradually becomes firmer, tighter, and more resilient, helping restore facial definition and improve skin elasticity.

Unlike treatments that focus only on the surface of the skin, XERF works within the dermal and connective tissue layers, allowing for structural tightening and long-term collagen rebuilding.

Over the weeks following treatment, the skin continues to strengthen as collagen production increases, resulting in progressive improvement in skin firmness and texture.

What Happens During the Process
Controlled RF energy is delivered into the deeper dermal layers
Heat stimulates collagen and elastin production
The skin’s internal support structure begins remodeling
Over time the skin becomes tighter, firmer, and more lifted
This process supports gradual structural tightening, allowing results to develop naturally while maintaining facial expression and skin integrity.

XERF structural skin tightening can be used to improve firmness and collagen support in several areas of the face and neck. By stimulating collagen production within the deeper layers of the skin, XERF helps restore structure and definition in areas where laxity and softening commonly develop.

XERF Treatment Areas

UPPER FACE

XERF can be used to support collagen and skin elasticity in the upper face. This may help improve

• forehead skin laxity

• hooded eyelids caused by skin softening

• crow’s feet around the eyes

• fine lines in the upper face

By strengthening collagen within the skin, the upper face can appear smoother, more lifted, and more structurally supported.

MID FACE

Collagen loss in the mid-face can contribute to softening of the cheeks and early signs of facial aging. XERF helps improve: • cheek skin firmness • early facial sagging • smile lines and mid-face laxity • loss of facial structure Stimulating collagen in this area helps support the natural contour and density of the face.

LOWer fACE

The lower face is one of the most common areas where structural skin changes occur. XERF is often used to improve: • jawline definition • early jowls • skin laxity around the mouth • loss of lower facial firmness As collagen rebuilds, the skin becomes tighter and more defined, helping restore facial structure.

Neck
The neck is particularly prone to collagen loss and skin laxity.
XERF can help improve:
• loose neck skin
• horizontal neck lines
• skin thinning
• loss of neck firmness
Strengthening collagen in the neck helps improve overall skin texture, firmness, and elasticity.

The XERF Treatment Experience

XERF treatments are designed to be comfortable, efficient, and minimally invasive, allowing clients to improve skin structure and collagen support without significant downtime.

During the treatment, controlled radiofrequency (RF) energy is delivered into the deeper layers of the skin. Clients typically experience a warming sensation as the energy stimulates collagen and structural support within the dermal layers.

Most sessions take 45–60 minutes, depending on the areas being treated.

Maintenance
Many clients choose to maintain their results with a treatment approximately once per year to support ongoing collagen health and skin structure.
What to Expect
Comfortable Treatment
Clients typically describe the treatment as a gradual warming sensation as the RF energy works within the skin.
Minimal Downtime
Most clients return to normal daily activities immediately following treatment.
Progressive Results
As collagen remodeling occurs over the following weeks, skin firmness and structure gradually improve.
Treatment Timeline
Treatment time:
Approximately 45–60 minutes
Recommended sessions:
1–2 treatments depending on skin condition and treatment goals
Treatment spacing:
Typically 4–6 weeks apart if performing a second session
Results development:
Collagen remodeling continues for several weeks following treatment

XERF Results Timeline

XERF improves skin firmness through two phases of tightening: an immediate response from collagen contraction followed by gradual collagen remodeling over the following weeks and months.

Immediate Skin Tightening

Many clients notice an initial improvement in skin firmness immediately after treatment. This occurs as RF energy gently heats collagen fibers, causing them to contract and tighten.

This early response may produce approximately 15–20% of the visible improvement, while the remaining results develop gradually as new collagen forms.

3–6 Weeks
As collagen production increases, the skin begins to feel firmer, stronger, and more resilient. Early improvements in skin elasticity and facial structure may become noticeable.
2–3 Months
This is when most clients begin to see the full structural improvements as collagen remodeling continues. Skin becomes tighter, more supported, and facial definition improves.
Longevity of Results
The longevity of results depends on the treatment protocol.
Single Treatment
One XERF treatment can provide results lasting approximately 12 months, depending on individual collagen response and skin condition.
Stacked Treatment Protocol
When a second treatment is performed approximately 4 weeks after the first, collagen remodeling is further reinforced. This stacked protocol can extend results to up to 18 months for many clients.
