What is XERF?
XERF is a non-surgical skin tightening treatment that helps firm and lift loose skin using gentle radiofrequency heat. It does not use needles, cuts, or surgery. Instead, it warms the deeper layers of the skin to help your body make more collagen, which is the protein that keeps skin looking firm, smooth, and supported. XERF may help improve:
- Loose skin on the face and neck
- Early jowls
- A softer jawline
- Mild cheek sagging
- Crepey skin on the chest
- Skin laxity after weight loss
- Early signs of aging
- Preventative skin tightening

I had a fantastic experience at Penitude MedSpa! The space is clean, beautifully designed, and has such a calming aesthetic. Taryn was absolutely wonderful, professional, knowledgeable, and made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. The entire staff was friendly and welcoming, and you can tell the team here really knows their stuff.

Such a great spot. The spa is brand new, modern, and relaxing, and the staff is genuinely kind and helpful. It really feels like a spa oasis right in the Gables. I saw Taryn for Botox and fillers—she’s amazingly talented and the results look super natural. Definitely recommend.
— Sam
I just had the most relaxing and invigorating facial with Anaelle at Plénitude. The spa is beautiful and everyone so welcoming and helpful. The salt room with red light therapy is worth it! I highly recommend this spa to anyone looking to get a treatment done.

- 2 to 3 months: more noticeable firmness
- 12 to 18 months: maintenance may be recommended
