When your skin gets enough oxygen, it functions better - increasing cell turnover and producing more collagen to look smoother and younger. Treat your face and body to the iconic Joanna Vargas glow with our oxygen-infused treatments.
Oxygen Purifying Facial: Uses professional-grade oxygen to plump and hydrate the skin. It also gently erases dull skin and fine lines leaving skin silky smooth with a renewed radiance. This treatment is perfect for anyone currently experiencing congestion, acne, and overall dullness. Plus the oxygen feels so good!
Oxygen Purifying Back Facial: Show off your back with a glow as flawless as your face with the Joanna Vargas Oxygen Purifying Back Facial. Just like our famous facial, but for your back. Clear blackheads, breakouts, large pores, splotchy and rough skin. The results include smooth, soft, and clarified skin.
The Joanna Vargas difference includes a custom 98% pure oxygen serum to bring out your best skin. These treatments are perfect for anyone seeing pigmentation, acne, scarring, and visible redness on their face or back. Oxygen Purifying treatments will smooth out your skin to an even, consistent glowing tone.
And only in NYC, you can book a session in our Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber: Each relaxing session will embed you in 98% pure oxygen from head to toe. It's an extra 60 minutes to yourself before heading back into the world - the action of an Oxygen Chamber is to heal from within. Just breathe in and let the oxygen do the work.
“Oxygen has proven benefits for the skin. If you get burned and go to a hospital, you are put in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber. If you have a brain injury or if your body is in any type of distress, oxygen is administered. The reason for this is that oxygen stimulates the body’s natural healing function. It’s anti-inflammatory and provides a fresh and revitalized appearance. It’s also antibacterial.” - Joanna Vargas

Can You Combine XERF with Botox, Filler, or Lasers?
Yes, XERF may be incorporated into a treatment plan with Botox or other neuromodulators, dermal fillers, biostimulatory injectables, lasers and selected ultrasound procedures. XERF uses noninvasive radiofrequency energy to heat tissue and support skin tightening, while neuromodulators address expression lines, fillers restore volume, and lasers may target pigmentation or texture. However, these treatments are not automatically safe to perform together or on the same day. Radiofrequency heating may affect certain existing fillers, and sequencing depends on the product, treatment area, settings and medical history. At Joanna Vargas in New York City, medically guided consultations help determine whether XERF belongs in a personalized approach to skin rejuvenation.

XERF vs. Thermage vs. Ultherapy: How They Compare
XERF and Thermage use monopolar radiofrequency energy to heat tissue and support collagen remodeling, while Ultherapy uses microfocused ultrasound with visualization to target selected tissue depths. XERF uses dual-frequency RF technology (6.78 MHz and 2 MHz), while Thermage FLX uses a single RF frequency of approximately 6.78 MHz. Ultherapy can target specific depths, including 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5 mm, depending on the treatment area and protocol. All three are non-surgical options for selected skin-laxity concerns, but they differ in energy delivery, comfort, clinical evidence and treatment planning. No device is universally best; the right choice depends on your anatomy, skin laxity, goals and medical evaluation.

Why the DEJ Holds the Secret to Younger Skin
The dermal-epidermal junction (DEJ) is the structural foundation where the epidermis meets the dermis, and its deterioration drives visible aging. Clinical biopsy data from a 63-year-old male patient treated with E-50 Skin Booster after microneedling showed a 17% increase in rete ridge density, 52% increase in epidermal thickness, and 61% increase in basal keratinocyte density, demonstrating that targeted exosome delivery can restore the DEJ architecture that gives skin its density and firmness.
