Our Oxygen Purifying Facial goes deep with extractions to physically clarify congested skin, followed by a custom mask for your skin’s needs in the moment (think - extra hydration, chemical exfoliation, or anti-redness), plus diamond-tipped exfoliation to help prevent future breakouts, and of course Joanna’s iconic Oxygen Treatment.
Need a detox for your back? We got you - try the Oxygen Purifying Back Facial. You'll get the same anti-inflammatory, redness-reducing benefits we provide for your face, but all over your back.
Pro Tip: Book a session in our Relaxation Pod to get pure oxygen benefits from the inside out. Oxygen is essential for cell metabolism and the regeneration of collagen and elastin. When your skin receives an adequate supply of oxygen, it becomes clearer, brighter, and more youthful. It helps to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, leaving your skin with a beautiful, radiant glow.
If you’re feeling like your skin could use a detox session, book our fan-favorites for the hottest summer months, Oxygen!

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.
