Why is body exfoliation so beneficial during the summer months, you may ask? It helps to slough away dead skin cells and unclog pores, leaving your skin feeling softer, smoother, and more radiant. This is especially important during the summer when sweat, sunscreen, and other debris can accumulate on the skin and cause breakouts and dullness.
Exfoliation also helps to stimulate circulation and promote lymphatic drainage, which can reduce swelling and puffiness in the body. This is especially beneficial during the hot summer months when heat can cause your body to retain water and feel bloated.
Another major benefit of professional body exfoliation is that it can help you achieve a more even, glowing faux tan. By removing dead skin cells and smoothing out rough patches, your skin will be better able to absorb self-tanner, at home or at our spa.
In our Full-Body Microdermabrasion Treatment, we use a diamond-tipped wand to exfoliate from your chin to toes, followed by an ultra-hydrating body moisturizer. Don’t leave it to your home body scrub - this professional way to level up your softness without any skin damage from harsh shower scrubs. Plus, your body moisturizers will apply and absorb so effortlessly for weeks after this treatment.
It’s a must-have before hitting the pool or beach.

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.
