Our Oxygen Purifying Facial and Oxygen Purifying Back Facials were crafted by Joanna Vargas to quickly and safely reduce the appearance of acne on the face and back. In addition to improving the overall appearance and hydration of the skin, oxygen facials have been proven to be effective in treating acne on both the face and back.
The benefits of oxygen facials for acne-prone skin are twofold. First, the oxygen infusion helps to kill bacteria that can cause acne. Oxygen is a natural anti-bacterial agent, and by adding extra oxygen to the skin, breakouts and inflammation are reduced. Second, oxygen facials also help to stimulate collagen production, which helps to heal and regenerate the skin. This can help to minimize scarring and reduce the appearance of redness associated with acne.
Another benefit of oxygen treatments is that they are gentle and non-invasive - meaning they are safe for all skin types, including sensitive skin. They also require no downtime, so you can get back to your normal activities immediately after the service.
Each Joanna Vargas oxygen treatment includes expert extractions, and redness-reducing treatments to get your skin smooth and fresh quickly Plus, you’ll get an iconic JV Oxygen glow treatment to keep your skin toned even and glowing for days after your service.

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.
