Love our Forever Facial and the benefits of Radio Frequency for your face? Now you can give your body the same love with The Burn Body Treatment. Using exclusive state-of-the-art equipment, skin is heated and tightened, triggering collagen production and melting away fat and cellulite leaving skin soft, supple, and smooth.
The low frequency of Radio Frequency can safely penetrate to a deeper level of skin, helping to improve skin tone and structure, even lifting tissues. This is how we get the non-surgical lifting effect for the chosen part of your body! Moreover, Radio Frequency can safely treat more patients with different skin tones without risking permanent discoloration.
The Burn Body Treatment is perfect for addressing the following body concerns:
- Rough skin tone
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Uneven fat pockets
- Loose skin areas
Side effects, if any, are typically minimal and short-lived, limited to mild and temporary swelling, redness, and tingling, depending on the treatment. Radio Frequency treatments can also be performed safely in tandem with other minimally-invasive treatments.
A series of six is recommended for best results, a few weeks apart to optimize collagen development and elastin growth between treatments. Start your treatments this month to be done in time for warmer weather!

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.
