XERF · What to expect · Vaughan & the 905
Your XERF visit, step by step.
From consultation through treatment day and the weeks of collagen rebuild—what happens before, during, and after structural skin tightening at Tri-Health.
Before your visit
Simple preparation.
01
Clean skin
Arrive with skin free of makeup, serums, creams, oils, and lotions on treatment areas.
02
Hydrate
Increase water intake in the days before. Limit alcohol and caffeine as advised.
03
Sun smart
Avoid direct sun and tanning beds before treatment. Tell your provider about medications and recent or planned procedures.
During treatment
Warm, controlled, no needles.
01
Consult & map
We review goals, skin history, and areas to refine. Your provider selects depths and settings for your anatomy.
02
Comfort-focused RF
You may feel warmth or gentle tingling as energy heats tissue. No numbing or anesthesia is typically needed. Most patients find it comfortable.
03
30–60 minutes
Session length depends on areas treated. Dual-frequency energy is used to address shallow, middle, and deeper structural layers.
After treatment
Back to your day.
01
No downtime
Resume normal activities immediately, including exercise and makeup when comfortable.
02
Mild redness possible
Skin may look slightly red or feel warm; this usually settles within an hour or less.
03
Collagen keeps working
Stay hydrated, limit sun exposure for the next few days, and follow provider skincare guidance. Many notice ongoing refinement over subsequent weeks.
Based on manufacturer patient consultation materials. Individual experiences vary. Your Tri-Health provider will personalize instructions.
The plan
Two sessions. Thoughtful timing.
Most founders plans use two sessions about four weeks apart so collagen remodeling can build between visits. Your package and timing are confirmed at consultation.
