XERF™ Body Skin Tightening in Michigan
Sculpt, firm, and redefine your body—without surgery or downtime.
XERF™ Body Skin Tightening at Brighton Aesthetics is an advanced, non-invasive treatment designed to improve skin laxity and restore firmness across key areas of the body, including the arms, abdomen, flanks, and legs.

What to Expect During Your Treatment
Your XERF body treatment begins with a personalized consultation at our Brighton, Michigan med spa. During the procedure, a specialized handpiece delivers controlled radiofrequency energy deep into the skin while maintaining surface comfort.
You may notice an initial tightening effect, with continued improvement over the following weeks as collagen production increases and your skin becomes firmer and more refined.
Who Is a Good Candidate for XERF Body Treatments?
XERF is ideal for clients who want to:
-
Tighten loose or crepey skin
-
Improve body contour without surgery
-
Enhance skin quality after weight loss

-
Subtle, Natural Refinement
Gradually improves skin laxity and texture for a firmer, more toned appearance—never overdone or artificial
-
No Interruption to Your Routine
Designed to fit seamlessly into your schedule, with no required downtime after treatment.

Tailored Body Contouring Approach

Your XERF™ Experience
-
Consultation — Your experience begins with a personalized consultation at our Brighton, Michigan med spa, where we assess skin laxity, texture, and your body contouring goals. Each treatment plan is customized and includes our Signature Skin Tightening Protocol, designed to optimize collagen stimulation and long-term skin tightening results.
-
Pre-Treatment Preparation — To enhance your XERF™ body skin tightening results, clients begin using Alastin® Regenerating Skin Nectar five days prior to treatment. This clinically proven step helps support the skin’s regenerative response and prepares the tissue for more effective collagen remodeling during your radiofrequency treatment.
-
Treatment — During your XERF™ treatment, a specialized handpiece delivers controlled radiofrequency energy deep into the skin to stimulate collagen production and improve skin firmness. This non-surgical skin tightening treatment is performed as part of a two-session protocol, spaced six weeks apart, to maximize results across areas such as the abdomen, arms, thighs, and flanks. Skin is supported throughout the process with continued use of Regenerating Skin Nectar to enhance both comfort and treatment outcomes. Most clients describe the experience as similar to a warm stone massage—relaxing, comfortable, and highly tolerable.
-
After Treatment — There is little to no downtime following your XERF body treatment. Mild redness or warmth may occur but typically resolves within a few hours. Clients continue Regenerating Skin Nectar for two days post-treatment, then transition to Alastin® Restorative Skin Complex to support healing, strengthen the skin barrier, and enhance collagen production.
-
Results — Many clients notice visible skin tightening shortly after treatment, with continued improvement in firmness, tone, and texture over time. Results from XERF™ body skin tightening can continue to develop for up to six months following your final session, as collagen remodeling progresses. With our guided pre- and post-treatment protocol, results are optimized—delivering gradual, natural-looking improvement and long-lasting skin tightening.
