Left · 2Barry Keoghan appears in a social media video posted by UK celebrity facial expert and Dermaspa founder Nilam Holmes, giving a behind-the-scenes look at his Xerf skin-tightening treatment. 1 2 Left · 2According to Dermaspa's website, Xerf uses radio-frequency technology rather than injections to tighten skin and renew collagen, and costs about $3,500 (£2,600) for face and neck combined. 1 2 Left · 2In the video Keoghan says he had been hearing a lot about the treatment, that visits are relaxing and therapeutic, and: "I feel better about myself, I look better. I think it's important to look after yourself inside and outside." 1 2

Left · 2Holmes wrote in the caption that she has worked with Keoghan for a while on movies, campaigns and projects, that his skin has improved over the last few years, and that this was his second Xerf treatment; she said she was running late filming Xerf content, so he offered to let her film him having it. 1 2 Left · 1Holmes's other Xerf clients include Chris Appleton, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Joe Alwyn and Nicole Scherzinger, according to Variety's reading of her social media pages. 1 Left · 2Holmes described in a March 2025 post regular sessions with Keoghan to fix problematic skin and calm inflammation, and called him "like a little student for me". 1 2

Left · 2Both outlets link the video to Keoghan's March remarks on SiriusXM, where he said there is "a lot of abuse of how I look" online, that it made him shy away and not want to go outside, and that it was "becoming a problem". 1 2 Left · 2The Independent adds that Keoghan said the abuse had started "leaking" into his art, while he also called his fan base "incredible"; Variety adds that he stays off social media but sometimes checks how he is received after events, usually finding the reaction "not nice". 2 1
