What is Endolift?
Endolift® is an innovative, minimally-invasive alternative to a surgical face lift, which uses laser energy to tighten the skin and contour facial fat, with minimal downtime. Created by Eufoton, the technology has been used in Italy for more than a decade and allows Dr Sabrina to target smaller areas, such as festoons, eye bags and the lower-face and neck, giving visible results without the cost, downtime or associated risks of surgery. Safe and effective, the procedure is suitable for all skin types and colours, and is performed under local anaesthesia.
How Does the Procedure Work?
Endolift® treatment utilises a 1470nm laser and works through single-use micro-optical fibres, as thin as hair, which are easily inserted under the skin into the superficial hypodermis. The laser energy selectively targets water and fat, effectively melting the fat while simultaneously stimulating collagen production. This causes immediate skin retraction and also reduces skin laxity.
One treatment is usually recommended: this takes 1 to 2 hours and is performed under local anaesthesia. The results of Endolift® take 3 to 6 months to be fully appreciated; however, this is patient-dependent and some may see visible results sooner. Following Endolift® treatment, you will be given aftercare instructions and a date will be set for your initial review between 4 to 6 weeks. We recommend that you either have someone collect you from the clinic or that you take a taxi home.
