Who is Endolift® for?

Most people who ask MediZen about Endolift describe the same thing. The jawline that used to be sharp has blurred, and a heaviness has gathered around the jowls. The neck, or the area under the chin, looks fuller in photographs than it used to. Skincare cannot reach that, and injectables were never designed to lift it.

Endolift suits mild to moderate skin laxity on the face and neck. The people who do best are usually between their mid-thirties and mid-sixties and in good general health. They still have enough natural elasticity for the collagen response to take hold. Many also have a small pocket of fat under the chin or along the jaw. Endolift can reduce that at the same time as it tightens the skin above.

The areas we treat at MediZen

  • Jawline and jowls. Restores the definition that ageing gradually softens.
  • Under the chin. Reduces a stubborn pocket of fat and tightens the skin over it.
  • Neck. Smooths horizontal lines and firms loose skin under the jaw.
  • Smile lines. Lifts a deep nasolabial fold from within rather than filling it.
  • Cheeks. Lifts and re-contours a midface that has started to flatten.

MediZen treats the face and neck with Endolift, not the body. It is also not the right treatment for everyone, and Dr Mattia Parducci will say so plainly. Where there is severe laxity or a large amount of excess skin, surgery removes tissue in a way no energy device can. He will tell you if that is the honest answer. If your concern is mainly jowls or general skin tightening, those pages set out every option we offer.

What is Endolift®?

Endolift® is a minimally invasive laser treatment that works from beneath the skin rather than across its surface. Once local anaesthetic has settled the area, Dr Mattia guides a single-use optical fibre under the skin through one tiny entry point. The fibre is finer than a human hair, and it sits below the skin but above the muscle. There are no incisions and no stitches.

It delivers laser energy at 1470 nm into the hypodermis, the layer where the collagen-producing fibroblasts live. That wavelength is absorbed by both water-rich tissue and fat, which is what lets one session do three things at once. Existing collagen contracts, so the skin tightens on the day, and the fibroblasts begin a rebuild that lays down fresh collagen and elastin for months afterwards. Where a small fat pocket sits under the chin or along the jowls, the same energy breaks those cells down. The body clears them through the lymphatic system. The energy also stimulates the connective tissue itself, a process called photobiomodulation, which lifts the quality and texture of the skin.

The treatment was developed in Italy by Eufoton, a medical laser maker in Trieste, and has been refined since 1999. It runs on the Eufoton LASEmaR 1500 laser, and the manufacturer reports more than 300,000 Endolift procedures performed worldwide. It is a medical laser procedure. That is why MediZen has a doctor perform it rather than a therapist, and why every treatment starts with a face to face medical assessment.

One session, a lift that keeps building

The appeal of Endolift is how much it does from so little. One session under local anaesthetic, and one entry point small enough to close without a mark. Most people are back to normal life within hours. Mild pinkness or slight swelling usually settles inside twenty-four hours. Strenuous exercise, saunas and steam rooms wait three to five days.

The lift then builds on its own. Tightening shows on the day, from the contraction of the collagen already in your skin. A second wave arrives at four to eight weeks as new collagen production gets going. The result peaks at nine to twelve months, once the remodelling is complete, and typically holds for two to three years. A maintenance session at twelve to eighteen months can build on it further.

It also sits comfortably alongside the rest of your plan. Profhilo improves hydration and elasticity, and polynucleotides support repair in thin or crepey areas. Anti-wrinkle injections soften the movement lines that Endolift does not touch. Dr Mattia sequences any combination so each treatment has room to work.

Comparison

Endolift vs Secret PRO vs fat dissolving: which do you need?

People weighing up a firmer jawline at MediZen usually arrive with three options in mind. Endolift lifts from beneath the skin and can reduce a small fat pocket at the same time. Secret PRO works from the surface with radiofrequency microneedling and refines skin texture as it firms. Injectable fat dissolving clears stubborn fat under the chin but does nothing for loose skin. Here is how they compare.

Your journey

What to expect at your appointment

01
Your consultation
Every Endolift at MediZen begins with a face to face consultation with Dr Mattia Parducci. He assesses the laxity across your lower face, jawline, jowls and neck, and checks for anything that would make the treatment unsuitable. Together you agree which areas to treat. You leave with an honest picture of the result you can expect, the recovery involved and an itemised price. There is no obligation to proceed. If Endolift is not the right answer for your face, he will say so and point you to what is.
02
Before your appointment
Where it is safe, and only on Dr Mattia’s advice, you pause blood-thinning medicines and alcohol for five to seven days beforehand. Never stop a prescribed medicine on your own. Arrive with clean skin and no make-up or skincare on the treatment area, and follow the anaesthetic instructions you were given at consultation.
03
During your treatment
Local anaesthetic numbs the area first and takes about ten to fifteen minutes to work, so you stay awake and comfortable. Dr Mattia then guides the single-use fibre under the skin through one tiny entry point. He moves it in gentle fan-shaped passes along the lifting vectors he mapped for your face. A session runs from thirty to ninety minutes depending on the area, around forty-five to sixty minutes for a jawline. Most people describe mild pressure and warmth rather than pain. The fibre is removed and discarded afterwards, with no stitches and no dressing to manage.
04
Aftercare and results
Expect mild pinkness, warmth and slight swelling, which usually settles inside twenty-four hours. Occasional light bruising is possible in more delicate areas. It covers easily with make-up. Leave strenuous exercise, saunas and steam rooms for three to five days. Some tightening is visible straight away, a second wave of collagen arrives at four to eight weeks, and the result peaks at nine to twelve months. Dr Mattia reviews your progress and advises whether a maintenance session would help.

Endolift® FAQs

Endolift is still a newer treatment in the UK, and people arrive at MediZen with detailed questions before they book. These cover the treatment itself, from how it works to recovery and who it will not suit. Questions about cost, comparisons and booking sit in the section just below.

Endolift® is a minimally invasive laser treatment that firms loose skin on the lower face, jawline and neck from beneath the surface. A single-use optical fibre, finer than a human hair, is placed under the skin through one tiny entry point. There are no incisions and no stitches. The fibre delivers laser energy into the hypodermis, the layer where collagen is made. Only local anaesthetic is needed, and most people have one session lasting thirty to ninety minutes depending on the area.

The energy travels along the fibre and is released directly into the layer where the laxity sits. It never has to pass through the skin from outside. Three things follow. Heat makes the existing collagen contract on the day. The fibroblasts begin producing fresh collagen and elastin over the months that follow. And where a small fat pocket is present, the 1470 nm wavelength breaks down those fat cells, which the body clears through the lymphatic system. The laser also stimulates the connective tissue itself, a process called photobiomodulation, which improves skin quality and texture.

Endolift is performed with the Eufoton LASEmaR 1500, the laser the treatment was developed on. It works at a 1470 nm wavelength, which is absorbed by both water-rich tissue and fat. One session can therefore tighten skin and reduce a small fat pocket at the same time. The device is cleared by the United States Food and Drug Administration. It is built under ISO 13485 medical device certification. Every optical fibre is single use and sterile. Eufoton designs and builds the system in Trieste, Italy, and Endolift UK supports the practitioners who use it here.

No. A surgical facelift cuts, repositions and removes tissue under general anaesthetic, with a recovery measured in weeks. Endolift lifts and firms the skin from underneath through one tiny entry point, under local anaesthetic, and most people are back to normal life within hours. It suits mild to moderate laxity. Where there is severe laxity or a large amount of loose skin, surgery is the better route. Dr Mattia Parducci will tell you so honestly at consultation.

Yes, where a localised pocket is part of the problem. Under the chin or along the jowls, the laser energy breaks down that small deposit while tightening the skin above it. The body then clears the treated cells through the lymphatic system over the following weeks. The jawline looks cleaner for it. Endolift is not a weight loss treatment and does not target large volumes of fat. For stubborn fat with no loose skin, injectable fat dissolving may be the better fit.

The area is numbed with local anaesthetic before anything else happens, so most people feel mild pressure and warmth rather than pain. The anaesthetic injection itself is usually the most noticeable moment of the appointment. Afterwards there is mild tenderness for a day or two, which simple pain relief keeps comfortable.

Endolift is designed to fit around your life. Most people return to normal activities within a few hours. Mild pinkness, warmth and slight swelling can be present straight afterwards and usually settle inside twenty-four hours. We ask you to avoid strenuous exercise and excessive heat, so saunas and steam rooms, for three to five days. Make-up can generally go on from the following day.

The entry point used for the fibre is very small and usually closes without any visible mark. Some people see mild redness or pinkness in the treated area, which fades within hours. Occasional light bruising is possible, particularly where the skin is more delicate, and it covers easily with make-up.

You notice some tightening straight away, because the laser contracts the collagen already in your skin during the session. A second, clearer improvement usually shows at four to eight weeks as new collagen production begins. The result peaks at nine to twelve months, once the remodelling is complete, so the improvement is both immediate and progressive.

Results typically last two to three years. Because the treatment builds your own collagen rather than adding a filler, the improvement develops and then holds for a long stretch. A maintenance session at twelve to eighteen months can build on the result further. Dr Mattia will advise whether that is worth doing for your face.

Most people achieve what they want in a single session. Where there is more pronounced laxity, or several areas are being treated, a second session is sometimes recommended. Dr Mattia sets out a realistic plan for your face at consultation rather than committing you to a course you do not need.

Yes. Areas are often combined in one appointment, the jawline and neck together for example, or the jawline and the area under the chin. The session simply runs longer, up to about ninety minutes for a full face and neck. Dr Mattia will advise on the right combination at your consultation.

Endolift has a strong safety profile when it is planned and performed by a doctor. The manufacturer reports more than 300,000 procedures worldwide, and clinicians have used it for over a decade. At MediZen it is performed personally by Dr Mattia Parducci (GMC 7635663), never a therapist, and every treatment begins with a full medical assessment. Expected effects are pinkness, slight swelling and occasional light bruising. Less common risks include temporary numbness and, rarely, temporary nerve irritation, all of which Dr Mattia discusses with you beforehand. The NHS has a helpful guide to the questions worth asking before any cosmetic procedure.

Yes. Endolift works beneath the skin rather than on its surface. It does not carry the pigmentation risk that some surface lasers pose for deeper skin tones. That makes it a reassuring option if you have been cautious about laser treatment before. Dr Mattia confirms your suitability at consultation.

Endolift is not right for everyone. It is not suitable if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have an active infection or significant skin condition in the treatment area. A history of keloid scarring, certain auto-immune conditions, or blood-thinning medication that cannot safely be paused may also rule it out. It will not replace surgery where there is severe laxity or a large amount of excess skin. A full medical assessment with Dr Mattia settles this before treatment goes ahead.

Choosing well

Endolift costs, comparisons and booking

Wondering what Endolift costs at MediZen, or how it compares with the other lifting options on our menu? Perhaps you want to know how to arrange a consultation in Sutton Coldfield. These are the questions we hear most.

Endolift at MediZen starts at £1,350 for the area under the chin. The neck is from £1,750, the lower face, jawline and jowls from £1,950, the full face from £2,250, and the full face with the neck from £2,750. Every treatment includes your consultation, the procedure and your aftercare advice. Dr Mattia Parducci confirms an itemised price once he has agreed the areas with you, and other facial areas such as smile lines are quoted at consultation. Models treated on our launch day, Wednesday 21 October, receive 50% off in return for being filmed and having their before and after photographs used. Everyone on the waiting list hears about launch pricing first.

MediZen launches Endolift with a model day on Wednesday 21 October 2026. Models receive 50% off their treatment. In return they agree to be filmed on the day and to let MediZen use their before and after photographs. Places are limited and depend on a short suitability assessment with Dr Mattia Parducci, so apply early through the form on this page. If you would rather not be a model, join the waiting list and we will contact you when Endolift is available at full launch.

Dr Mattia Parducci, an aesthetic doctor (GMC 7635663), plans and performs every Endolift at MediZen himself. Endolift is a skill-based medical procedure, so it is never delegated to a therapist. He also leads the advanced laser work at our sister clinic in Oxford, Cannelle Skin Clinic.

We treat the face and neck: the jawline and jowls, the area under the chin, the neck, the smile lines and the cheeks. Endolift can also be used on the body. MediZen does not offer that. If loose skin or stubborn fat on the body is your concern, ask us about CoolSculpting or truSculpt instead.

A thread lift places dissolvable sutures under the skin to pull the tissue into a tighter position. Much of that lift is mechanical, shows straight away, then fades as the threads dissolve, typically over twelve to eighteen months. Endolift contracts the tissue on the day with laser energy, then builds fresh collagen over the following months. You gain visible tightening plus a lasting improvement in skin quality. There are no threads to migrate or become visible, and results typically hold for two to three years.

They share a family of technology but are not the same treatment. Laser liposuction uses larger cannulas, is designed to remove a greater volume of fat, and comes with real downtime. Endolift uses an ultra-fine single-use fibre. It is designed for precision contouring and skin tightening rather than bulk fat removal, and asks for hours of recovery rather than weeks. On the face, that difference matters a great deal.

Secret PRO combines radiofrequency microneedling with a fractional CO2 laser. It heats the deeper layers through tiny needle channels from the surface, and excels at texture, pores, scarring and mild laxity across the whole face. Endolift places its energy directly under the skin, so it reaches deeper and gives a stronger structural lift along the jawline and jowls. It can also reduce a small fat pocket, which Secret PRO does not. Many people choose Endolift for a defined jawline and Secret PRO for overall skin quality.

For mild to moderate laxity of the lower face, jawline, jowls and neck, Endolift gives a genuine lift. There is no surgery, no general anaesthetic and only hours of downtime for most people. It is not a replacement for a facelift where there is severe laxity or a large amount of loose, excess skin. Surgery physically removes that tissue. Dr Mattia assesses this honestly at your consultation and will say plainly if your laxity is beyond what Endolift can achieve.

They solve different problems. Anti-wrinkle injections soften the lines caused by muscle movement, and dermal fillers restore lost volume or reshape a feature. Neither tightens loose skin or lifts a heavy jawline. Endolift targets exactly that. Plenty of people combine the approaches, using injectables for expression lines and volume and Endolift for the underlying laxity.

Yes, and it often is. Endolift creates the structural lift, and other treatments refine the skin around it. Profhilo improves hydration and elasticity, and polynucleotides support repair in thin or crepey skin. Anti-wrinkle injections address the movement lines Endolift does not touch. Dr Mattia sequences any combination at consultation so each treatment has room to work and your recovery stays comfortable.

Most people who benefit are between their mid-thirties and mid-sixties. At that stage there is still enough natural elasticity for the collagen response to produce a meaningful lift. Below that, few people show the degree of laxity Endolift is designed for. Above it, surgery may be the better option for significant laxity. Age matters less than the skin in front of Dr Mattia at consultation.

Endolift launches at MediZen with a model day on Wednesday 21 October. The quickest first step is to apply for the model day or join the waiting list on this page. Booking then starts with a face to face consultation with Dr Mattia Parducci at MediZen in Mere Green, Sutton Coldfield. Free parking is a short walk away.
