What is ENDOLIFT®?
ENDOLIFT is an FDA-approved European laser treatment designed to contour and tighten loose skin and fatty tissue on the chin, neck, body, and face. It uses advanced micro-optical fibers to address skin laxity and fat in both deep and superficial layers. The treatment tightens and retracts connective tissue by stimulating collagen production, while also melting unwanted fat accumulated with age.
How Does ENDOLIFT Work?
ENDOLIFT is recognized for being minimally invasive.
The laser’s thermal energy stimulates the production of collagen, a protein vital for skin elasticity and firmness. This boost in collagen leads to skin tightening over time, with an immediate visible lifting effect.
Collagen production naturally slows with age, making this an excellent alternative to surgical lifts for patients wanting a more youthful appearance.

Are There Risks or Side Effects?
Due to the heat generated by the laser, there is a potential risk of skin burns, discoloration, or nerve bruising, which could lead to temporary muscle weakness around the mouth for 3 to 6 months. However, when performed by a skilled physician like Dr. Moses, these side effects are extremely rare.
Additionally, there’s a possibility of asymmetry and contour irregularities, which might necessitate additional treatment.
What Does ENDOLIFT Treatment Feel Like?
The duration of ENDOLIFT treatment ranges from 30 to 90 minutes, depending on the treated area.
What to Expect After ENDOLIFT in Pasadena
Swelling may occur and could persist for about two to three weeks after the procedure.
How Soon Will I See the Results?
ENDOLIFT immediately tightens the skin, providing an instant improvement in skin laxity. Over the following months, you’ll notice further enhancement in the treated area as collagen production increases in both deep and superficial skin layers.
How Long Do the Results Last?
The skin tightening from ENDOLIFT typically lasts 2-3 years, but your results might endure even longer. Like with all aesthetic procedures, the outcome depends on the individual patient’s circumstances.
How Many Sessions of ENDOLIFT Do I Need?
Most of our patients notice results after just one session. Depending on your skin’s initial condition and where you start, Dr. Moses might suggest further sessions for the best outcome.
