A typical Endolift session lasts 45-75 minutes, depending on the treatment area. Most patients require only one session, with results lasting 2-3 years. Follow-up treatments may be recommended based on individual aging patterns and desired outcomes.

Endolift has been proven safe through clinical studies and practical application. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia and has minimal risk of complications when administered by qualified practitioners.

All treatments at Karwal Aesthetics are performed by Dr. Arun Karwal.

Dr. Arun is the founder of Karwal Aesthetics. He is an ex A&E doctor and is registered with the General Medical Council (GMC).

Additionally, Dr. Arun serves as an elite trainer for Derma Medical, so you can be sure you are in good hands.

We offer Endolift treatments in London. Endolift treatments are only available at our Mayfair Aesthetic Clinic, not at our Kingston Clinic.

The main cosmetic effects of Endolift are skin tightening and optional fat reduction. This combination creates a slimmer, more defined, and lifted facial appearance. Results develop gradually—initial improvements appear within 8–12 weeks, with full results visible at approximately 6 months.

As with all medical treatments, the degree of cosmetic improvement varies between individuals and will be discussed with you in detail.

The treatment is performed under local anaesthesia using a skin injection. This produces an uncomfortable stinging sensation lasting 15–30 seconds but is followed by numbness of the skin. The subsequent Endolift laser treatment is generally well-tolerated, producing none to minimal discomfort. The anaesthetic wears off after 1–2 hours.

On the day of treatment, avoid makeup if possible and remove earrings. Avoid other facial laser treatments for at least 4 weeks prior. Avoid peel-based creams (e.g., retinol) for 1 week prior.

Endolift is a very safe procedure with a low risk profile. A detailed list of possible risks, side effects, and complications is available in your consent form. A rare but important complication is nerve bruising, specifically to the "marginal mandibular nerve" located in the lower face on either side of the lip angles. In a very small number of cases, this nerve can become irritated from laser heat, causing temporary lip asymmetry on the affected side. Some patients may be given a short course of oral steroid and vitamin B tablets to help speed up recovery. This is a temporary complication that usually reverses between 8–10 weeks. To minimise this risk, treatment close to the mouth angles is avoided.
