In Aesthetic Medicine there is often comparison made between non invasive laser treatments such as Elevador endoscópico and the more traditional surgical approach of a Facelift. Many would consider both to be for similar reasons i.e. for skin laxity, fine lines and wrinkles and facial re-shaping. However there are many key differences that are of interest between the two methods of treatment. In this guide we will highlight the differences and specifically focus on Endolift and laser lipolysis using the latest 980nm and 1470nm diode laser technology.

¿Qué es Endolift?
Endolift is a non-invasive laser facial treatment known as an endo-laser lift or facial endo laser bodylift. The treatment, developed by Dr. Yannis Koultiras, uses micro-optical fibers inserted into the superficial and subdermal layers of the skin. These extremely thin fibers release a targeted laser energy that selectively produces heat in the skin. This heat causes fat to melt, pulls up the skin and creates new collagen in the skin’s extracellular matrix to produce an immediate and long-lasting lift.
Our treatments are performed using two different wavelengths of light, 980nm and 1470nm, to achieve the best results. The use of two different wavelengths is made possible by using a high specification 980nm 1470nm diode laser machine. The two different wavelengths have their own specific uses, the 980nm wavelength is used for vascular treatments and coagulation of tissue, whilst the 1470nm wavelength is specifically designed to treat fat cells to break down lipids within the cells.
The treatments are usually performed on an outpatient basis and are performed under local anesthesia. A fine cannula or optical fiber is introduced through very small entry points. Using an endolift laser machine, the energy is distributed in a controlled fan-shaped manner. The power is usually set between 14W and 22W, depending on the treated area.
Benefits of Endolift
- Minimal Invasiveness: No large incisions required; only microscopic entry points.
- Quick Recovery: Most patients resume normal activities within days.
- Natural Collagen Stimulation: Promotes long-term skin tightening and improved elasticity.
- Fat Reduction and Contouring: Effective for stubborn fat pockets using a advanced lipolysis laser machine.
- Versatility: Suitable for multiple areas including jawline, neck, arms, thighs, and abdomen.
- Low Downtime: Minimal swelling and bruising compared to surgery.
- Outpatient Procedure: Can be completed in a clinical setting without general anesthesia.
Modern systems like the Arfurla 980nm 1470nm Multifunction Medical 12 in 1 Diode Laser Machine offers more than just the Endolift treatments. These are designed for vascular treatments, physiotherapy and even removing of the spider veins and other. These modern machines give clinics a complete solution of a multifunction diode laser machine.
What is a Traditional Facelift?
A traditional facelift, also known as rhytidectomy, is a surgery that involves making an incision along the hairline and in the ear. The surgery includes lifting, repositioning and firming of the facial tissues, removal of excess skin and also includes tightening of the underlying muscles to address more severe sagging and deeper lines and wrinkles.
Benefits of a Traditional Facelift
- Comprehensive correction of severe sagging and deep folds.
- Long-lasting structural changes, often up to 10 years.
- Dramatic transformation in facial appearance.
- Ability to combine with other surgical procedures.
Comparative Analysis
Invasividad
Endolift is a non-invasive procedure that uses small fibers that are inserted into the skin as opposed to large cuts required in a traditional facelift. The endolift laser is introduced into the skin through small insertions thus reducing significantly the amount of trauma to the patient’s skin in comparison to open surgery.
Downtime and Recovery
Endolift patients may have slight swelling that resolves in days compared to the 2-4 weeks of recovery time for a traditional facelift.
Results and Longevity
Endolift results give a natural look for life by stimulating collagen and results continue to improve over months to years. The 980nm / 1470nm diode laser is also used for immediate face lifting and skin contraction in the long term using our 980nm / 1470nm diode laser machine.
Cost Consideration
Endolift treatments carried out using a professional lipolysis laser device can be more cost effective and better for your clinic compared to a surgical treatment.
How Does the 980nm 1470nm Laser Bodylift Work for Lipolysis Treatment?
The Arfurla diode laser system is one of the leading bodylift laser machines available on the market today. This system uses controlled amounts of energy which are delivered through fibers that run through optical tubes. The fiber is then inserted into infiltration sites of tumescent solution and moved through deep, mid and superficial layers of the skin. By melting fat, coagulating vessels and also tightening the skin, the system achieves results with minimal invasion into surrounding tissues.
Once melted, the fat can either be sucked out or left to be digested naturally by the body. Our 980nm and 1470nm multifunction medical diode laser is a revolutionary tool for precise body contouring with minimal bleeding and quick recovery.
Preparing for Endolift with Advanced Diode Laser Systems

Before treatment using devices such as the Arfurla 12-in-1 diode laser equipment, we take time to properly consult with clients to establish the best plan for their individual needs. Before the procedure clients are given pre-procedure guidelines on how to look after their skin prior to treatment such as encouraging clients with healthy skin to treat, informing them of any medications such as blood thinners that they need to cease prior to treatment and ensuring that they have a proper supply of water to drink prior to and after the treatment.
Understanding the Recovery Process After Endolift
Immediate Post-Procedure Care: There may be a little bit of redness and swelling post treatment but this typically resolves after a week or so as results continue to build over weeks as collagen is produced. Note: Results do depend on the quality of the laser being used for the Endolift treatment.
Initial Recovery Tips:
- Avoid strenuous activity for 24–48 hours.
- Use prescribed pain relief as needed.
- Maintain gentle skincare and sun protection.
