Find answers to common questions about FiberLift procedures, results, and what to expect.
Originally designed as technology for contouring the middle and lower face without surgery, it is now recommended for scars, defining the chin line, lower eye bags, tightening the jaw and neck area, as well as the body including the abdomen, thighs, saggy elbows, and knees. FiberLift can also treat stubborn skin and fat accumulations in other areas of the body, which cannot be addressed with either diet or exercise, as well as reduce the appearance of cellulite.
FiberLift offers all the benefits of a surgical facelift but at a significantly lower cost, with no downtime or pain. Results are both immediate and long-term as the treated area will continue to improve for several months following the procedure as additional collagen builds in the deeper layers of the skin. One treatment is sufficient to benefit from results that will last years.
It depends on how many parts of the face or body are to be treated. A full face 3-area treatment takes approximately 60 minutes including time for the anaesthetic to activate. No recovery time is required, so it is possible to return to normal activities within a few hours.
FiberLift uses hair-thin laser optical fibres, which can be inserted with only a small puncture. There is no need for general anaesthetic or sutures, although most patients request a local anaesthetic to minimise discomfort. The treated areas may appear red and swell slightly shortly after the treatment, but this does not usually last more than a few hours. Patients can leave the clinic shortly after with little discomfort.
In a super majority of cases, just one. In case of incomplete results, it can be repeated for a second time within the first 2 months.
Results are both immediate and long-term. Immediate results are seen as a result of the emulsification of fat cells reducing skin laxity, while the treated areas will continue to improve for several months following the procedure as additional collagen builds in the deeper layers of the skin. The ‘best’ results will come around the 6-month mark.
The results of the FiberLift treatment are expected to last between 2-3 years. Some doctors report results after 8 years, but current state of health and gender are some of the factors that can impact the outcome.
FiberLift procedures should only be carried out by trained professionals. All our specialists have undergone rigorous training and certification to ensure the highest standards of care and safety.
There is no specific aftercare required for FiberLift. One of its greatest advantages is a quick recovery rate. Since it is a minimally invasive procedure, no bandages are required, and you can usually return to your normal daily activities the same day. Any discomfort experienced directly following the procedure will typically disappear within 48 hours and is controllable using over-the-counter pain medication.
Full face starts from £1,800 for 1 area. Prices for body treatments vary based on the number of body parts and time required. Please see our pricing page or contact us for a personalized quote.

In comparison, a surgical facelift requires general anaesthesia, 6-8 weeks recovery, risk of tenderness, bruising, swelling and complications, must be done in hospital, and costs from £7,000 to £25,000.
