Laser Face Lift
Overview
A “laser face lift” is a non-surgical combination of resurfacing and deep-heating treatments used to address early facial ageing. It is not a face lift: it improves skin quality and produces mild tightening, but it cannot reposition descended tissue. It suits people with early changes who want improvement without surgery, and it is the wrong treatment for established sagging.
Benefits of this treatment
Improves skin quality and mild tightening
Combines resurfacing and deep-heating technology to address early signs of facial ageing.

-
2
20–30 minutes
Resurfacing pass
A laser pass addresses surface texture and pigment.
-
3
30–45 minutes
Deep-heating pass
Energy-based heating targets deeper skin layers to stimulate collagen and produce mild tightening.
Recovery and aftercare
-
Days 1–3
Redness and mild swelling
Similar to a moderate sunburn.
-
Days 4–7
Settling
Redness fades and any light flaking resolves.
-
Weeks 6–8
Full result
Collagen response continues to build, with the fullest visible result at this stage.
Risks and side effects
Modest, not surgical-equivalent results
The single most important expectation to set clearly before treatment.
Temporary redness or pigment change
Common and expected, resolving within the first week or two.
Rarer complications
- Burns — Rare with correctly calibrated, medical-grade devices, but a risk of incorrectly matched settings.
What it costs
What affects the price
Number of sessions
A course of 2–3 sessions is typical, usually priced as a package.
Frequently asked questions
No — it is a non-surgical option for early facial ageing only. It cannot reposition descended tissue the way a surgical face lift can, and using it for established sagging will underdeliver.
Typically 12–18 months, similar to other non-surgical tightening treatments.
