Lower facelift

This is a tricky situation, this surgery can be very effective but you must be a good candidate for it. The decision shouldn't be made by pricing alone but cost is always an issue. You'll find that there are companies that 'fast-track' people in and out of their office for low cost lower facelifts. Most times, those offices aren't board certified plastic surgeons. The surgeries typically look good for the first few months to two years but then the results sag and stretch, the scars widen... more

Depends on setting

Facelifts do vary by experience, degree of lift and the cost of a home in your area. In SC as a boarded surgeon, my office based lifts with limited anesthesia begin at $5400 and at a surgery center with MD anesthesia at over $8300.

Prices vary widely

Depending on the area you live and on the reputation of the surgeon you go to, the prices for a cheek and neck lift will vary widely. For high quality surgery you could spend between $8,000 and $25,000. Don't base your final decision on whom to go to on price alone. You don't need to go to the very highest priced surgeon to get great results but you certainly won't get the best surgery from the lowest priced doctors.

Lower facelift pricing

The thing about facelift procedures is that they are individualized to patient need so the prices can vary, unlike breast augmentation, for example, which has a consistent price. In my practice in New York, a lower facelift would start at $7000 including anesthesia and facility fees. I would caution patients against fly-in/fly-out doctors at corporate practices with heavy marketing exposure. Many of these physicians are not board certified, not plastic surgeons and are... more

How much does a lower facelift cost?

Surgical treatment of facial aging changes must therefore be carefully individualized to match each patient's aesthetic needs and desires. No two 'facelifts', by necessity, are the same. In helping a patient to make decisions about plastic surgery for facial rejuvenation, I always examine and assess how each aesthetic area or 'unit' of the face contributes to an individual's overall appearance: the brows and eyelids, the cheeks or 'midface', the lower face and... more

Lower Facelift Fees

The fees for a lower Facelift will vary based on a number of factors including geographical location, skill of the surgeon, the amount of time needed to perform the procedure, just to name a few. I would expect the fees for a standard lower Facelift to range between $7000 and $9000 in the Midwest.  Contact some reputable surgeons in your geographical area ( I recommend a surgeon Board Certified by the AAFPRS).

Cost of a lower facelift

A lower facelift is a powerful and effective procedure to recontour the lower face, the jaw, and neck. During this procedure, the deep tissue of the neck is identified, the excess fat is treated, and this tissue is resuspended to be stronger tissue around the ear and skull. When choosing a lower facelift, it is important to consider the experience of the surgeon and to only work with a board-certified plastic surgeon who has great deal of experience and facelift procedures, fat grafting... more

Facelift cost depends on your anatomy

The cost of a facelift depends on your specific anatomy. Be careful about bargain hunting when it comes to your face. I have taken care of many people who had bad facelift outcomes when they didn't know their surgeon and went with a given doc just based on price. You have one face and you can't hide a bad result.

Multiple factors affect cost

There is a wide range of costs for a lower face lift. Variables include the degree of laxity of the skin and muscles in your neck, prior surgeries which may either complicate the surgery or make it easier, male or female, the degree of correction desired, the use of a surgery center and anesthesia, the geographic location of the doctor, and whether other procedures such as eyelid surgery or fat transfer or added at the same time. For a lower facelift alone on an "average" 50 year... more

The answer depends on your goals and skin elasticity

A "facelift" is like saying "car". Are we talking about a Pinto or a Rolls? The answer to your needs will be based on the amount of work to be done and the quality of the surgeons skills. Look at before and after photos and meet with the doctor's patients to actually see what he does! Seek out several reputable surgeons in your area and select one with YOUR GOALS in mind, not his.
