Costs
will depend on several factors: the geographic location, the skill and
experience of the surgeon, and operating room and anesthesia fees. Approximate costs can be found on the Real
Self website, Surgery.org, or PlasticSurgery.org

Thank you for inquiry.  The first consideration is defining what a "minilift" actually is.  Typically you can ask 10 PSs and you will receive 10 different answers at to exactly what they feel is a "minilift".  As a general statement (and what appears appropriate for you) a mini lift's goal is to tighten both the muscle and skin of the lower face (particularly the jawline).  Depending on the technique (and surgeon) the minilift can also improve the upper neck and under chin area.  That said, the average cost of a minilift varies by region.  California tends to get top dollar for services, so you can expect to spend anywhere between $6-10K.  Other regions (even here in Las Vegas) have lower prices simply due to the cost of doing business (ie CA very expensive).  More important than price should be WHO you choose to perform your procedure.  Just because it is called a minilift does not mean you can't have major problems if it is not performed well.  Be sure to research your PS and be sure he/she is board certified and performs many (not just an occasional) facial procedures.  Best of luck to you!

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan. It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.

The cost of a Mini Lift is between $6000 to $9000. Procedure fees vary upon many factors that should be explained thoroughly at the time of your consultation with a skillful Plastic Surgeon. Mini Lift can be performed in-office while others can be done in an operating room affecting the overall cost. Best,

Prices vary according to how the doctors perform the procedure.  These can be performed under local in the office which avoids the expense of anesthesia and OR.  You should expect something in the $5k range. 

These are great questions you are asking. The
cost of a mini facelift is dependent on a few factors in my practice. They
are:

1) Facility Fee
2) Anesthesia Fee
3) Surgeon’s Fee

I will talk about each of them.

The facility fee is cost paid to the location
where is surgery is performed. This covers all of the supplies, instruments,
and staff that will take care of you. This can be an outpatient surgery center
or hospital.

The anesthesia fee is the monies paid to cover
the cost of the medical person suppling the anesthesia and supplies.

The surgeon's fee is paid to your mini neck lift
surgeon. It covers all of your office visits before and after surgery and the
surgery. This fee will change based on the amount of work and difficultly of
the minilift. Revision surgery generally will be more expensive.

Generally speaking a mini facelift can vary
from 7,500 to 9,500 dollars.

Thank you for your question. Cost is always an important factor that patients must consider in any type of cosmetic procedure. It definitely depends upon exactly what your surgeon includes as part of a "mini facelift." We all do things just a bit differently, and we each have our biases. These differences can influence the cost. Our offices charge $4500 for the basic procedure, but often we recommend other treatments to enhance the results. Best wishes.

The price for a mini-facelift depends on some factors:1. Surgeon's fee2. Anesthesia fee3. Facility feeYou also have to take into consideration where in the US the surgery is performed. A surgery in NY city and Beverly Hills, CA cost more than one done in Iowa City or Cincinnati (no offense). The real estate and office cost of a surgeon will influence how much a surgery will cost. Not always the most expensive place is the best place. Do your research and look for a board certified Facial/Plastic Surgeon.Hope this helps,Dr. Gus DiazDouble Board Certified in Facial Plastic Surgery

  Hi, based upon the attached photos and while a non-smiling photo is much better for evaluation of the face, there is evidence of "jowls", nasolabial folds and flat cheeks anteriorly.  Flat cheeks can amke the face appear elongated.  Cheek Augmentation, with a dermal filler (I prefer Perlane) at the time of the facelift, can shape the cheeks which will feminize the entire face.  If you have "jowls" this is sagging facial tissues and an indication for some form of a facelift.  The underlying SMAS layer, of the face, must be dissected, lifted, trimmed and re-sutured (not merely folded or suspended with threads or sutures that will not last). The excess skin is then removed and the facelift incisions closed.

My most popular facelift is the minimally invasive, short incision facelift that has all the benefits of more invasive facelifts (traditional, mid-face and subperiosteal facelifts) but with these added benefits:

•very small incisions
•minimal tissue dissection = less bruising and swelling = rapid recovery
•can be performed in 90 minutes or less, with or without general anesthesia
•no incisions within the hair = no hair loss
•excess fat can be removed
•excess skin removed
•cheeks, chin and jaw line can be augmented with dermal fillers (I prefer Perlane) or facial implants
•most patients fly back home to parts all over the world in as little as 3 days post-op
Hope this helps.
