How Much Does Quick Lift Cost?

Quick Lift, Lite Lift and Other Mini Facelift Cost factors vary but on the West Coast they tend to average between $6000-$10,000.
Quick Lift, Lite Lift, and other mini and other facelift prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find qualified surgeons   that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. Factors that influence the price include:

1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctors office? Geographical location also has a significant influence.

2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist or a nurse anesthetist be used, or an RN?
    
      3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best trained (and longest) would be a surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery
   
      4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and       how long, etc . Will other procedures also be done like a brow lift, lipo of the neck or eye lid (blepharoplasty surgery), etc be also performed?

Cost of Quicklifts, LiteLift™, Lifestyle Lifts, MACS Lift-


Costs run from about $5,000 to $8,000 for an average patient.

Local anaesthesia is less expensive.

Many patient desire to add neck tightening, laser, or skin peel.

Brow and eyelid surgery can increase costs.

The LiteLift™ is done in an exclusive very private setting and may be a bit more expensive for these benefits.

In my experience, the only thing "Quick" about a "Quicklift" is the need for a revision.  In the "Quicklift" revisions I have performed, the extent of undermining performed was similar to that of a conventional SMAS based facelift; in order to place the minimal access cranial suspension suture (MACS), the skin undermining must be relatively aggressive.  In my experience, this large loop suture tends to cheese wire through the SMAS and provide a less durable result than a SMAS elevation (imbrication) procedure.  Therefore, although this is an alternative that may be suitable for some patients, it is by no means a superior procedure, or a minimally invasive procedure.  I would encourage any patient to see a variety of well trained Facial Plastic Surgeons or Plastic Surgeons who perform a lot of Facelifts, and let the individual Surgeon convince you of his/her abilities.  Marketing is just marketing and offers no correlation with surgical success.
