How much is a mini lift price range in North Jersey?

Question

I have gotten quotes from 2500-4800 so far which I think is pretty good however is that the standard price? Also why does one doctor charge $2000 and another in the same area and location charge $8500 seems very odd to me and questionable.

Jeffrey B. Wise, MD, FACS · Answer

Prices range depending on qualifications of surgeon, board-certification, and experience.  Facelift surgery is successful when it is performed by a highly qualified surgeon.  While price shopping is understandable for many things, facial surgery is probably not something to compromise on.   Fixing "bad work" can add up to big costs, not to mention that there are many complications of facelifting  that are not fixable.If the price is too good to be true, that can pose a red flag.Best of luck!

The #price of a #Facelift is always a concern when deciding whether or not to have a cosmetic procedure. Patients’ needs and goals vary, so there is no fixed price for a facelift. These are the contributing factors to the cost of a facelift:-Surgeon’s fee-Facility fee-Medication cost-Anesthesia feeEstimated fees may also be found here on Real Self, and the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery website. It is important to choose a highly skilled and experienced surgeon to match your #facelift goals and skin type with the appropriate surgical techniques.Also, its best to work with a #board #certified plastic surgeon who is highly trained with your desired procedures. I also encourage you to look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients. Also, reading patient reviews of those who have had combined surgeries will be beneficial. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.

Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: 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 the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include:

1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA.

2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used?

3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic 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 it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

Thank you for your question about facelift.

Realself provides data for the average cost of facelift and other procedures in your specific geographic area. There can be a large variation in price for a limited mini lift all the way up to a full face and neck lift.

To be sure, see two or more board-certified plastic surgeons in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have facelift surgery.

I hope this helps.

The first fee sounds really low. The cost without the surgeon's fee ( anesthesia, staff, supplies, facility) probably runs $3-4K alone. Be careful when you start "shopping" for low prices, you might end up paying more in the long run if it doesn't come out to your satisfaction.
