How much does facelift cost?

A clear breakdown of what facelift actually costs in 2026 — what's bundled, what isn't, and how regional pricing changes the bill.

What drives the cost of facelift?

Technique

SMAS plication ($8,000–$15,000) is the entry tier. Deep plane and high-SMAS techniques ($18,000–$30,000+) reposition tissues at a deeper level for longer-lasting results — and a steep skill premium.

Mini vs. full

Mini facelift addresses lower face only with shorter incisions and recovery. Full facelift covers cheek, jowl, neck — bigger result, longer recovery.

Neck lift add-on

Most facelifts include some neck work. Standalone platysmaplasty + submentoplasty adds $3,000–$6,000 if not bundled.

Adjuncts

Fat grafting, brow lift, blepharoplasty, laser resurfacing — combos extend OR time but bundle pricing typically saves 10–20%.
