There are various techniques used today to perform a Facelift. Facial anatomy, skin laxity and the overall aesthetic goal of the patient will determine the best approach. Each procedure will be unique to the patient and will vary based on the type and location of the incision, the number of tissue layers affected, the plane of elevation and the level of invasiveness.
The skin only Facelift has been in practice since the early 1900's. Known as a cutaneous Facelift, this technique is less invasive because it addresses the skin only. The result of this surgery is a bit more subtle than some of the newer muscle tightening procedures. It also offers a lower risk of complications and typically results in a shorter recovery period for the patient.
This SMAS Facelift is considered the gold standard. This surgery, while more complicated, produces results that are more dramatic and longer lasting. The technique involves manipulating a group of muscles beneath the skin known as the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS). This section of muscle controls facial expression. An incision is made along the hairline from the temple to just behind the earlobe. The skin is then separated and lifted. The underlying muscles and tissue are tightened and secured so they maintain their new position.
The deep plane lift goes a step further than the traditional approach. It is better suited for those with severe sagging and drooping — usually reserved for older patients. In addition to the SMAS layer being adjusted, a deeper section, known as the deep plane, is also treated. While this procedure offers certain advantages over a traditional Facelift, surgeons must be skilled and act with caution so facial nerves are not damaged during the surgical process.
A mini Facelift is geared towards patients who want some of the benefits of a Facelift, while at the same time minimizing the cost and invasive nature of the surgery. Some procedures that are considered “mini” include the “Quicklift” or “Lifestyle Lift”. Patients who wish to maximize the outcome of their surgery, resulting in the most dramatic results, will most likely need to turn to having a full Facelift in order to meet these aesthetic goals.

Each Facelift surgery is unique and will be tailored to each patient. Most patients can expect to pay between $8500 - $11,000 for a less invasive/skin only Facelift, while more invasive procedures, such as the SMAS Facelift and the deep plane Facelift, can run between $11,000-$12,500.
