Through the aging process we’re all destined to have loose skin around the face and neck—an unsettling double chin, jawline “jowls,” and sagging skin. It’s not surprising, then, that a face lift, or a mini-facelift as we refer to it, is among the top three most desired facial plastic surgery procedures.
Now there’s a less invasive face lift that can correct the most substantial signs of aging, helping men and women look rejuvenated, younger, and even healthier often boosting confidence in the process. The modern mini facelift uses a less aggressive technique than a more invasive traditional face lift.
This specialized surgical procedure avoids facial nerves while tightening skin-supporting muscles, often resulting in less swelling and shorter healing time. The mini lift creates a natural-looking appearance that can last for years, an outcome for which Dr. Smith and Smith Cosmetic Surgery have become known. However, even a mini facelift must be customized for each individual. Dr. Smith and Dr. Bovenzi’s goal in recommending facial rejuvenation is to focus on specific areas of the face that need correction. A mini cheek and neck lift, or mini facelift, which elevates the neck and the lower half of the face, is a powerful tool to achieve a long-lasting, rejuvenated look.
Ever wondered how a face lift could improve your looks—and even your self-confidence? Come and see us today for an initial complimentary consultation directly with a surgeon.
While there are many things to consider in your decision to have a facelift, we certainly understand that cost is at the forefront of everyone’s mind on the journey to realizing a more youthful and refreshed version of themselves. So, how much does a facelift cost?
In truth, the price can vary considerably between geographical areas, surgeons, and your individual facial features and surgical needs. In general, the cost of a facelift can range between $10,000 and $40,000 depending on age and procedures needed, but you may find some outliers on either end of the spectrum. Some surgeons charge in the hundreds of thousands for their facelift services. To find out exactly what is recommended and what your surgery will cost, we offer a complimentary initial consultation directly with our surgeons, Dr. Bovenzi and Dr Smith. Taking into consideration that every person’s facial anatomy and genetics are unique and highly individual, our surgeons will thoroughly analyze your face and aging concerns and will work with those concerns and your budget.
As an elective procedure, the cost of a facelift isn’t covered by insurance and is required to be paid in full prior to surgery. Having said that, there are a variety of options others have utilized over the years that you can consider for financing the newly, rejuvenated you.
Take advantage of the many 0% credit card options available
This is the most common way patients pay for their facelift surgery. Maybe you have an established relationship with your current credit card company and simply need to inquire as to their 0% credit card terms. If a relationship isn’t already in place, simply search online for 0% credit card options and prepare to be amazed at all that are available. In many instances you will even earn points or miles for your purchase depending on the credit card you choose.
Care Credit
Many patients choose to use Care Credit to help them achieve their facelift goals. Care Credit is a healthcare credit card that will allow you to make a set monthly payment and have your balance taken care of in a specific amount of time depending on the term you choose and your monthly budget. Care Credit even offers a 0% payment option (6 months 0% maximum allowed with Smith Cosmetic Surgery).
Personal loan through a bank or credit union
The relationship you’ve developed with your bank or credit union could be the answer to realizing your facelift goals sooner than later. Many banks and credit unions offer personal loans or signature loans at competitive rates and without collateral.
All of the above
Smith Cosmetic Surgery patients often use a couple or several avenues for financing their dream of a rejuvenated, more youthful version of themselves.
