How Much Does a Facelift Cost in Torrance and Los Angeles?
Our board-certified plastic surgeons, serving patients from Torrance, Long Beach, Manhattan Beach, and beyond, take into account your unique anatomy and needs when determining their surgical approach. The technique they use will ultimately influence the cost as does the extent of the procedure and other factors such as facility and anesthesia fees.
You can see ranges for facelift surgery on our pricing page. However, your final cost can only be calculated after meeting with one of our skilled surgeons.
What Is a Facelift?
A common misconception about face lift is that the procedure affects the whole face. The face lift really should be renamed a neck lift to more appropriately reflect what the procedure does. During a face lift, loose skin from the neck is removed and the underlying muscles are tightened. This restores definition to the neckline, and eliminates jowls from around the mouth in the process. The overall result is a young looking neck and face, with newly tightened skin and muscles.
We specialize in facelift surgery at South Bay Plastic Surgeons using innovative and less invasive techniques. Our board-certified plastic surgeons may employ an endoscope (“endoscopic face lift”) during surgery to minimize scarring, reduce the risk of nerve damage, and accelerate your recovery. Ask your doctor about the advantages of endoscopic cosmetic surgery and if the endoscopic option is right for you. If you’re looking for a nonsurgical alternative, consider the PDO thread lift.

Plan Your TreatmentThe Benefits of Face Lift Surgery
The goal of a face lift is to tighten the skin and muscles of the neck, and eliminate jowls from around the mouth. The skin of a young person’s neck adheres tightly to the underlying muscles, but with age the muscles become lax, and the skin becomes loose, which can lead to the appearance of a “turkey neck.” Face lift surgery restores the appearance of the neck and jowls. A facelift can be combined with a brow lift and/or eyelid surgery to rejuvenate the entire face.
A Reputation Built on Results
Your Facelift Procedure
While the patient is under adequate anesthesia, the surgeon makes incisions behind the hairline near the temple and down around behind the ear and, if necessary, a tiny incision is make under the chin. Excess skin is removed, and sagging muscles and tissue are tightened. The remaining skin is repositioned to create a lifted more youthful appearance. The procedure is performed in two to three hours.
Facelift Recovery and Results
There is usually little pain after facelift surgery, and patients usually look well within a few weeks. There will be some swelling and bruising that will diminish quickly and are usually completely gone within two weeks.
A little numbness and tightness of the skin should be expected. Because of their placement, scars are not visible on the face and may remain pink behind the hairline for a month or so.
Avoiding strenuous activity that may put tension on the scars is important for the first few weeks after your facelift.
