If you’ve been thinking about a facelift, you’ve probably also been wondering about the cost. At CaloAesthetics® Plastic Surgery Center, we know this is often one of the first things on your mind—and for good reason. You want to know what to expect, what influences the price, and how to make the most of your investment. So, how much is a facelift? The short answer is: It depends!
Because facelift surgery is so highly personalized, the price varies from one patient to the next. While I can’t give an exact number without evaluating your goals and anatomy in person, I can provide price ranges and help you understand what influences the overall cost.
How Much Does a Facelift Cost in Louisville & Lexington, KY?
The cost of a facelift depends on many factors, including the technique used and the complexity of the procedure. At CaloAesthetics®, a mini facelift ranges from $15,000 to $18,000, and a full facelift costs between $17,000 to $24,000.
These estimates include the surgeon’s fee, anesthesia, and facility costs, but your final price will depend on the specific surgical plan we create during your consultation. Pricing reflects the procedure and the high level of customization, safety, and experience we provide.
What Type of Facelift Is Right for Me?
Facelift pricing varies based on the type of facelift and the extent of the surgery. We offer customized facelift options to match your specific needs and aesthetic goals, including:
Mini Facelift
A mini facelift involves smaller incisions and a quicker recovery. While the cost of a mini facelift is typically lower than a full facelift, the results are more subtle and may not address deeper signs of aging. A mini facelift is usually best for younger patients with mild to moderate sagging.
Full Facelift
When more extensive lifting and tightening are needed, a full facelift provides more extensive correction than a mini facelift. This procedure restores a smoother jawline, reduces jowling, and improves skin laxity. While a full facelift requires more recovery time and typically costs more, the results are longer-lasting and more transformative.
Deep Plane Facelift
A deep plane facelift goes beyond the superficial tissues, repositioning the deeper facial structures for more natural-looking and longer-lasting results. This advanced technique is especially effective for improving the midface and redefining the jawline without creating a pulled appearance. While it involves a longer recovery period and a higher price point, many patients choose a deep plane facelift for its comprehensive and elegant rejuvenation—often with results that last well over a decade.
Whether you’re looking for subtle refinement or comprehensive rejuvenation, we’ll recommend the approach that best aligns with your needs, preferences, and desire for long-term results.

Combining Procedures for Comprehensive Results & Savings
It’s common for patients to combine facelift surgery with other facial procedures. In fact, doing so can be a wise financial decision. By undergoing multiple procedures during a single surgical session, you may:
- Pay for anesthesia and facility fees only once
- Reduce total recovery time
- Enjoy more comprehensive and balanced facial rejuvenation
Here are a few of the procedures most commonly combined with a facelift at CaloAesthetics®:
Brow Lift
A brow lift elevates the upper face to create a more youthful, alert expression. This procedure smooths horizontal forehead lines that contribute to a tired or stern appearance, and lifting the brows opens up the eye area and can help your entire face appear more relaxed and refreshed.
Eyelid Surgery
The eyes are often the first area to show aging. Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) can refresh droopy upper eyelids or remove puffiness from the lower lids, helping your face look more awake and vibrant. When paired with a facelift, eyelid surgery enhances the overall harmony of the face.
Combined enhancements can deliver a refreshed, natural-looking result that feels balanced and harmonious.
Neck Procedures
While a facelift improves the jawline and lower face, our neck procedures extend rejuvenation to the collarbone for a smoother, more complete result. Depending on your anatomy and goals, we may recommend a neck lift to tighten the skin and muscle, liposuction of the chin or neck to remove isolated fat deposits, or both. Combining a facelift with a neck lift achieves a smooth, harmonious appearance.
These additional procedures can amplify your results and create a refreshed, harmonious look from forehead to neckline—all while streamlining your surgical and recovery experience.
