Hi there! Face lift cost ranges from £4,000-£8,000, and neck lift from 3,500-£4,000. The procedure takes from 3 to 5 hours and the results may last up to 10 years. The most important thing before having a lift is choosing a qualified surgeon. Before the surgery starts, you will get a general anesthetic. During the facelift, incisions are made along the hairline, beginning with the temple and going round, behind each ear. The surgeon pulls the facial skin up and back. Sometimes underlying tissue is repositioned, and fat removed from under the chin with liposuction. Facelifts are sometimes performed using an endoscope, which does not leave scars.
For a neck lift, incisions are made behind or under the ear and skin is lifted into place. Fat and muscle may also be removed from the neck. The first couple of days following surgery are the worse. There may be pain and swelling, bruising, and numbness. After 10 to 14 days, a person can go back to their routines.
