The GF, age 55, has been after me for a long time to buy her a facelift.  I've sort of agreed, but beed some feedback on what price range this might be in.  I know there are a lot of variables, but would like some input before she foes to the doc.

I saw one of those before and after shows where a woman had a facelift.  She said had she known how bad it was going to hurt, and how long, she'd have never done it.



No idea about prices, sorry.

At 55, it's time to accept the home truth that you are not 25 anymore.  No amount of time, effort, or money will make you look how you did at 25.  It just will not happen.  At 55, it's time to just accept the fact that you're getting old.  Accept the fact and have fun.  I'd eject if somebody doesn't have the self esteem to accept how they look at 55.

Show her pictures of Cher, Michael Jackson, etc.



If she's set on it, she has big esteem issues.

WTF good is a facelift gonna do YOU.... Tell her if shes gonna get something it needs to be some big ol fake titties.... and even then youll only get to play with them for a short period of time, then she decides to move on to someone else...

Definitely a tarp.  She's gonna have to earn it first.    And even after a lot of trying, she still might not earn it.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to look "good".  Wrinkles are ugly, if you have the money, why not?

I don't see wanting to keep your physical appearance up with minimum effort.

Typical ARFCOM responses all.  Not one dollar sign amongst you all.  I should have known better.

For those of you that recommended a boob job instead, she has been suffering from breast cancer, has gone through 18 weeks of chemotherapy and a major surgery to remove the boobs.  She hopes to get implants and maybe fake nipples, but right now she is going thru hell.  The face lift is intended to help her feel more like a woman, shoud she survive all this, and she deserves it.

How Much is Facelift Surgery?





When investigating facelift surgery
and its cost, keep in mind the old saying, "You get what you pay for!"
Facelift surgery requires advanced surgical skill to be performed well.
Surgeons with the most expertise cost more, but for this kind of
complex, highly visible cosmetic surgery, it's advisable to use a very experienced surgeon.







Facelift cost comprises three fees: the anesthesia fee, the facility
fee, and the surgeon's fee. The surgeon's fee is the majority of the
cost, and the most difficult to predict without first knowing the
extent of the procedure and the qualifications of the plastic surgeon.







The average cost of facelift cosmetic surgery ranges from $6,000 to
$15,000. The cost for anesthesia ranges from $1,000 to $1,300. The
facility fee (or hospital fee) ranges from $500 to $2,000. The
remaining cost is the surgeon's fee.







Extent of Procedure Affects Facelift Cost





Cost also varies with the extent of the procedure. If the skin is
dry and stiff from a lifetime of excessive sun exposure, the facelift
procedure is more difficult and time consuming than for more elastic
skin. Each facelift is unique, so it is impossible to simply answer the
question, "How much will the facelift cost?" Cost can be more
accurately predicted after the surgeon has performed an examination and
developed a surgical plan.







Many patients elect to have other procedures performed at the same time as a facelift, such as eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), forehead lift (brow lift), nose surgery (rhinoplasty), chin surgery, facial implants and skin treatments.
Some patients spend more than $25,000 for a facelift, when combined
with additional plastic surgery procedures and other treatments. If all
the procedures are performed at the same time, the fees will be lower
than if they were performed individually: the combined procedures incur
only one facility fee and only one anesthesia fee, and require less
total surgical time.







Facelift Payments



Most surgeons offer payment plans over several years.

Paid $12K for what I guess according to the long, excellant post above, was a "chin lift".  Included all of the fees noted plus one night recovery in a private hospital associated with  the doc.
