Facelift in Greenbrae, CA
Tucked between San Rafael and Larkspur, Greenbrae is a quiet, close-knit community where residents value privacy, comfort, and quality care. It is exactly the kind of environment where patients feel at ease making an important decision like facial rejuvenation.
At NorCal Plastic Surgery, we help Greenbrae patients achieve a refreshed, natural appearance through expertly performed facelift procedures. Here is what you should know before scheduling your consultation.
What Is a Facelift?
A facelift, or rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure that addresses visible aging in the lower face and neck. Our surgeons tighten the underlying facial muscles, remove excess skin, and reposition tissue to restore a smoother, more youthful shape.
Greenbrae patients often pursue a facelift to address:
- Loosening skin along the cheeks and jaw
- Deep folds framing the mouth
- A jawline that has lost its earlier definition
- A tired appearance that does not match how they feel day to day

What Are the Benefits of a Facelift?
The benefits of a facelift extend well past smoother skin. Patients often experience:
- A firmer, more contoured jawline
- Reduced jowling
- A refreshed look that still feels authentic
- Results that typically last a decade or longer
For Greenbrae residents who enjoy the quiet pace of life near the Bon Air Bridge and Corte Madera Creek, a facelift offers a subtle, lasting boost in confidence.
What Is Recovery Like After a Facelift?
Recovery timelines differ slightly from patient to patient, though most people can expect:
- One to two weeks away from work and regular activities
- Swelling and bruising early on that steadily improves
- A return to lighter activities within roughly two weeks
- Final results appearing gradually over the following months
Our team provides Greenbrae patients with clear, individualized aftercare instructions.
How Much Does a Facelift Cost?
Facelift procedures at NorCal Plastic Surgery generally range from $26,000 to $49,000. Your specific cost depends on:
- The extent of the surgical work involved
- Any complementary treatments added to the plan
- Your individual facial structure
We provide a detailed, personalized estimate during your consultation.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Facelift?
Strong candidates typically share these traits:
- Good general health
- Visible sagging or folds with some remaining skin elasticity
- Non-smoking status
- Realistic, well-informed expectations
The clearest way to know if you qualify is a one-on-one consultation with our surgical team.
