Facelift in Santa Rosa, CA

As the largest city in Sonoma County, Santa Rosa combines a thriving downtown with easy access to wine country living. Residents here value both convenience and quality, especially when it comes to choosing where to trust their care.

At NorCal Plastic Surgery, we help Santa Rosa 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, medically known as a rhytidectomy, is a surgical procedure designed to correct 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 contour.

Santa Rosa patients often pursue a facelift to address:

  • Sagging or loose skin along the jawline
  • Deep folds around the nose and mouth
  • Reduced definition along the jaw
  • An appearance that feels older than they do

A facelift can produce results that go well beyond firmer skin. Patients often report:

  • A sharper, more defined jawline
  • Noticeably less jowling
  • A refreshed look that still feels natural
  • Long-lasting outcomes, often a decade or more

Whether you are enjoying the trails at Annadel State Park or a busy schedule around downtown Santa Rosa, a facelift can help your appearance keep pace with your lifestyle.

While healing time varies, most Santa Rosa patients can expect:

  • One to two weeks off from work and social activities
  • Swelling and bruising in the first week that gradually improves
  • A return to lighter activity within about two weeks
  • Full results appearing gradually over the following months

Our team offers Santa Rosa patients clear, individualized aftercare instructions throughout recovery.

Facelift procedures at NorCal Plastic Surgery typically range from $26,000 to $49,000. Your final cost depends on a few key factors:

  • The scope of the surgical correction
  • Whether additional treatments are performed together
  • Your specific facial anatomy

We provide a tailored estimate once we understand your goals during your consultation.

Ideal candidates for a facelift generally have:

  • Good overall health
  • Visible sagging or folds paired with some remaining skin elasticity
  • Non-smoking status
  • Clear, realistic expectations for the outcome

A consultation with our surgical team is the best way to determine if a facelift fits your goals.
