How much does a fascia lift cost per session?
Generally, the principle of fascia lifting involves surgically or minimally invasively lifting and repositioning the loose fascial layers of the face or body, securing them in a proper position to improve skin laxity and enhance contour definition. The general reference price for fascia lifting ranges from 8,000 to 35,000 yuan per session. Stable results are typically visible within 1 to 3 months, although the exact price can be influenced by various factors, including the extent of the treated area, type of suture material used, preoperative examination items, postoperative care plan, and regional cost-of-living differences. This procedure should be performed at a qualified hospital. Detailed analysis is as follows:
1. Extent of the Treated Area
Procedural difficulty and duration vary depending on the treatment area, which affects the reference price. For a mid-to-lower facelift alone, which is relatively simple to perform, the reference price may range from 8,000 to 18,000 yuan per session. For a full facelift, which involves a larger area and more complex procedures, the reference price may increase to between 18,000 and 35,000 yuan per session.
2. Type of Suture Material
Differences in quality and material of the sutures influence the price. Using standard PDO sutures, the reference price may range from 8,000 to 15,000 yuan per session. If imported PCL sutures or barbed lifting sutures—which offer greater tensile strength and longer-lasting results—are used, the reference price may range from 15,000 to 35,000 yuan per session.
3. Preoperative Examination Items
The number of required preoperative examinations affects the overall price. A basic examination package may range from 8,000 to 12,000 yuan per session, while a comprehensive examination package may range from 12,000 to 35,000 yuan per session.
4. Postoperative Care Plan
The level of post-treatment care provided also affects the price. A basic care plan may range from 8,000 to 16,000 yuan per session, while a premium care plan may range from 16,000 to 35,000 yuan per session.
5. Regional Cost-of-Living Differences
Regional economic levels influence pricing. In second-tier and lower cities, the reference price may range from 8,000 to 20,000 yuan per session. In first-tier cities, where the cost of living and service expenses are higher, the reference price may range from 20,000 to 35,000 yuan per session.
In daily life, after the procedure, patients should avoid exaggerated facial expressions and strenuous exercise, maintain cleanliness of the treated area, avoid trauma or pressure, wear a facial compression headgear as instructed by the physician, maintain a light diet, and avoid spicy or irritating foods to promote recovery.
