How much does a deep plane facelift cost with Dr. Truesdale?
Quick answer: as of September 2026, a deep plane face and neck lift performed by Dr. Carl Truesdale starts at $65,000. That price includes the surgeon’s fee, anesthesia, and the surgical facility fee. It is the price of the face and neck lift alone; most patients combine it with other procedures, so most surgical plans are higher. Comprehensive plans — The Masterpiece Surgery, which adds procedures such as blepharoplasty, brow lift, fat transfer, or skin resurfacing to the face and neck lift — run $78,000 to $129,000+ and are quoted individually after consultation.
Prices are reviewed periodically and the figure above is the current published starting price. Your written quote, confirmed by your Patient Care Coordinator after consultation, is valid for 60 days.
How this compares in Beverly Hills
Published Beverly Hills prices for a deep plane facelift span a very wide range — from roughly $35,000 at the low end to well over $100,000 for comprehensive plans with well-known surgeons. Two things explain most of the spread: what the quote actually includes (many surgeon’s-fee-only quotes exclude anesthesia and facility costs that add tens of thousands), and what is being called a “facelift” — a limited skin or SMAS lift is a different operation from an extended deep plane face and neck lift.
Dr. Truesdale’s starting price sits in the upper-middle of that range, all-in. What you are paying for is specific: an extended deep plane, composite-flap face and neck lift with a full deep-neck correction, performed personally by a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon who teaches the technique to other surgeons, in a surgical center he owns and controls, with results that typically hold 10–15 years.
Patients considering lower-priced options elsewhere should ask three questions of any quote: does it include anesthesia and facility fees, is the surgeon performing the entire operation personally, and what technique is actually being performed.

Deep Plane Facelift Cost FAQ
As of September 2026, a deep plane face and neck lift performed by Dr. Carl Truesdale starts at $65,000. That figure includes the surgeon’s fee, anesthesia, and the surgical facility fee at his AAAHC-accredited True Surgical Center. Most patients address more than the lower face and neck in the same operation, so the majority of surgical plans are higher; comprehensive plans (The Masterpiece Surgery) run $78,000 to $129,000+ and are quoted individually after consultation.
The surgeon’s fee, anesthesia administered by a board-certified anesthesiologist, and the facility fee for True Surgical Center. Pre-operative planning, an overnight nurse on the day of surgery, and the first year of in-office follow-up visits with Dr. Truesdale and his physician assistant are part of the standard surgical plan. The $750 consultation fee is credited in full toward surgery.
A deep plane facelift releases and repositions the facial retaining ligaments and the SMAS as a composite unit, and Dr. Truesdale’s technique adds a full deep-neck correction through a submental incision. It is a longer, more demanding operation than a skin-only or SMAS-only lift, performed by a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon in his own accredited facility, and results typically hold 10–15 years rather than 5–8.
The main factors are which procedures are combined in the same operation (neck lift alone, face and neck lift, or a comprehensive plan such as The Masterpiece Surgery with blepharoplasty, brow lift, fat transfer, or skin resurfacing), whether it is a revision of a previous facelift, and the complexity of the individual anatomy. Final pricing is confirmed in writing after consultation and quotes are valid for 60 days.
