Average Facelift Surgery Cost in South Africa by Procedure Type

A facelift is one of the most effective ways to restore youthful contours, tighten sagging skin, and refresh your overall appearance. For many patients, the first question is always about cost.

With Dr Deon, facelift procedures in South Africa start from R145,000, depending on your unique treatment plan, surgical complexity, and the techniques required to achieve natural, long-lasting results.

Choosing an experienced, highly skilled plastic surgeon matters more than choosing the lowest price. Your face deserves precision, safety, and artistry — and that’s exactly what Dr Deon delivers.

Dr Deon carefully designs each surgery around your facial anatomy, skin quality, and aesthetic goals to ensure balanced, natural results rather than an over-tightened look.

Pricing typically starts from R145,000, with variations based on the scope of correction required.
