## Frequently asked questions

### Is deep plane facelift worth the cost?

Yes for the right patient — 95-97% of deep plane facelift patients report satisfaction, and the regret rate stays below 5%. Over the 10-15 year durability window, the amortized cost is $3,000-$5,000 per year. That compares favorably to lifetime filler + Botox maintenance ($4,000-$8,000 per year). The critical variable is surgeon skill, not price.
