Nasolabial Fold Lift Cost

The repeated action of smiling can contribute to deep nasolabial folds over time. And while these creases or “laugh lines” are a product of happiness, they can lend a tired appearance, adding years to your face. Fortunately, there are various procedures that soften these folds for a more refreshed and youthful appearance.

Whether you’re considering a temporary fix or prefer long-lasting results, you’re probably wondering about cost. The cost of a nasolabial fold lift ranges from $2,000 to $10,000, overall the cost depends on a number of factors, including your geographical location, your surgeon’s level of expertise, and the type of procedure elected. As an example, surgical nasolabial fold excision is more expensive than treatment with dermal fillers, but surgery produces more dramatic and lasting results.

How much does a nasolabial fold lift cost?

Financial considerations are a big component for many patients considering cosmetic enhancements. But cost alone should never inform your choice of plastic surgeon. A board-certified surgeon with excellent credentials, who has years of experience honing their craft will invariably charge more for their expertise in the field.

Your initial consultation is a prime opportunity to ask questions, vet your surgeon’s proficiency and bedside manner.

  • How many nasolabial fold surgeries have you performed?
  • Where will the procedure take place?
  • Is anesthesia used? If so, what type?
  • What are the potential risks and complications?
  • Are surgery center and post-op visit fees included in the cost?
  • Can I see before and after photos of other patients?
  • How much is a nasolabial fold lift?
  • Will insurance cover nasolabial fold surgery?
