At Symmetry Clinic, we offer facelift surgery in London for patients seeking refined, subtle and natural-looking rejuvenation of the face and neck. Led by award-winning Consultant Nasal and Facial Plastic Surgeon Mr. Santdeep Paun, our procedures are tailored to restore youthful contours, reduce sagging, and improve facial harmony—without creating an overdone or unnatural appearance.

Our approach focuses on repositioning deep tissue structures rather than simply tightening the skin, resulting in longer-lasting, elegant outcomes that reflect your natural beauty.

What Is a Facelift?

A facelift—also known as a rhytidectomy—is a surgical procedure designed to improve visible signs of facial ageing by lifting and repositioning sagging skin and underlying tissue. Often combined with a neck lift, a facelift can address:

  • Drooping cheeks and jowls
  • Deep lines or folds between the nose and mouth
  • Loose skin and excess fat under the chin and jaw
  • A loss of definition along the jawline

Our face lifting treatments are tailored to each patient’s anatomy. We believe in enhancing, not altering, your appearance to achieve a more refreshed and refined version of you.

Facelift Cost in London

Every face is unique, and so is every facelift. That’s why facelift cost in London at Symmetry Clinic is determined following your in-depth consultation and 3D assessment. We provide a personalised treatment plan and comprehensive quote that includes surgeon and hospital fees, anaesthesia, post-operative care and dressings, and all follow-up appointments

Initial consultations are £275 and include advanced 3D imaging. Payment plans are available through our admitting hospitals to help make your surgery more accessible.

Our Process: From First Visit to Final Result

At Symmetry Clinic, we’re committed to ensuring every step of your experience is comfortable, clear, and tailored to you.

Consultation

You’ll meet with Mr. Paun at our Harley Street or Shard clinic to discuss your goals, medical history, and suitability for surgery in a welcoming and unhurried appointment. You’ll receive a comprehensive facial analysis, state-of-the-art 3D imaging, and a personalised surgical plan based on your anatomy and concerns

This consultation also includes a discussion of realistic outcomes and an opportunity to view facelift before and after facelift surgery images from real patients.

Procedure

Facelift surgery typically takes between 2 to 4 hours and is performed under general anaesthetic at one of our partner hospitals.

We perform a deep plane facelift, which lifts the deeper muscle layers of the face (SMAS) rather than simply tightening the skin. This creates natural, longer-lasting results without a ‘pulled’ or artificial look.

Depending on your needs, your procedure may be combined with a neck lift, blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), or brow lift.

Recovery

After your facelift, you may return home the same day or stay overnight, depending on your procedure. Dressings are usually removed within 24–48 hours. Swelling and bruising gradually improve over 2–3 weeks, with most patients resuming work and social activities during this time. 

Results

Your final results continue to develop over 3–6 months as swelling and bruising goes down. Our dedicated aftercare programme includes regular follow-ups with Mr. Paun to ensure a smooth, safe, and well-supported recovery.
