Facelift

Dr. Adam Tattelbaum performs full facelift, mini facelift, mid-facelift, lower facelift, thread lift, and fat transfer facial rejuvenation at his Rockville, Maryland practice. Facelift pricing starts at $15,000 all-inclusive, covering surgeon, anesthesia, and facility fees. Serving the Washington DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia metro area, the practice is recognised in Washingtonian Magazine's Top Plastic Surgeons and has over thirty years of experience in facial rejuvenation surgery.

Facelift surgery at AT Cosmetics is performed by Dr. Adam G. Tattelbaum, a double board-certified plastic surgeon with fellowship training at Georgetown University and Harvard who has been named to Washingtonian Magazine's Top Plastic Surgeons list across multiple years. The all-inclusive fee from $15,000 covers the full cost of the procedure without hidden additions for anesthesia or facility charges — a meaningful distinction in the Washington DC market where per-component billing can obscure the true cost of surgery. The practice offers multiple facelift approaches to match each patient's degree of facial aging and recovery goals. The full facelift with muscle plication (SMAS tightening) addresses the most comprehensive degree of jowling, soft tissue descent, and platysmal banding. Incisions follow the natural hairline and crease lines around the ear, providing camouflaged access to reposition and secure the SMAS — the fibromuscular layer underlying the facial fat — to a more youthful vector. Excess skin is conservatively trimmed and redraped without tension. The mini facelift targets early to moderate lower facial laxity through a shorter incision limited to the area immediately around the ear, offering a faster recovery appropriate for patients not yet requiring full rhytidectomy. The mid-facelift specifically elevates the descended cheek fat pad and malar soft tissue in a vertical direction, restoring the convex youthful cheekbone highlight without addressing neck skin laxity. Thread lift provides a non-surgical option using barbed sutures to mechanically reposition facial tissues with no incision, minimal downtime, and approximately 12–18 months of longevity — well-suited to patients who want improvement without surgery or as a complement to injectable treatments. Fat transfer to the face, harvested from a donor body site and reinjected into volume-depleted areas such as the temples, cheeks, and perioral region, can be performed as a standalone rejuvenation technique or in combination with facelift. Brow lift and eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) are commonly combined with facelift in the same anesthetic setting for comprehensive upper and mid-facial rejuvenation. The Rockville office serves DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia patients and offers free consultations Monday through Friday.
