By city

Before you book

The median full facelift price published by practices in Illinois is $19,700. Compare each surgeon's before-and-after photos for faces and necks like yours, check the board certification on the dossier, and at a group practice ask for the surgeon who performs the facelift by name. What a facelift costs and how recovery goes each have their own page.

How the ranking works

Each surgeon here practices in Illinois and holds a place in the national Top 500, ranked on facelift research, teaching at facelift meetings, the facelift work the practice shows on its own site, leadership in the specialty and recognition. A surgeon whose only web page is a hospital or clinic directory is not ranked. The full rules are on the methodology page, and every state is on the US map.
