If you’re looking into facial rejuvenation treatments, you may have heard of Trilift. This innovative technology provides a non-surgical “facelift” to help smooth wrinkles and tighten skin. Unlike a traditional facelift requiring surgery, Trilift uses radiofrequency energy to gently contour the face.

But how much does this advanced treatment cost? In this article, we’ll break down Trilift pricing and what factors affect the price. We’ll look at how many sessions you’ll need for full results. And we’ll help you understand what makes Trilift different from other options.

Key Takeaways

• Trilift uses radiofrequency and muscle stimulation to non-surgically “lift” the face
• A series of 5 treatments spaced 1 week apart is recommended
• Average cost ranges from $500 – $1,500 per session
• Total investment is typically $2,500 – $7,500
• Provides moderate tightening and smoothing without surgery or downtime

How Much Does Trilift Cost?

Now for the big question – how much does this high-tech anti-aging facial cost? The average cost of a Trilift session ranges from $500 to $1,500. However, pricing can vary based on your provider and location.

Some factors impacting costs include:

• Geographic Location – Trilift costs more in expensive urban areas than rural areas.
• Provider’s Overhead Expenses – Well-appointed clinics in posh neighborhoods often charge more.
• Level of Experience – Providers with more expertise and years in practice may have higher pricing.
• Package Deals – Many offer discounted rates if you pay upfront for a series of sessions.

With five sessions needed for full treatment, you can expect to invest $2,500 to $7,500 for the complete Trilift experience. While not exactly cheap, many patients find the transformative effects worthwhile.

MedBeautyLA reports that the cost of a full triLift treatment protocol entails five sessions spaced one week apart, typically between $3,900-$5,000.

LIVationCT offers various triLift pricing packages, with prices ranging from $249 to $5,770 for different sessions and treatments.

What is Trilift and How Does it Work?

Trilift is a treatment developed by Lumenis using two key technologies:

• Radiofrequency (RF) microneedling – This painlessly sends radiofrequency energy into the deeper skin layers using tiny needles. The heat and RF energy encourage new collagen formation to improve texture.
• Dynamic muscle stimulation (DMST) – Trilift uses special applicators to send impulses that make facial muscles contract. This tones and lifts the face without surgery.

Together, these two technologies provide both deep and surface-level skin tightening and contouring. Some providers even call Trilift a “non-surgical facelift.”

What Does the Trilift Treatment Feel Like?

Patients describe Trilift as comfortable and relaxing – no pain or recovery downtime. You simply lie back while the technician glides the warm applicators over different areas of your face and neck. The 30 to 60-minute sessions are customized to your aesthetic goals.

You can resume normal activities immediately after. Some redness or swelling may occur but fades within a few hours. After a treatment or two, most patients notice tighter, firmer skin, reduced wrinkles, and a subtly contoured appearance.

How Many Trilift Sessions Are Needed?

A complete Trilift treatment plan entails five sessions spaced one week apart. Here’s a look at what happens with each:

• Session 1 – This longer first visit includes a skin analysis. Your technician will determine the right settings and applicators to use. You’ll already notice some mild improvements.
• Sessions 2-4 – These maintenance sessions build on the benefits of the first, gradually improving skin tone and facial contouring over time.
• Session 5 – The final visit locks in the full effects. Your technician may tweak the treatment areas and settings to target any remaining problem spots.

After your initial treatment series, annual or semi-annual maintenance is recommended to sustain Trilift’s youthful results long-term.

How Does Trilift Compare to Other Facial Rejuvenation Options?

Trilift isn’t the only facial tightening treatment out there. Here’s how it stacks up against some popular alternatives.

Compared to Ultherapy

• Ultherapy relies solely on focused ultrasound energy. Trilift combines ultrasound and radiofrequency for better skin improvements.
• Ultherapy requires only 1-3 sessions versus Trilift’s 5 sessions. But Trilift provides more dramatic muscle toning and tightening effects.
• Costs are comparable, with Ultherapy averaging $500-$3,000 per session.

Compared to Injectables like Botox

• Botox simply paralyzes muscles to relax wrinkles. Trilift stimulates natural collagen and muscle contractions for longer-lasting smoothing and lifting.
• Botox takes effect faster but doesn’t improve skin texture or contouring like Trilift.
• Botox costs roughly $300-$1,000 per session every 3-6 months to maintain. Trilift’s results are longer lasting after the initial treatment series.

Compared to Traditional Surgical Facelift

• A surgical face lift remains the “gold standard” for dramatically enhancing a sagging or wrinkled face and neck. But it requires anesthesia and weeks of downtime.
• Trilift is non-invasive, with no surgery or lengthy recovery. But surgical facelifts still provide more pronounced effects for severely aged faces.
• A surgical facelift costs $10,000 to $20,000 on average – significantly more than Trilift.

Is Trilift Right for You?

Trilift works best for patients who want moderate facial rejuvenation without surgery or downtime. Those with early jowls, wrinkles, or loose neck skin will benefit most. The procedure excels at providing a subtle “lifted” appearance.

People with very sagging or sun-damaged skin may still need a surgical facelift to get the dramatic effects they desire. Discuss your facial goals with a provider to decide if Trilift is your best option.
