What is a brow lift?

A brow lift, or forehead lift, is a surgical procedure that repositions sagging brows to their natural position and smooths out forehead wrinkles and frown lines. With age, these changes can give the face a tired or tense appearance.

Dr. César López offers two main techniques based on each patient's needs: the traditional coronal brow lift, ideal for advanced skin laxity, and the endoscopic brow lift, a less invasive option with minimal scarring. Both approaches are designed to rejuvenate the upper face while preserving natural facial expression.

The procedure lasts approximately 1 hour, is performed under local anesthesia with sedation, and does not require hospitalization. Initial recovery takes about 7 to 10 days, and final results are visible within 3 months.

Requirements: Lab tests and cardiac evaluation for patients over 50.

Postoperative care:
Avoid physical strain for 2 weeks, consider LED therapy, and protect the treated area from sun exposure.

Benefits of an eyebrow lift

Undergoing plastic surgery with Dr. César López means more than simply refining a feature: it's about restoring balance, regaining confidence, and achieving results that feel as good as they look. Each procedure is designed not only to improve specific areas of the face or body, but also to improve overall harmony, comfort and well-being.levantamiento de cejas va más allá de elevar la posición de la ceja.

Cada cirugía se diseña de forma personalizada para mejorar la posición y proporción de las cejas, respetando la anatomía individual y priorizando resultados armónicos, naturales y duraderos, integrados a la expresión facial cotidiana.

Structural repositioning of the eyebrows

Instead of simply pulling the skin upwards, the procedure redefines soft tissue tension vectors and repositions the brow complex in an anatomically more favorable location.estructuras profundas del rostro, redefiniendo los vectores de tensión de los tejidos blandos y reposicionando el complejo de cejas en una ubicación anatómicamente más favorable.

Harmonization of the upper facial thirds

By adjusting the eyebrows and forehead, brow lift improves the proportional relationship between the forehead, the eyes and the middle part of the face, key to a visually balanced face.proporción entre la frente, los ojos y la zona media facial, un factor clave para lograr un rostro visualmente equilibrado y armónico.

Relaxation of hyperactive muscle groups

Is the result of the brow lift permanent?

Results typically last 7 to 10 years. While natural tissue aging continues, it does so from a much-improved baseline. The structure is restored—not frozen—allowing for a more graceful aging process.

Can a brow lift change my expression?

It should refine, not change, your expression. When properly executed, it removes signs of tension and fatigue, not your identity.

Is the endoscopic approach better than the traditional one?

Not necessarily. Endoscopic lifts offer a faster recovery, but their lifting potential is limited. The best method depends on your anatomy and your goals.

Can it be combined with other facial surgeries?

Yes, and often it should be. Facial aging is on several levels. Dr. López often combines brow lifts with blepharoplasty, facelifting, or periorbital contouring.
