Forehead lift in Zafir Medical Center
About the clinic
A forehead lift, also known as frontoplastia or forehead reduction, is available at Zafir Medical Center in Mexico City. This permanent surgical procedure helps balance facial proportions by lowering a high hairline. Dr. Fernando Cravioto performs this surgery using techniques that hide scars within the hair for a natural look.
Advanced Forehead Reduction Techniques
The procedure focuses on hairline advancement or frontal remodeling to reduce the forehead height. Depending on scalp elasticity, Dr. Fernando Cravioto can lower the hairline by 1.5–5 cm. The surgery takes about 2 hours to complete under general anesthesia. It is an ambulatory procedure, so patients usually go home the same day. Dr. Fernando Cravioto places incisions just inside the hairline to make sure the resulting scar is hidden.
Expertise of Dr. Fernando Cravioto
Dr. Fernando Cravioto is a certified plastic, aesthetic, and reconstructive surgeon. He is the creator of the Técnica Première, a specific method for facial harmonization. Dr. Fernando Cravioto holds certifications from the Mexican Council of Plastic, Aesthetic and Reconstructive Surgery. He is also an active member of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ISAPS). His focus on facial aesthetics helps patients achieve balanced and natural results in a single session.
Recovery and Results
Most patients can return to work within 14–21 days. The initial recovery period lasts about 2–3 weeks, while physical activities should be paused for 4–6 weeks. Stitches are typically removed between days 12 and 14 after the surgery. While results are visible immediately, the final look is definitive after 12 months. The scar usually becomes nearly invisible between 6 and 12 months post-surgery.
Safe Care at Zafir Medical Center
Zafir Medical Center is a boutique facility located in the Interlomas district of Mexico City. The center complies with all Mexican health authority regulations for patient safety. Patients have access to specialized recovery tools like a hyperbaric oxygen therapy chamber. The clinic also features an on-site café and dedicated relaxation areas for a comfortable stay. Before surgery, patients undergo a medical evaluation, laboratory tests, and a photographic analysis to confirm candidacy.
