What it is
An endoscopic brow lift repositions the tissues of the forehead and eyebrows with the assistance of an endoscope: a high-definition camera that lets the surgeon see the internal structures through incisions placed in the scalp.
In Dr. Fernando Mattioli’s protocol, videoendoscopy is not limited to the upper third. It is used to treat the face as a whole, and the brow lift is one of the possible steps of the plan.

Who it is for
The indication is always individual and defined at the consultation. In general, an endoscopic brow lift is discussed in the following situations:
- Descent of the eyebrows, especially at the outer portion
- Changes in the position of the forehead tissues related to aging
- Excess upper eyelid skin associated with the position of the eyebrows
- Planning together with blepharoplasty or a facelift, when indicated
Health history, physical examination and expectations are assessed at an in-person consultation. Surgery may not be indicated in every case.

Hospital setting
The surgery is performed in a hospital. The type of anesthesia and the length of stay are defined by the team for each case.
