(Short Incision Midface Lift)
Among the many beneficial effects of the SIM (Short Incision Midface-lift) technique, the real goal is to treat the effects of aging and genetics of the eyelids. With surgery, it is possible to achieve a younger and smoother aspect. In addition to improving the physical aspect, the SIM Technique provides more self-esteem and confidence for our patients. This is because the surgery is done with minimal cuts, which aid in a faster recovery.
Know and understand more about the procedure created by Dr. Roberto Limongi: SIM (Short Incision Midface-lift) technique:
The SIM technique, developed by Dr. Roberto Limongi, arose from the need to raise the middle third of the face using minimal cuts, resulting in a more beautiful aesthetic result for the patient, and may even improve the unwanted Chinese mustache.
Among the numerous advantages of the SIM (Short Incision Midface-lift) technique for the face, the method is excellent in reducing dark circles. Surgery repositions the orbicularis muscle of the eyes in a higher position on the face, bringing with it the soft and fallen tissues under the eyes. Thus, the dark circles are softened and the face becomes a less tired and more jovial and healthy appearance.
The SIM technique can correct eyelid bags by removing or repositioning eyelid fat.

Aging, or even genetic factors, produce consequences such as bags, wrinkles, and depressions on the face, mainly due to the laxity of periocular tissues.⠀ The SIM technique is a way to make the look more jovial, regardless of their age.⠀
The SIM technique corrects eyelid mispositioning by elevating the midface, thus repositioning the flaccid orbicularis muscle and SMAS, giving greater support to the lower eyelid.

No. One of the advantages of performing this procedure is that small cuts are made in the lower region of the eyelashes and extend through a wrinkle in the outer corner of the eye, that is, a little invasive and promotes minimal scars in the postoperative period.
The procedure is performed in the operating room, under local anesthesia plus sedation.
No, the procedure is performed in the operating room and lasts on average two hours. It is done on an outpatient basis, for greater convenience and patient safety.
The postoperative period is usually painless. The patient needs to make a cold compress and use ointments and eye drops. That is, it is something a little invasive and promotes minimal scars in the postoperative period, with minimal discomfort.

Looseness and sagging are a combination that can cause skin folds and cause bags and wrinkles in the eyelid and cheekbone. With the SIM technique, which elevates the orbicularis muscle and the SMAS, soft tissues are repositioned, decreasing weight in certain areas (Chinese mustache) and bringing volume to other areas (dark circles and cheekbones).
