Editorial bio · audio
0:000:00
Dr. Edgar Santos is a facial plastic surgeon based in Mexico City who holds board certification from the Iberolatinoamerican Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (IBCFPRS) and the European Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (EBCFPRS). His training pathway began at Mexico's Military Medical School, followed by specialty residency in Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, and was completed through two distinct subspecialty programs concentrated in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. This sequenced foundation places his practice within the otolaryngology-trained branch of facial plastic surgery, a pathway emphasizing detailed head-and-neck anatomy. The practice is exclusively facial in scope, with deep plane facelift offered alongside rhinoplasty, revision rhinoplasty, and neck lift. The deep plane component centers on release and repositioning of the SMAS layer to address midface and jawline descent. Consultations are conducted in Spanish and English, supporting both the Mexico City metropolitan patient base and patients traveling from elsewhere in Mexico and abroad. Patients may meet with him in person at his Mexico City clinic. Dr. Santos maintains a public clinical presence at dredgarsantos.com and on Instagram (@dr_edgar), where representative work is documented. The DEEPPLANE™ editorial board reviews each surgeon record against primary-source credentials, certifying-body registries, and hospital or society listings, and updates the file when new verifiable information becomes available.Synthetic voice.
