8 Point Face Lift MD Codes

The MD Codes™ are a series of precise injection points which instead of treating the problem area, focus on treating the cause of the issue. Dr Maurcio De Maio recognised that by providing a holistic approach, patients benefit far greater and receive the optimum results from their treatment. Results are long-lasting, effective and natural-looking. Dermal fillers can be used extensively across the face for rejuvenation and volume. The main areas of focus are the temples, the brow, cheeks, under eye, chin, jawline and lips.

In the past, injection methods were rather ad hoc, and instead of treating with purpose, injectors were frequently treating as they saw fit on the day.
The MD Codes™ allow for bespoke, tailor-made treatment still; however, they add a formulated structure to injecting, meaning results are far more superior, and facial anatomy and facial proportions are taken into consideration.
Unlike traditional methods where the problem area was treated directly, the MD Codes™, including the 8 Point Lift which had been previously introduced, take on a holistic approach to injecting. Instead of adding weight and volume to the issue, the Codes target the source of the problem, greatly benefiting the patient. Results can be seen immediately with dermal fillers and you will see the effects taking place during the course of the treatment.?.

There are a number of medical conditions and or medicines that may affect the decision to treat or the treatment plan. A full medical history and assessment of your expectations is necessary in advance of any decision to treat.

With any injectable treatment;
Treatment is not recommended if you are suffering from any skin infection in or near the treatment area or are unwell in any way (even a cold).
If you have previously experienced allergic reactions to any dermal filler or local anaesthetic.
If you are taking any medicines which affect bleeding, such as aspirin or warfarin.
If you are taking steroids or have autoimmune disease.

Caution
Injections on the face can trigger the cold sore virus. If you are a sufferer, you must advise your clinician in advance of treatment. If you have recently had treatment with any other dermal filler.
If you are planning to attend a special event when a bruise, should it occur, would be unacceptable to you. Some over the counter medicines and supplements can also affect bleeding (make you more prone to bruising) as can alcohol- which should be avoided the day before and after treatment.
Vigorous exercise, sun exposure, sun beds, sauna should be avoided for 48 hours, or as advised by your clinician, after treatment. Safety has not been established for those skins susceptible to keloid scarring.
If, having had treatment, you are at all concerned about symptoms you were not expecting or not happy with, please contact the practitioner for advice. If necessary an appointment will be made for you to be seen.
