The medical facelift

Today, thanks to a more in-depth analysis of aging, specific hyaluronic acids, and more methodical injection techniques, we can claim to not only fill wrinkles, but achieve a medical facelift.
Patients now enter aesthetic medical practices with a more global vision of their care.

It is therefore essential to take the necessary time during the first consultation to carefully analyze the face, without expression and in action, in order to offer an adjusted treatment for an absolutely perfect and natural result.

Emotions felt like sadness, fatigue or severity take hold over the years on the face. I must therefore guide you towards the most suitable treatments not only to heal the damage already visible but also to prevent wrinkles and sagging.

The process of coming to an aesthetic doctor is not trivial and is based on a very legitimate desire to 'age well': I see myself well, I feel good.

The emotional dimension in the consultation

During the first consultation, after knowing your previous medical and aesthetic history, I hear your motivations, your expectations and your needs.

Your face reveals your experience: its genetics, its history, its excesses (sun, cigarettes), its joys and its sorrows….

It is precious time to allow me to listen to your request, to analyze your face when it is expressed and when it is at rest, to study its asymmetries as well as the quality of its skin….

This consultation time aims to offer you the most suitable injections in order to erase your tired look, your sad pout or a heavy slackness.

Symptoms of skin aging

From the age of 30, the first signs of aging set in. We can detect early signs of facial dysfunction linked to a receding chin, marked dark circles or deep nasolabial folds. The analysis of facial expressions and statics will give me the opportunity to draw up a predictive diagnosis of your aging.

The quality of the skin is important (oily, thick, thin and dry), of course, but it is above all the structure and muscular tone of the face which will promote sagging, wrinkles and the inversion of the youth triangle. So this is where my action will be.

There are 3 progressive modes of facial aging:

Tired face even in the morning when you wake up (areas concerned: gray dots)

• The eyebrow falls
• The glabella is marked
• The hollow of dark circles surrounds the eye
• Cheekbones lose their curve
• The nasolabial folds deepen

Sunken, sad or severe face (affected areas: purple spots)

• The cheeks hollow
• The temples sink
• The orbit widens and empties the rim of the eye
• The mouth becomes thinner and loses its shape
• The chin comes forward
• The gaze droops
• Wrinkles multiply, due to the disappearance of the subcutaneous fat cushion

Sagging, relaxed, heavy face (affected areas: purple and red spots)

• The oval of the face is less well defined
• The nasolabial folds become more pronounced
• The fold of bitterness (small wrinkle that runs from the corner of the mouth towards the chin) appears
• Jowls form
• The eyebrows fall and close the gaze

This complete treatment is called liquid lift Or medical facelift

For hyaluronic acid injections, there are MD Codes (Multi Dimensional Codes) developed by the famous Brazilian cosmetic surgeon: Mauricio Di Maio

Mauricio Di Maio defined 75 injection points on the face taking into account bony reliefs, fat compartments, muscles and vascular and nervous structures. Each point corresponds to a precise indication and will have a filling action, a lifting impact but also a muscle relaxation action.

Based on this constant, facial analysis is a key moment of the consultation. It is therefore necessary to define all the injection points that will be necessary.

Thanks to MD Codes, you can enhance a face, redraw an oval, fill hollows in the cheeks, dark circles, temples and chin, erase wrinkles, smooth features, draw a mouth, correct a nose, fill in a receding chin… MD codes help strengthen the foundations of the face for better support, improve contours and reduce wrinkles.

This technique also makes it possible to analyze how a moving face behaves and not to freeze the expressions of a face.

You need a certain quantity of hyaluronic acid to work overall on a marked face, because the result is not only linked to the injection technique but also to the quantity and quality of the hyaluronic acid injected.

The result will meet your expectations and will need to be maintained with a few annual touch-ups.

After the medical facelift

After a medical facelift, you can resume your activities, without social exclusion. It is a work where precise analysis and meticulous technique come together for a harmonious result completely adapted to your personality. You will find energy, freshness and a crazy desire to look in the mirror again.
