Injectables – MD Codes Facelift

A departure from facial filler treatments of the past, the MD Codes facelift offers a set of precise guidelines for dermatologists to work with. It is developed by renowned plastic surgeon Dr Mauricio de Maio of Brazil, and follows a series of injection points to effectively target skin conditions and their underlying causes.

Precise & Effective
As we age, our skin starts to lose its elasticity and plumpness, and problems like lines and wrinkles and sagging skin start to appear. Instead of the traditional way of injecting fillers directly into the problem sites, MD Codes provides 8 injection sites, each made up of a set of different injection points, for a more systematic and effective treatment.

These codes are drawn up based on a deep understanding of the human face anatomy, and seek to not only address the symptoms of ageing but also the root causes of these symptoms. This holistic treatment approach that focuses on the problem source is said to give patients a more natural look.

Natural & Long-lasting
Our MD Codes facelift is performed using Juvederm’s VYCROSS Collection hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers. These HA fillers are engineered with a different molecular weight (10% high, 90% low), resulting in a smoother filler and lesser downtime. A smoother filler means lesser pain and swelling post-treatment.

The MD Codes facelift treatment is effective for lifting the cheeks, nasolabial folds and jawlines, and reducing lines and wrinkles on the temples and around the eyes. With the precision of the injection points and the recommended injection sequence, our dermatologist can better tailor a treatment solution according to facial profile and skin problems to achieve optimal results.

Being a minimally-invasive procedure, there will be relatively little pain. A numbing cream will be applied before the treatment to reduce any discomfort. Slight bruising and swelling are to be expected but should subside within a day. Results are immediate and can last up to 12-18 months.
