MD Codes
MD Codes represent a major advance in the field of aesthetic medicine , allowing for a targeted response to facial transformations over time. This method, developed by Dr. Mauricio De Maio , is based on precise mapping of the human face, identifying 75 strategic injection points . These points are associated with letters and numbers: the letters designate the specific anatomical units, while the numbers indicate the optimal sequences for administering injections.
The areas affected by these injections are varied and include key regions of the face , such as the tear trough , lips , cheeks , cheekbones , temples , forehead , jawline , nasolabial folds , marionette lines and chin . Thanks to this precise and methodical approach, it is possible to treat a wide range of signs of aging, restoring volume , firmness and radiance to the face.
Dr. Sébastien-François Durieux, trained and mentored by Dr. De Maio, has mastered this innovative technique with expertise . Every day in his practice, he applies the MD Codes with great precision to achieve natural and harmonious results .
"I perform injections using a needle or a cannula, depending on the area to be treated. Depending on the needs, I use different techniques such as fan injection, retro-tracing or bolus. The injections can be performed at different levels: deep for a volumizing effect, in a mid-plane for a lifting effect, or superficially to treat more superficial fine lines," he explains.
The volume injected varies depending on the area and the desired effect, whether it is to restore volume , lift certain areas of the face or achieve a more subtle result . Thanks to this precise treatment method, Dr. Durieux allows his patients to benefit from facial rejuvenation , while preserving a natural and balanced appearance.
