The MD Codes are a new approach to the face developed by Doctor Mauricio di Maio, a Brazilian aesthetic surgeon. Facial aging and morphology are addressed thoughtfully using a system of codes. For each facial element, identified with a letter, the treatment plan is defined by numbers.
The MD Codes are a facial injection map designed to reveal each face’s beauty, enhance it, reinforce positive emotions, and eliminate negative ones.
For the first time, facial aging can be treated by targeting the causes, rather than the consequences.
The face is divided into anatomical units, each defined by a letter. Each letter is accompanied by a number that defines the injection order.
For each desired outcome, an equation determines the treatment plan.
For example, for facial rejuvenation, the equation may look like this :
CK1 + CK2 + CK3 + CK4 + Tt1 + Tt2 + Tt3 + Lp1 + Lp2 + Lp3 + Lp4 + Lp5 + Lp6 + Lp7 + Jw1 + Jw4 + C1 + C2
Several treatments are possible using this revolutionary technique.
The variations of the MD Codes are performed using hyaluronic acid and Botox.
Hyaluronic acid is injected according to precise measurements — its use is reproducible and mathematical.
This technique must be performed by an experienced doctor — one does not improvise as an MD Codes expert !
For each facial element, everything is clearly defined :
Results are immediate with hyaluronic acid injections, and visible after one week for Botox.
Aftercare is minimal — bruising is rare and very mild.
When performed by an experienced doctor, this technique restores facial volume, improves fine lines, erases negative emotions, sculpts the face, and brings a Skin Radiance boost.
The result is natural and harmonious.
The main concerns of patients are addressed :
The cost of an MD Codes treatment depends mainly on the number of areas injected, the overall strategy defined during the consultation, and the volume of product required to achieve a balanced and coherent result. The approach is fully personalized, which means price variations from one patient to another are completely normal.
Hyaluronic acid injections are billed at 600 CHF per syringe. This rate is applied uniformly, regardless of the type of injection performed within the MD Codes mapping. Depending on facial structure and the degree of correction desired, several syringes may be necessary. The exact number is determined based on the patient’s anatomy.
Botulinum toxin treatment can be included in this approach when it helps support the overall facial balance. For a single area, the cost is 300 CHF for women and 350 CHF for men. When two areas need to be treated, the cost is 450 CHF for women and 500 CHF for men. If a complete treatment of the upper third is indicated — including forehead, glabella, and crow’s feet — the price is 600 CHF for women and 650 CHF for men.

Oui, les MD Codes™ sont adaptés à tous les types de visages et à toutes les tranches d’âge. Chez les jeunes adultes, ils permettent de mieux définir les contours, d’améliorer l’harmonie du visage et de corriger des asymétries. Chez les patients plus âgés, les MD Codes™ sont utilisés pour restaurer les volumes perdus, lisser les rides et améliorer l’ovale du visage. La méthode est totalement personnalisée en fonction des besoins et des attentes de chaque patient.
La principale différence réside dans l’approche stratégique et scientifique des MD Codes™. Contrairement aux techniques traditionnelles qui ciblent souvent des zones isolées, les MD Codes™ se basent sur une cartographie précise et tiennent compte des relations entre les différentes zones du visage. L’objectif est de restaurer les volumes de manière cohérente et naturelle, en prenant en compte les expressions et les émotions, pour un résultat plus harmonieux et durable.
Oui, les MD Codes™ peuvent être combinés avec d’autres traitements esthétiques pour optimiser les résultats. Par exemple, les injections de Botox peuvent être réalisées en complément pour lisser les rides d’expression, tandis que les peelings chimiques peuvent améliorer la texture et l’éclat de la peau. Cette approche globale permet d’obtenir un résultat plus complet et naturel, en traitant à la fois le volume, la fermeté et la qualité de la peau.
