Les techniques de médecine à visée esthétique remplacent de plus en plus les actes de chirurgie pour la prise en charge du visage. Les plans de traitement ont tellement évolué qu’il est possible, pour un médecin expérimenté, de transformer complètement un visage.
Les injections d’acide hyaluronique et de toxine botulique sont le pilier de la prise en charge.
In some indications, just a few syringes of product are enough. However, depending on the patient's anatomy and the desired result, full-face treatments (where ten to twenty syringes are used) are possible.
Facial enhancement techniques owe a great deal to Brazilian plastic surgeon Mauricio di Maio, who invented the MD Codes and developed a new way of treating the face.
Not all doctors offer this type of treatment, which requires a trained eye for the beauty and proportions of the face and perfect technical mastery.
La quête de la beauté et du rajeunissement est une préoccupation constante pour beaucoup d’entre nous. Il existe aujourd’hui des solutions pointues pour l’embellissement facial, solutions qui permettent de sublimer le visage sans recourir à des interventions chirurgicales lourdes. Grâce à des techniques modernes et des produits innovants, il est possible d’obtenir des résultats naturels et harmonieux, améliorant ainsi la confiance en soi et le bien-être général.
Any part of the face can be treated, but the most commonly targeted areas include :
• Cheekbones : adding volume to the cheekbones can refine the face and create a more youthful, sculpted appearance.
• Chin : a well-defined chin enhances facial structure, improving the jawline and symmetry.
• Jawline : contouring the jawline strengthens its definition, giving a more refined and harmonious appearance.
• Nose : enhancing the shape and symmetry of the nose through injections achieves a natural result without surgery.
• Temples and forehead : treating these areas helps balance facial proportions, particularly in cases of volume loss.
Facial contouring relies on various aesthetic medicine techniques, which can be combined for a comprehensive and harmonious result.
Hyaluronic acid is a key product for facial contouring. Its hydrating and volumizing properties restore or create volume, improve wrinkles, and soften features safely. It is commonly used for enhancing cheekbones, reshaping the chin, or accentuating the jawline. Hyaluronic acid provides immediate and natural results, with gradual absorption allowing for adjustments over time.
Sculptra is a bio-stimulating product made from poly-L-lactic acid, used to restore skin density and firmness by stimulating natural collagen production. It is particularly effective for progressive volume restoration, offering subtle yet long-lasting results. Sculptra is ideal for patients seeking natural improvement in skin texture and volume, especially in areas such as the temples, cheeks, and regions where the skin has lost density over time.
toxine botulque est principalement utilisée pour relaxer les muscles responsables de certaines rides d’expression.
Medical contouring offers several advantages :
• Natural and subtle results : the goal is to enhance natural features with a discreet yet impactful transformation.
• Non-surgical approach : these techniques are non-invasive, requiring no incisions or prolonged recovery time.
• Customizable treatment : each procedure is tailored to the patient’s specific needs, ensuring a personalized approach.
• Immediate and long-lasting results : visible improvements from the first session, with optimal effects developing over a few weeks.
• Safe and adjustable : results can be modified over time to adapt to facial changes due to aging and the patient’s preferences.
A personalized consultation is conducted to assess the patient’s needs and expectations, analyze facial structure, and determine the most suitable injection technique.
Once the treatment plan is established, the targeted area is disinfected, and precise injections are performed according to the defined objectives, sculpting and harmonizing facial contours. Each product is injected at different depths and strategic points, depending on the desired volume and structure. The session typically lasts between 30 minutes and one hour, depending on the areas treated and techniques used.
After the injection, Dr. Romano provides post-treatment instructions to optimize results and minimize potential side effects, such as mild redness or swelling, which subside quickly. Patients can resume their normal activities immediately, with visible contouring effects from the first session. Results continue to improve over the following weeks.
Les résultats du contouring du visage sont visibles immédiatement pour l’acide hyaluronique, une semaine après pour la toxine botulique et quelques mois après pour le Sculptra. Ils durent environ un an.
Patients see a better-defined, more harmonious face with improved balance of features.
Patients who undergo facial contouring report high satisfaction, appreciating the subtle yet noticeable enhancement of their features. Many highlight increased self-confidence and a rejuvenated appearance without looking "overdone." Reviews confirm the effectiveness and safety of contouring techniques, which deliver personalized, long-lasting, and natural-looking results.
Pour affiner le visage avec un contouring, il est possible d’utiliser des techniques de maquillage ou des traitements esthétiques comme les injections d’acide hyaluronique. Le maquillage consiste à jouer avec les ombres et les lumières pour sculpter les traits, tandis que les injections permettent de redéfinir durablement les contours du visage, notamment la mâchoire, les pommettes et le menton.
Effective contouring involves applying two shades :
• A darker shade to sculpt and slim areas like the hollows of the cheeks, jawline, and sides of the nose.
• A lighter shade or highlighter to enhance the high points of the face, such as the cheekbones, nose bridge, center of the forehead, and chin.
Blending is key to achieving a smooth, natural look.
To prolong results :
• Schedule maintenance sessions every 12 to 18 months.
• Use daily moisturizing skincare to preserve hydration and volume.
• Avoid excessive sun exposure and apply sunscreen regularly.
• Maintain a healthy lifestyle with good hydration and a balanced diet to support skin longevity.
