MD Codes™ dermal filler treatments offer a modern, precise solution, designed to restore balance, lift, and natural harmony to the face. By mapping specific injection points that address both anatomy and emotion, this approach creates results that are not just visible, but transformative—reviving confidence and revealing a refreshed, authentic you.

MD Codes™ are a scientifically developed system for dermal filler placement, created by world-renowned plastic surgeon Dr Mauricio de Maio. This innovative method uses strategic, anatomically defined injection points across the face to deliver natural, balanced, and emotionally positive results. Unlike traditional filler treatments that target only wrinkles or folds, MD Codes™ address the underlying structures and emotional messages of the face—restoring harmony, lifting sagging, and rejuvenating expression.

Whether you want to reduce a tired appearance, soften deep lines, or enhance contours, MD Codes™ offer a personalised treatment plan that combines safety, predictability, and artistry.

What Are MD Codes™

MD Codes™ divide the face into specific anatomical regions—such as cheeks, jawline, chin, temples, lips, and forehead—each with unique “codes” that guide precise filler placement. These codes allow practitioners to: 

By focusing on both anatomy and emotion, MD Codes™ offer a holistic approach to facial rejuvenation.

Key Aspects of MD Codes™

Benefits of MD Codes™ Filler Treatments

Understanding the SMAS: A Key Support Structure

The SMAS lies beneath the skin and subcutaneous tissue, serving as one of the most crucial support structures for the face and neck. Strengthening the SMAS with strategically placed dermal fillers, as guided by MD Codes, addresses issues such as collagen loss, bone resorption, deep fat pad depletion, and muscle weakness. Volumising the deep fat pads with dermal fillers helps lift the ligaments that support the facial foundation.

I have been to multiple Skin Renewals branches and changed my home branch as I wanted a new therapist. I visited Bedfordview after a long time for a doctors visit and honestly forgot how amazing the Reception team are. As you walk in, you are greeted with such warmth that you immediately feel special. The ladies should be the gold standard as they are just amazing. A special thanks to Maryke and Catarina. Will actually do all my doctor appointments at Bedfordview just to see the lovely team.
