Maercks<\/a>, M.D., P.A., American Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon, is an artist and a leading aesthetic, craniofacial, and reconstructive plastic surgeon, based in Miami, Florida. Haute Beauty chats with <a href=\"https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/member\/rian-a-maercks\/\">Dr. Maercks<\/a> about his signature Aesthetic Facial Balancing procedure\u00a0which rejuvenates the aging face by using the body\u2019s own fat or volumes of fillers to achieve surgical results without ever undergoing the knife.<\/p>\n<h3>HB: What is Aesthetic Facial Balancing?<\/h3>\n<p>I have combined my fine arts background, international training and advanced procedural techniques to develop Aesthetic Facial Balancing (AFB). \u00a0AFB is an advanced cosmetic enhancement that allows bespoke tailoring to create the most natural-appearing &amp; personalized results for each, individual patient. \u00a0Using hyaluronic acid injectable fillers, Aesthetic Facial Balancing, sometimes referred to as \u201cSelfie Sculpting\u201d leverages my training as an artist, craniofacial and reconstructive plastic surgeon to deliver patients beautiful, natural-appearing results.\u00a0 A patient\u2019s wrinkles, bags and imperfections disappear and skin-tone and appearance of pores improve. \u00a0The end result is a harmonizing of the face that unlocks the individual\u2019s beauty creating a more youthful, happy and healthy presentation.<\/p>\n<h3>HB: Do you prefer it to other methods?<\/h3>\n<p>Absolutely.\u00a0 AFB delivers results that most people think would require surgery. \u00a0However, it is actually done with nothing more than a needle and approximately a 15-minute procedure. \u00a0My results can mimic a rhinoplasty, facelift, blepharoplasty and browlift. \u00a0I reserve more invasive surgical procedures like composite face lifting for patients with very heavy necks and excessive laxity.HB: Who is a good candidate?<\/p>\n<p>Almost everyone\u00a0is good candidate for this needle-based procedure. \u00a0Both men and women can benefit from the subtle enhancements of AFB. \u00a0Balancing the facial features is appropriate for patients in their early twenties to sixties. \u00a0While patients will appear younger, this is not the only goal.\u00a0 Results are most effective in those that do not have excessive skin laxity. \u00a0I review all surgical and non-surgical options with a patient and then select the best treatments for the individual.<\/p>\n<h3>How does the procedure\/treatment work?<\/h3>\n<p>Aesthetic judgments can happen in a few hundred milliseconds.\u00a0 This is why we recognize an attractive person in a crowd.\u00a0 AFB alters this immediate perception of the face. \u00a0Patients simply look better on first glance without immediate or obvious explanation, all while looking 100% natural.<\/p>\n<p>Before starting the procedure, I will individually asses each patient\u2019s unique features and design a bespoke intervention to bring out the individual\u2019s beauty. \u00a0I make sure to discuss the aesthetic priorities of the patients face in an easy to understand subunit analysis while reviewing 3D imagery of their face. \u00a0The procedure is painless and is performed through a limited number of tiny needle entries. \u00a0A tiny blunt needle called a cannula is used to access the treated areas. \u00a0A full facial balancing with injectable fillers will give the patient correction from top to bottom, resulting in a refreshed, refined and natural look. \u00a0Patients can enjoy the results of a facelift, browlift and rhinoplasty as well as jaw contouring and other tweaks without surgery.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-636116 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/46982103_2087399834631930_8301841182355357696_o.jpg\" alt=\"Dr Maercks\" width=\"768\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/46982103_2087399834631930_8301841182355357696_o.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/46982103_2087399834631930_8301841182355357696_o-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/46982103_2087399834631930_8301841182355357696_o-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/46982103_2087399834631930_8301841182355357696_o-24x24.jpg 24w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/46982103_2087399834631930_8301841182355357696_o-48x48.jpg 48w, https:\/\/hauteliving.com\/hautebeauty\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/46982103_2087399834631930_8301841182355357696_o-96x96.jpg 96w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>HB: What does recovery look like?<\/h3>\n<p>The recovery time may vary depending on the amount of volume used during the procedure. \u00a0Other factors are age, overall health and post-procedure activities. \u00a0Commonly there is no significant recovery period when small subunit steps are planned. \u00a0More extensive interventions can lead to recovery time between 2-7 days. \u00a0In some cases, there is no recovery time but patients should be prepared for minimal swelling and rarely some bruising. Usually, a patient will leave my office thrilled with their outcome and happy to return back to his or her daily life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Rian Maercks chats with
