Summer improvement: “8 points lifting” procedure
How to tighten the oval of the face, reduce nasolabial folds and tame facial expressions in an hour? We sent our reader to the Beauty Trend clinic.
Our spring-summer improvement is in full swing: Yana tightened her oval shape with Botox, removed age spots and capillaries, Yulia got rid of blood vessels, Olya is fighting belly fat with LazerJazz.
As part of the same project, we sent one reader to the Beauty Trend clinic for the “8 point lifting” procedure. The method was invented by Brazilian plastic surgeon and cosmetologist Maurissio de Mayo. The point is to inject fillers and Botox into certain points, and in one visit to the doctor, make your face younger and fresher.
Natalya pulled out the lottery ticket. Natasha is 36 years old; in her application she wrote that she carefully monitors her skin, but cannot cope without a specialist magician: “My son is 19, and I’m used to the fact that we were perceived as brother and sister. But lately something has gone wrong :) So it’s time to take action. A couple of years ago I injected Botox and put in fillers. Since then, of course, they have dissolved. And now I don’t like the oval shape of my face, wrinkles on the forehead and under the eyes, and nasolabial folds.”

Dr. Svetlana Lvovna Artyukhina, who, by the way, studied with Maurissio de Mayo, promised to take Natasha’s wishes into account: “I am going to reduce the nasolabial folds and return sagging cheekbones to their place, making the oval of the face clearer. I won’t add extra volume - shadows must remain on the face, otherwise it will become flat. We will inject a small amount of filler into the lips - they will look more harmonious. I’ll treat the forehead and area around the eyes with Botox, but in such a way that lively facial expressions remain.”
Natasha likes everything. True, she is a little worried about her lips - will they look like silicone dumplings? Svetlana assures, under no circumstances: “I am against hyper-correction and unnatural faces.”
After applying the Emla anesthetic cream, Svetlana injects Juviderm Voluma filler into Natalya’s cheekbones. It is designed specifically for correcting the mid-face area.
Svetlana Artyukhina: “The cheekbones will pull the oval along with them, it will become clearer.”
“If you put the drug on the cheekbone, it will attract less water, and we will avoid hypervolume.”
Let's move on to the lips. Natasha is still noticeably worried.
The doctor uses Juviderm Smile filler, it is soft and flexible, created specifically for this area.
This is what lips look like when filler was injected only on the left side.
Svetlana: “The effect is now a little more pronounced - due to swelling. In a week, when it subsides, the volume will become even more delicate.”
But Natasha suddenly said: “And I like it that way!”
Using the same Juviderm Smile filler, the doctor lifts the corners of the lips and removes emerging wrinkles on the chin.
Then Juviderm Volift smoothes out the nasolabial folds.
We're done with fillers, let's move on to Botox.
Svetlana applies markings with a pencil - on the forehead and area around the eyes, and gets down to business: “I remember Natasha’s wishes to keep her facial expressions moving. I myself believe that a face should be alive.”
During the last injections, Svetlana and Natasha joked like old girlfriends.
Immediately after the procedure, Natasha looks like this:
Immediately after the procedure
The doctor says we need to wait until the swelling subsides and the fillers and Botox settle in, and gives recommendations: two weeks without baths and saunas. Then stop by for a checkup.
But it’s already clear that Natasha really likes it. Do you often suffocate in the arms of your cosmetologist?)
Svetlana Artyukhina: “Looking at my lips, no one can say that there was any intervention: I left all the natural folds. Due to the fact that the cheekbones were lifted, the face became more triangular. The oval is clearer, the overhang of the nasolabial fold has decreased. With the help of Botox, we relaxed the muscles on the forehead and around the eyes, the wrinkle between the eyebrows immediately disappeared, the light began to be reflected differently, and the face looked fresher.
In my opinion, everything worked out perfectly, but we need to evaluate the result in two weeks.”
Natasha: “Before submitting my application, I looked at Svetlana’s work. I liked them, so I had a rough idea of what kind of result to expect. During the appointment, the doctor inspired trust and respect. She very interestingly said that if you remove all the shadows on your face, it will appear flat. In general, the atmosphere in the office is captivating - I didn’t think it was possible to get so many positive emotions during the procedure.
Now my lips hurt a little. There are no other unpleasant sensations. So great! I didn’t know it was so easy to lift the corners of your lips. I thought it was difficult. Well, how can you make your lips look so natural?”
Natasha arrived at the follow-up meeting in heels and with bright lipstick (which, alas, had to be washed off for an objective before/after assessment).
Result after two and a half weeks:
Svetlana Artyukhina: “Everything is great! The patient is happy, which means the doctor is happy too. The effect of fillers will last approximately 18 months, Botox will last from six months to a year. Lips - six to seven months. Everything is individual and depends on facial expressions. The more active it is, the faster the drugs will dissolve.”
Natasha: “I really, really like it. Although, maybe add a little more volume to the lips? :)"
And once again - “Before” and “After”.
The price of the “8 points lifting” procedure is from 40,000 rubles. (depending on the amount of drugs administered).

Where will they inject?
According to the protocol, the doctor will inject filler into 8 strategic points - or, as Mauricio himself called it, MD-codes.
1st and 2nd point - inserted in the cheekbone area. Here, the filler will help eliminate the severity of nasolabial folds and highlight the outlines of the cheekbones - this will instantly give a youthful appearance.
3 point - will help eliminate voids under the eyes, which give a “tired” look.
4th point - the introduction of hyaluronic acid into the area of the nasolabial triangle; according to cosmetologists, this will further improve the condition of the fold, complementing the effect of the first point.
5th point - the injection is made in the corners of the mouth, creating filler support and lifting them. As a result, the “sad” facial expression goes away and the woman looks happier :))))
6th point - filling volume at this point can immediately erase 5-10 years on the face. With age, the chin decreases slightly in volume and can even become deformed, which is why we see the “jowl” effect when all the soft tissues slide onto it.
The 7th point —the lower third of the face, and in particular the corner of the jaw—also tends to lose shape. The doctor, by injecting a minimal amount of the drug, will help remove this defect - and at the same time eliminate sagging skin in this part of the face.
8th point - elimination of sunken cheeks. They not only give you a gaunt look, but can also cause sagging skin and wrinkles in adjacent areas. Filling the area with gel will help restore natural contours.
Men, by the way, also go for the procedure because everything looks very natural.
WHAT IS JUVEDERM VOLUMA
With age, a person's appearance undergoes changes, which are primarily reflected on the face. Cosmetology products, fillers, which are an alternative to plastic surgery, help solve the problem. One of these products is Voluma Juvederm, which you can read more about on plastichno.com.
The use of Juvederm Voluma can improve the appearance of the following areas:
- nasolabial folds;
- cheekbones;
- cheeks;
- chin area and others.
The product, packaged in sterile 2 ml syringes, contains three components:
- Hyaluronic acid, responsible for replenishing volume, providing hydration and promoting tissue regeneration processes.
- Phosphate buffer is a substance responsible for stabilizing hyaluronic acid, helping to maintain the effect of the injection longer.
- Lidocaine is an anesthetic drug.
All components of the filler are included in the optimal dosage, allowing injections without additional pain relief.
When will we see the result?
The best thing about the procedure is that the results can be seen instantly. The doctor will show it periodically during the procedure to make sure you are happy with everything.
And now - drum roll: the effect will last from 1.5 to 2 years ! Despite the fact that the budget will have to be invested less than with the conventional filling technique. On average, 2-3 syringes of hyaluronic acid are used.
So, girls, who wants to look naturally young, attractive and well-groomed - go for a procedure with a good doctor!
