MIAMI, March 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Dr. Rian A. Maercks of The Maercks Institute Miami announced the amazing permanence of hyaluronic acid fillers used in his signature Aesthetic Facial Balancing Procedures. In light of this release, hyaluronic acid fillers may represent not only the safest class of injectable fillers but also the most permanent.

In the multibillion dollar industry of aesthetic medicine, a patient's choices and offerings can be overwhelming. Countless products prey on our desires to have natural-appearing interventions with lasting power that do not require constant maintenance. Dr. Rian A. Maercks, a Miami plastic surgeon, has long preached the superiority of hyaluronic acid based fillers over all others and warned against claims of permanence from other filler products. "The reality is that the products that are marketed as semi-permanent and permanent universally destroy native tissues and fat, actually causing premature aging and multiple potential complications. Hyaluronic acid is unique in that it is naturally occurring all over the body and if handled appropriately the body integrates and grows into it in an amazingly powerful manner," Maercks explains (www.RianMaercksMD.com).

Dr. Maercks uses hyaluronic acid at concentrations and volumes disparate from products as they come packaged. "All fillers were initially approved and promoted to treat wrinkles and be injected intradermally, an indication and application where they all do very poorly. The preparation of these fillers has been designed to make the most of these poor applications and is not tuned for what I use them for, balancing the face volumetrically."

Aesthetic Facial Balancing is a concept and procedure in which Dr. Maercks uses amounts of filler that greatly exceed mainstream practice. To demonstrate his concepts, Maercks filmed a mini-documentary in which he balances his own face with a shocking 35 milliliters of hyaluronic acid and released it publicly on YouTube ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AAf3JrC5Nxc ).

Today, The Maercks Institute announced the pending release of an updated video demonstrating the changes to the doctor's face in the past two and one half years. Shockingly, despite lack of maintenance, the aging changes are minimal and the doctor appears approximately fifteen years younger than he did over two years ago.

These findings challenge the idea that HA fillers can only offer temporary correction. Dr. Maercks believes that, consistent with a plethora of scientific literature, his application of HA fillers allows a prolonged stimulation of local stem cells through a defined cell surface receptor for hyaluronic acid. According to Maercks' theory the diffuse application at modified concentrations allows the deteriorating filler to be replaced with healthy vascular tissue through the embryonic process of angiogenisis over several years.

"I always believed, and now have demonstrated with my own face, that we can actually create the most permanent and by far the most health-promoting changes with this substance that is widely considered a temporary fix." Next week the updated video will be released with a detailed computer analysis of Dr. Maercks' face and the minimal maintenance that the doctor deems necessary.
