Tysons, Virginia Plastic Surgeon Dr. Munique Maia Introduces the MAIA Method for Deep Plane Facelift and Comprehensive Facial Rejuvenation

Board-certified, Harvard fellowship-trained plastic surgeon Dr. Munique Maia has introduced the MAIA Method, her signature approach to facial rejuvenation that combines deep plane facelift surgery, endoscopic facelift techniques, laser resurfacing, collagen-stimulating skin treatments, and personalized long-term maintenance. Serving Tysons, Northern Virginia, and the Washington, DC metropolitan area, the method is designed to address the growing demand for natural-looking facial rejuvenation that restores youthful contours while preserving facial expression and individuality. 

TYSONS CORNER, Va., Aug. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Board-certified, Harvard fellowship-trained plastic surgeon Dr. Munique Maia has formally introduced the MAIA Method, a comprehensive approach to facial rejuvenation that combines advanced deep plane facelift surgery, endoscopic facelift techniques, laser resurfacing, collagen-stimulating skin treatments, and personalized long-term maintenance. Serving patients throughout Tysons, Northern Virginia, and the greater Washington, DC metropolitan area, Dr. Maia developed the MAIA Method to address the growing demand for natural-looking facial rejuvenation that restores youthful contours while preserving facial expression, movement, and individuality.

At the center of the MAIA Method is Dr. Maia's expertise in preservation deep plane facelift surgery, an advanced technique designed to reposition deeper facial structures rather than simply tightening the skin. By addressing the underlying facial support system, a deep plane facelift and neck lift can improve jawline definition, restore midface contour, rejuvenate the neck, and create natural facelift results with long-lasting improvement. 

Dr. Maia is recognized for her contributions to facial plastic surgery and facial rejuvenation. She served as an associate editor and contributor to the textbook Neck Rejuvenation, an educational resource for plastic surgeons focused on modern surgical and non-surgical approaches to the neck, and she has authored more than 50 peer-reviewed articles, abstracts, and book chapters in the field of plastic surgery. Her work has received the Outstanding Paper Award from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), and she has been recognized as a Top Doctor in Northern Virginia by Northern Virginia Magazine. 

Unlike traditional facelift approaches that focus primarily on lifting tissue, the MAIA Method integrates surgical rejuvenation with laser resurfacing, collagen-stimulating treatments, skincare optimization, recovery protocols, and ongoing maintenance to create a comprehensive facial rejuvenation experience. Depending on each patient's goals and anatomy, the approach may incorporate deep plane facelift surgery, endoscopic facial rejuvenation techniques, upper and lower blepharoplasty, brow or temple lift, fat grafting and nanofat grafting, lip lift, buccal fat removal, Halo or CO2 laser resurfacing, Morpheus8 collagen remodeling, medical-grade skincare, chemical peels, LED light therapy, hyperbaric therapy, IV therapy and vitamin injections, full-face neuromodulator treatments, and facial balancing with injectables. 

For many patients, combining facial rejuvenation surgery with laser resurfacing allows both structural aging and skin-quality concerns to be addressed at the same time. This comprehensive approach helps improve skin texture, pigmentation, and fine lines while supporting natural-looking overall results. 

The MAIA Method also emphasizes personalized recovery protocols designed to support healing, reduce downtime, and optimize long-term outcomes through physician-directed postoperative care. As facial rejuvenation continues to evolve toward more natural, longevity-focused outcomes, the MAIA Method establishes a comprehensive framework for patients seeking advanced facial rejuvenation in Northern Virginia and the Washington, DC area. 

"The MAIA Method reflects the philosophy that exceptional facial rejuvenation requires more than surgery alone," says Dr. Maia. "Every patient receives a personalized treatment plan designed to optimize skin quality, support recovery, stimulate collagen production, and maintain results long after surgery."
