The MAERCKS Microlyft
Services starting at $1000+ / no insurance

The MAERCKS Microlyft is designed to address the most common concern of our patient population while minimizing invasiveness to deliver a completely painless solution with no downtime or visible scars while maximizing results instead of sacrificing outcomes. Thus it opens doors to patients who would not consider a surgical facelift or really don’t qualify for one.
The zero recovery MAERCKS-Microlyft is the result of a decade of refinement of the MAERCKS-lift (Musculo-Aponeurotic Elevation and Retention with Check Kite Suspension), Dr Maercks innovative facelift technique that applies his concepts of histiocentricity. Using and adapting this technique to individual patient needs for over a decade has led to the development of a powerful procedure that is ultra focused on the primary concerns of patients.
Ancillary procedures can be performed simultaneously like the MAERCKS micro-eyelift, additional submental lifting, genioplasty and resurfacing.

When performing a facelift, a plastic surgeon should address the entire face, including areas surrounding the jowls, cheeks, and neck. A good facelift tightens the underlying layer of muscle (called the SMAS) and removes any excess skin from the area to tighten it up.
Dr. Maercks offers the following facelift procedures:
-SMAS FACELIFT
-MINI FACELIFT
-DIRECT SMAS FACELIFT
The MAERCKS Micro-Lyft addresses the appearance and skin quality from the clavicle up and cleans the neck, jawline and lower third of the face without the dissection and insult conventionally necessary. Most micro-lyfts are completed in one hour and can be performed completely awake without anesthesia or with sedation or anesthesia depending on patient preference.
If you’re interested in undergoing a facelift, you may be an excellent candidate. The first step is to schedule a consultation to see if it’s the right procedure for your needs.
In general, those who make good candidates for a facelift are those who:
Are non-smokers in good health
Have enough sagging/excess skin for the surgery to be beneficial
Are in their 40s to 70s
Have realistic expectations for the procedure
