Dr. Vincenzo Giuliano

Dr. Giuliano is a pioneer in diagnostic imaging and recently has adapted the use of high resolution hand held ultrasound for esthetic procedures, unique in the industry.  He is the author of nearly 40 scientific publications  manuscripts, ebooks, U.S. Patents and collaborated  on a research paper related to plastic surgery.

Since  2014, Dr. Giuliano has been involved with esthetics and wellness as Medical Director of Maki Med Spa & Wellness . He has certified training with Allergan, Galderma, PDO Max , Hans Biomedical products

Dr. Giuliano has introduced the use of diagnostic ultrasound, novel to esthetic practice.  This involves the specialized use of a hand held small ultrasound probe to look beneath the skin surface into the subcutaneous tissue and dermis, down into the deeper layers, including muscle and bone. Ultrasound is a non-invasive imaging technology that uses sound waves to visualize body tissues.  Some applications include the following.

• Evaluate volume and placement of dermal fillers.

• Dissolve unwanted dermal fillers with enzyme using ultrasound guidance, if needed.

• Evaluate complications of esthetic procedures, such as hematoma and infection/abscess.

• Evaluate placement of ends of PDO threads in various locations.

• Evaluate formation of new tissue formation related to collagen and fibrous connection.

• Evaluate neovascularity and healthy tissue perfusion.

Dr. Giuliano also uses PLEX-R, the newest technique of non-surgical blepharoplasty for treatment of hooded upper eyelids and lower eyelid laxity, an alternative to surgical treatment.  It also can be used to revise prior surgical blepharoplasty and/or unwanted scars.

One of the more exciting new technologies is the PDO thread lift procedure.  Dr. Giuliano currently uses FDA-approved MINT PDO threads to achieve minimally-invasive alternative to surgical midface and jowl lifts using bioresorbable barbed sutures, provided potential long term cosmetic results for up to 2 years.  Other applications include eyebrow and nose lifts.  Non-surgical rhinoplasties can be performed using a combination of fillers and PDO threads in patients either not suitable candidates for surgery or desiring non-surgical options.  Lifting procedures can be prepped or augmented using one or more techniques, such as:  mesotherapy and RF microneedling; cryotherapy treatments to firm and slim;  and Deoxycholic acid dissolution of large fat deposits.

Dr. Giuliano also incorporates plasma-rich plasma (RPR) and STEM cell therapies into microneedling techniques for facial rejuvenation and improving scars.  Finally, wellness is an important therapeutic goal not only in achieving beauty from the inside out, but also to improve overall health and wellness.  Nutritional IV therapies are provided at the center, targeted to boost the immune system, and also to provide micronutrient support and improve energy levels.
