When you understand that the structure of our face is made up of many layers and that aging does not begin on the surface of the skin but deep underneath, then you will also understand that restoring someone’s original facial shape is possible using facelift principles.
The challenge is this: when people hear the word “facelift”, they immediately think of knives and surgery.
But at Marissa, our uniqueness is that we can achieve facelift-like results without any blades or surgery.
We apply the principles of a facelift by lifting the SMAS muscles, but we do it non-surgically.
When the SMAS muscles that hold your facial structure are lifted back to their original position, the entire face rises and becomes naturally lifted again.
Ligaments are supposed to hold the face upward.
But with age, they become stiff, shortened, and begin pulling the tissue downward.
➡️ This is the main cause of facial sagging and an aged appearance.
These gel-like toxins can gather under the eyes, around the lips, along the chin, and throughout the face.
This buildup creates uneven contours, causing puffiness or a swollen look.
Septa are small partitions that support the collagen cushions.
When they become rigid, they pull the cushions out of their natural position.
➡️ This results in a face that looks wider, uneven, or oddly shaped.
With Red Light Therapy, we can:
✔️ Soften hardened ligaments so they become elastic again
✔️ Correct rigid septa that are pulling the face in the wrong direction
✔️ Loosen and clear the gel-like toxin buildup within the cushion layer
✔️ Restore the original shape of the collagen cushions, bringing back your youthful facial structure
When we combine:
🔹 Non-surgical SMAS lifting
🔹 Face Mapping (to read the exact sagging pattern)
🔹 Red Light Therapy (to restore the cushions and internal support)
🔹 Correction of ligaments and septa
…the result is the restoration of your original face, not a change to your identity.
You won’t look “modified.”
You will look like your younger, natural self — refreshed and lifted.
