Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

Payments

45

Compared to peers

Moderate

Dr. Luis Macias received $1,909 across 45 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 71% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Luis Macias

Sourced directly from Dr. Luis Macias's social posts and replies.

What is a lip flip, who is an ideal candidate, and how long does it last?
A lip flip involves injecting Botox into the upper lip to enhance the visible pink portion, creating a fuller appearance. Ideal candidates are typically those considering lip filler. The effects generally last about 4-6 weeks.
How are silicone implants inserted at Aesthetic MdR?
Our practice uses the Keller Funnel method for inserting silicone implants.
What is Dr. Macias's perspective on lip filler trends and achieving natural results?
Dr. Macias advises that not all lip inspiration or trends are advisable. The practice focuses on achieving natural-looking results, and patients should discuss their goals to avoid an 'overfilled' appearance.
What are the different breast implant placement techniques, and which does Dr. Macias prefer?
There's a common misconception that implants must be placed entirely above or fully under the muscle; however, nuanced techniques exist. While dual plane (half under the muscle) is common, Dr. Macias prefers the subfascial technique for its more natural look. Not everyone is a candidate for subfascial placement, so a consultation is necessary to determine suitability.
