FAMI™, (FAT AUTO-GRAFT MUSCLE INJECTION) FOUNDER DR ROGER E AMAR
Since 1997, Dr. Roger AMAR’s FAMI™ technique has provided rare longevity and predictability in rejuvenation procedures through the use of purified adult stem cells, injected into the core of a patient’s muscle.
Standing for Fat Autograft Mucle Injection, the FAMI™ approach represents a dramatic departure from the classical concept of fat injection, which has been the common solution for facial rejuvenation efforts, offering little permanence or predictability.
In 2001 Dr Roger Amar extended his concepts to restoration of Bone surfaces, muscle and fat atrophy and create the new registered FAMI™ technique called Fresh Autologous Mesenchymal Integration.
Using an extensive knowledge of human anatomy and proprietary instruments designed specifically for the procedure, Dr. Amar has perfected the FAMI approach through the use of a patient’s own mesenchymal stem cells. Extracted from a patient and purified in a custom-designed centrifuge, these cells are then introduced back into the patient’s body through a deep, cellular graft.
Providing an organic alternative to traditional means of adding needed volume, FAMI™ avoids synthetic fillers in favor of harnessing the healing power of the human body to add volume in a safe, effective and permanent manner.
FAMI™ can be accomplished without the need of a scalpel, rejuvenating all the structures of the face: bone, muscles and skin without any visible scars.
The FAMI procedure (A non surgical, scar-less, non-incisional, non-invasive face lift) is performed at the Amar Clinic, on the Costa del Sol, Spain.
FAMI helps achieve a youthful, natural look without the invasive use of traditional surgical..
Dr. Roger Amar and Dr. Olivier Amar, will offer consultations each month in the United Kingdom. Next consultation with the 2 surgeons in LONDON Knightsbridge - SW3 1NQ - Phone 0800 612 7475 for reservation.
FAMI is not a classical fat injection. Rather is uses adults stem cells from fat deposits to encourage organic growth in a safe and predictable way. It is a new, non-invasive alternative to traditional face-lift surgery.
Dr. Amar has spent over a decade perfecting the FAMI technique through intensive research and real-world application of the FAMI technique, using mesenchymal “stem cells” to spur natural growth and volume.
Areas of proven growth include the facial muscle system, bone surfaces and edges and along the jaw line, tightening the complex network of nerves and vessles that make up the face.
INTUITION PRECEDES SCIENCE
Dr. Roger Amar began developing the injection of adult multi-potent mesenchymal stem cells in muscle envelops as early as 1991. After a frustrating decade spent performing traditional fat injections, Dr. Amar followed his intuition and decided to begin increasing the use of pre-adipocytes; better known as adult stem cells. These cells proved effective in encouraging natural growth and restoring bone surfaces and facial muscles.
The FAMI technique is also based on a deep understanding of the facial anatomy. While the procedure is reasonably simple for a patient, it can often prove complicated for a surgeon, as it requires a working knowledge of the facial structure, available only through hands-on training with naturally preserved models. For this reason, a qualified FAMI surgeon must have proven experience and training alongside Dr. Roger Amar, as well as a deep familiarity with the doctor’s custom-designed FAMI instruments. Without this experience, a surgeon cannot be trusted to be able to complete a successful FAMI procedure.
As science progresses and public opinion shifts towards an acceptance of the use of adult stem cells for aesthetic procedures, it is likely that we will witness an increase in the use of such cellular grafts for face lifts and blepharoplasties. For now, FAMI offers the most effective use of adult stem cells, providing exceptional results for over a decade.
At any age one can benefit from adult stem cells to repair trauma defects, birth deformities or an aged look.
"Quote from an anti aging expert"
"The FAMI™ technique is an innovative approach that helps restore some of the underlying defects that are responsible for the appearance of aging. It rejuvenates the face by implanting the patient's own adult mesenchymal stem cells; thus, restructuring the facial skeletal and subcutaneous structure to a more youthful state.
Dr. Roger Amar's contributions have been to develop a technique of mesenchymal tissue integration that permits lasting improvement. It is likely that this approach will prove to be one of the best techniques to improve the appearance of aging individuals.
"Many obliging surgeons are unwittingly contributing to post-blepharoplasty hollowness for hundreds of patients, FAMI can restore the normal condition."

WHAT IS BEAUTY?
Beauty is so simple and yet so varied. Understanding the basics of beauty is the foundation of FAMI and what we want to achieve. When treated with FAMI the result will be closer to the more youthful shape you had when you were younger.
FAMI (Fat Autograft Muscle Injection) is a unique and very specialized procedure, using your own adult stem cells to produce far more effective and natural results than traditional fat injections.
Developed by Dr. Roger Amar, the FAMI procedure has been copied by surgeons around the world, but rarely has it ever been successfully replicated – and then, only under the supervision and training of Dr. Amar.
Beauty is also symmetry, but each side of our face is not equal. We are usually different on the left and right side. Take a look in a hand held mirror, and you will see that each side of your face differs from the other. The closer you are to a symmetrical face, the theory holds, the closer you are to what most people find attractive.
"Plastic and reconstructive surgery can make wonderful results for civil victims of terrorism. To restore a human face the AMAR -FAMI technique appeared to be for 7 years a new valuable tool to repair the remaining bone-muscle and skin sequels."
