Facelift For Men and/or FAMI™

Facelift procedures made for men are a pretty effective way to lessen the undesirable effects of aging. Even though a male facelift surgery produces almost the same results as that of females, the men are the best indication for Non Surgical Facelift or stemcell facelift or FAMI™.

Candidates for men’s facelift

The procedure is especially made to reduce the effects of aging that is a common problem among men. These include sagging around the jawline, the neck, and the cheeks. However, one should be realistic on what they can expect from a facelift for men.

The facelift for men approach

The purposes of a male facelift are in general similar to those of a regular facelift for women. The general approach for achieving the results is similar as well, involving excess skin and facial fat removal, along with careful remodeling/shaping of distorted muscles as well as tissue under the surface of the face. However, a male facelift involves the application of certain techniques in order to optimize the appearance of the male patients.

Perhaps the main difference involves the incisions that are made during the surgical procedure. Since men tend to have shorter hair than women, it can be very difficult to cover the potential scars after a facelift. Often, this does not allow more flexibility regarding where the incisions are made. However, these incisions are always made at inconspicuous places as much as, in the area around the lower scalp beneath the hair, and along where the ear and the side of face meets i.e. the natural crease.

Benefits and complications of a male facelift

A successful male facelift can produce results that can make a man feel younger as well as more handsome than they’ve been in years specially on fatty faces. It is something other people will easily notice. However, just like all surgeries, male facelift procedures do have some risks. Although rare, there are risks such as visible scarring, limited facial paralysis, and nerve damage. And since men generally have more facial blood cells than women, there’s always a greater risk of one experiencing blood clotting after a facelift surgery. For all these reasons it is better to perform a FAMI™ technique when it is possible!

FAMI™ in London at the Cadogan!

The number of cosmetic surgery practiced by London practitioners has continued to grow over the years as more and more people wake up to the realization of the large number of benefits that they can gain from the procedures and the demand for the same continues to grow. From facelifts to breast implants and neck uplifts, the number of areas that are covered by the cosmetic surgeons in London has also continued to grow over the years. London has got a relatively higher abundance of cosmetic surgeons compared to most major cities around the world because of the extent of the development of the industry in the city. Not all of the cosmetic surgeons that operate in the city are equally skilled to carry out the procedures successfully as desired specially when FAMI™ technique is considered.
FAMI™ needs a deep knowledge in facial anatomy upgraded by training in fozen cadavers, a patented instrumentation, a large amount of experience.
At the Cadogan clinic Dr Roger Amar and Dr Olivier Amar are offering the FAMI™ procedure for rejuvenation or prevention of aging process in an anti-aging package.

Facelift Without Surgery or Non Surgical Facelift, FAMI™

When people begin to age, the skin in the face begins to sag and wrinkle because the face loses its bone support. The purpose of the endo-facelift without surgery is to improve the appearance of a face so that it does not show the effects of aging as obviously and also corrects the jowls and wrinkling of the facial skin.

Facelift without surgery now becomes a good alternative for surgery, and FAMI™ is surgery without a scalpel! How it works?

Aging occurs because the face loses its bone surfaces, muscle volume causing wrinkles and lines to form around the orbit and the mouth. Loss of volume also causes the face to sag and form jowls along the jaw line. The solution to this is to add the volume back into the face by fat grafting. But fat tranfer as it is usually done after a tough period of bruising and swelling is not working and ends up with lumps and hollowing. Why? Because the fat is a mature tissue that cannot be re-vascularized and the fat transfered without oxygen dies and is resorbed.

By injecting adipose stem cells into the muscles Dr Roger AMAR in the nineties created the FAMI™ procedure which gives a long lasting successful result.

Traditionally with lipofilling or lipostructure™, fat cells are injected below the skin to give a fuller appearance to the face. This causes a non natural reshaping without respect of the structural anatomy. Injecting the adipose stem cells into the muscles make the endo-facelift effect last longer. This because the stem cells get a constant oxygen supply from the muscles so they are able to last for a very long time and they maintain the look of fullness in the face. This is how the treatment has the ability to remain permanent.

The adipose stem cells are injected into the facial mimic muscles when you are under local anesthesia and sedation. There is 2 days recovery time needed and there may be some swelling for a few days because of the injections. Because it is a natural treatment, the side effects are minimal. Also, the endo-facelift will look natural and will not alter your general appearance because the structural anatomy has been restored in its normal volume according to the photos of the patient younger.

FAMI™versus Facial Fat Filling

Why normal aging causes facial wrinkles?

First in all women around forty bone surfaces are receiding and they get an atrophy of the facial muscles. The lost of support of the skin envelop make it to shrink and be marked by folds, groves and wrinkles.

Why facial fat filling is a bad technique?

The procedure, also known as lipofilling or fat transfer or lipostructure™ or Coleman technique, refers to the technique of extracting fat from various parts of the body and injecting it underneath the skin to fill up recessed areas. This will create a plumper appearance and eliminate dents, wrinkles and fine lines. Fat injection inserts fat under the skin, but under the skin the vascularization is scarce. Few extra capillaires can give suffisant oxygenation to the grafts to survive.
FAMI™ which stands for Facial Autografting Muscle Injection give to the adipose stem cells the garanty of oxygenation and survival.

Where are FAMI™applied to the face?

FAMI™ is usually applied on the upper, mid and lower face restoring the peri-orbital bone surfaces, the 30 mimic muscles, and the structural fat pads.

The ageing process

Why is the expression of a twenty years old face always smoother and more harmonious than the same face at forty?

In a young face, the gaze is soft and deep, the smile is serene, and the cheekbones are plump. With ageing, the gaze becomes hard, the eyes seem rounder (protruding eyes),

What inspired you to pioneer the FAMI™ technique?

After more than 20 years practicing my speciality of plastic and reconstructive surgery in France in the early nineties I was looking for the perfect filler to treat any negative side-effects resulting in facelifts and blepharoplasties. These operations, even in the best hands, can result in imperfections that need to be treated.

The perfect filler was found in autologous tissues, the fat transfer would have poor results; lumps, unpredictability in effect and how long it would last.

Natural Face Lift with FAMI™

”Face Lift” – two little words that fill many people with both hope and fear. The hope of looking and feeling decades younger – with all of the benefits physically and psychologically that it will undoubtedly bring, and the fear of an invasive, surgical procedure, and worst of all – not being happy with the result afterward.

Now add a third word – Natural – to that sentence. ”Natural Face Lift.” Sounds better already, doesn’t it!

Many people who are thinking of face lift surgery nowadays prefer to go for the more ‘natural look’. Gone are the days of the ‘wind tunnel’ appearance and a softer, natural look is the most popular procedure wanted. So it stands to reason, if you want a youthful yet natural look, you will need a natural face lift procedure.

Most people think that they are looking older because their skin is ‘sagging.’

The truth is that the cause of us aging is the loss of volume of the face. As we age the face loses muscle and bone density, therefore the skin starts to sag and we look older. The conventional face lift only lifts the muscles and surrounding skin, giving that ‘wind tunnel’ look. It only addresses the problem of sagging skin, and is never more than a short term solution, lasting between five and ten years.

After that, you will have undergo surgery again, this time lifting your already stretched skin. I doesn’t sound great, does it.

Now there is a revolutionary new concept available which can ‘turn back time’ and give our faces the volume and bloom of youth which is the secret to and maintaining a long lasting youthful look.

FAMI™ ( FACIAL AUTOGRAFT MUSCLE INJECTION ) is the brainchild of Dr. Roger Amar, an eminent cosmetic surgeon who is widely acclaimed to have discovered the secrets of ‘Eternal Youth’!

Dr. Amar discovered that the application of our own (autonomous) stem cells harvested from various areas of our own bodies (tummy, hips or buttocks) can be injected back into areas where there is a loss of volume (mainly the face) and which can regenerate our own stem cells to create new tissue and repair the cells. In layman’s terms, stem cells are the key of life, and you are literally having yours injected into your face to make you look decades younger!

The FAMI™ procedure gives a totaly natural effect and transforms the face back to its former youthful glory, with smooth skin and a glowing, naturally lifted appearance, and what’s more, the effect is totally permanent! Injectable fillers, such as Restylane are commonly used for short-term results while FAMI™ offers a permanent solution with no need for any re-touching. What can be more natural than using one’s own stem cells!

Another great thing about undergoing the FAMI™ procedure is there is no cutting or stitching and, most important – no scarring! The whole procedure is done under local anesthetic and completed within 2 hours and results are immediate. Down time is minimal (approx. 5 to 7 days) and you can be back at work within the week!

We are living in the age of the stem cells – the era of ”Nip and Tuck” is over. If you are considering a Face Lift, add the word Natural to that sentence, then log on to (your website here) for more information.
