The modified composite-flap facelift with the FAME technique incorporates the orbicularis muscle, allowing safe release of the zygomatic cutaneous ligament and precise entry into the correct plane, while preserving all malar fat pads attached to the skin. This approach creates a stronger en-bloc composite flap that more effectively repositions the ptotic malar fat and reduces the upper nasolabial folds. Overall, it provides combined, balanced, and harmonious rejuvenation of the midface, cheek, lower face, and neck without requiring an additional midface lift procedure.
