CURRICULUM VITAE Romulo Mene

Dr. Rômulo
Mêne is a Doctor of Medicine who graduated from the Federal University of
Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ), Brazil in 1976 and did his post graduation as a General
Surgeon at UFRJ. Dr Mêne is a specialist in Plastic Reconstructive and Aesthetic
Surgery by the Brazilian Society of Plastic Surgery, and he is a founder,
and full member of the Brazilian Society of Medical and Laser Surgery (SBLMC)
and is currently the International Director of the SBLMC.
Dr Mêne has dedicated the past 20 years to the study of the elasticity system
of human skin and has developed a nutritional system that utilizes nutritional
supplements (protein in powder form) which is administered orally, this
is extracted from the skin of young Brazilian bulls, and recovers the elasticity
of human skin. At his private clinic in Ipanema beach, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
he has performed more that 55,000 chemical peelings, and he constantly receives
visiting doctors from all over the World, who are interested in learning
more about the revitalization of the skin by these nutritional and chemical
peeling methods. Dr. Mêne is one of the pioneers in the use of CO2 lasers
and Erbium-YAG (Derma K®) lasers, having developed histological studies
to explain the operation of this modern laser system.
Dr. Mêne is probably one of the World’s leading specialists in the use of
combined techniques used in facial rejuvenation. To do this Dr. Mêne combines
nutritional programs, chemical peeling of different depths (depending on
each patient’s needs) and maintenance treatments of revitalized skin. Laser
surgery is only used for the treatment of severely aged skin, (laser skin
re-surfacing) or for eye contour treatment (Blepharoplasty) and periorbital
wrinkles.
For the past 4 years, Dr. Mêne has been dedicating his time, to the investigation
of implants using Hydrogel (Polyacrylamide Gel), with his colleagues in
Russia and Ukraine, together they have had several scientific works published
about the use of Hydrogel in the fields of reconstructive and Aesthetic
plastic surgery. Dr. Mêne has taken part in the organization and direction
of more that 120 practical and theoretical courses on skin nutrition, glycolic
peelings, TCA peelings, Laser skin resurfacing, Hydrogel and other human
skin revitalizing techniques. For the past 12 years he has actively participated
in the most important plastic surgery and dermatological congresses in Brazil,
Italy, France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Australia, China, Singapore, Malaysia,
Thailand, Spain, Switzerland, Netherlands, England, Portugal, USA, Argentina,
Venezuela, Chile, Peru, Columbia, Indonesia, Morocco, Russia, Poland, Ukraine
and the Middle Eastern countries.
In all of these counties hundreds of medical professionals adhere to Dr.
Mêne’s techniques about the rejuvenation of the human skin. Over the past
2 years Dr. Mêne has introduced, on a world wide basis, the most recent
investigations relating to the possibility of stimulating, and renewing,
the skin by the topical application of NATURAL ACTIVE LIPIDS, which act
on the fibroblast and a specific group of cytokines. Probably this is the
most advanced type of treatment to recover the structure of human skin without
the use of exfoliating substances and the other aggressive methods of treatment
commonly used today. Together with this combination of natural active lipids,
it is possible to join different active molecules capable of relaxing the
orbicular muscles, and provoke a reduction in the number of periorbicular
wrinkles by provoking an excessive contraction of the orbicular muscle around
the eyes, (the peptide called ESUP-A is synthesized in a laboratory which
acts on the neuromuscular plate mechanisms similar to the action of botulinic
toxin, but having the added advantage of being a topically used product)
Another possibility of the association of a group of topically applied substances,
is the reduction of baggy eyes.
Dr. Mêne has developed a professional method which can reduce the depth
of medium and small wrinkles, which is called YELLOW PEEL, which causes
a dramatic renewal of the skin in 72 hours, without causing necrosis of
the skin, and having a minimal amount of trauma on the skin. This method
is currently used, with success, in over 30 countries around the world on
patients having all types of different skin colors. Dr Rômulo Mêne latest
discovery is the possibility to increase the size of the lips without the
use of any injectable substance, using a system called YELLOW PEEL BALM,
which cause a stimulation of the tissues which form the lips, and this guarantees
an increase of30% - 50% in only 24 hours of stimulation, and can be maintained
over the long term with the daily use of a lipstick which contain the natural
active lipids, vitamins E,A and C, Photoprotection agents and specific moisturizes
for the lips.
