Skin treatments for men

Wrinkle-softening injection and dermal filler treatments are very commonly booked for our male clients. When we meet you for your consultation, and assess your skin, we’ll have a better idea of which treatment will be most suitable to help you achieve the look you want.

Administering botulinum toxin to men differs from treating women, typically requiring larger amounts to achieve desired results. Men often have wider, higher and potentially heavier brow areas compared to women. Notably, a flatter brow is considered more acceptable as a male trait, contrasting with the female expectation of arched brows. This nuanced approach accounts for the anatomical and aesthetic differences between male and female facial structures.

Jawline contouring, also known as masculinising of the jawline involves the use of carefully placed soft tissue filler to create a wider, more square jaw. Additionally, strategic placement of chin filler to encourage a square shape can help an injector sculpt an overall lower face look that is both balanced and well-defined. It can also lessen jowls.

With botulinum toxin, the procedure involves a remarkably small and gentle needles for the injection. Most individuals report minimal or no discomfort during the process, describing only a slight pinch or mild stinging sensation that quickly subsides.

While receiving dermal filler may involve slight discomfort, we prioritise using the safest techniques to ensure minimal pain. Topical anaesthetic cream can be used to numb the skin prior to injection but we recognise that pain is subjective and strive to create a safe, comfortable space with ample reassurance. Rest assured, the treatment is likely to be over before you know it, and the results will undoubtedly be worth it.

Wrinkle-softening injections effectively target and reduce crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines between the eyebrows. Dermal fillers are primarily applied to the mid and lower face, diminishing lines from the nose to the mouth and mouth to chin. Additionally, fillers can provide lifting effects akin to a surgical facelift, add volume to thinning skin, and reinstate definition to the chin and jawline. This dual approach addresses various signs of aging for a comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

You should notice the first visible effects of your wrinkle softening injections approximately 2-3 days after the treatment. Maximum results will be obvious 12-14 days later. Your new look should last for 3-4 months on average before requiring a top-up treatment at our clinic to maintain your fresh look.

Results from a single treatment of dermal filler is instantly visible and typically last around 6 to 9 months. Dermal fillers provide a subtle, natural-looking outcome without affecting facial expression, allowing you to subtly manage your appearance as it evolves over time.
