Conversely, men are less concerned with reducing wrinkles and more with preserving their rugged good looks while eliminating signs of aging like under-eye hollows, facial folds, redness, and sagging. Men and women's skin also differs significantly (and not just because men can grow beards). It's primarily hormonal; testosterone makes a man's skin about 25% thicker, oilier, rougher, and sweatier than a woman's.
Men lose collagen at a similar rate to women, but their collagen density is higher. Male skin may look different from female skin, but it still responds well to the same treatments, and our dermatologists are well-versed in treating both sexes.
Maintaining healthy, youthful skin and protecting it from the damaging effects of the sun and the elements is impossible without a consistent skincare routine. Still, even the most diligent routine has a negligible effect on aging. Here are our top 5 recommended Facial cosmetic treatments for men who want to look
Younger without undergoing surgery:
Neuromodulators, or Brotox, as they are more commonly known:
Botulinum toxin type A, a neuromodulator, is injected under the skin to temporarily paralyze the facial muscles responsible for forehead and smile lines. When a man gets a neuromodulator injection, he usually only gets it in his forehead. He isn't looking for a completely wrinkle-free appearance but rather a reduction in the severity of the deeper, more prominent lines. The procedure takes only a few minutes, is only slightly painful (the needle pinches), and the effects will be noticeable within a week and last for up to six months.
Microdermabrasion is a non-invasive medical facial treatment that polishes the skin, removes dead skin cells, and stimulates the skin's regeneration, resulting in thicker, firmer new skin cells. Microdermabrasion is a low-risk procedure that deeply exfoliates the skin to reduce the appearance of scars, discoloration, fine lines, sun damage, blemishes, and enlarged pores and restore a youthful appearance. Typically, each treatment session lasts about 30 minutes, but you'll need to undergo several sessions to see results.
Skin-Altering Fillers:
As a result of volume loss, you may look deflated, listless, worn, tired, and old. Dermal fillers (hyperlink to dermal fillers page) are your best bet for restoring your youthful appearance. Eliminating creases and smoothing out wrinkles help restore fullness to the cheeks, temples, and under-eye area. Dermal fillers provide instant results and are extremely subtle and natural looking.
