According to multiple studies and surveys, women undergo more surgical and non-surgical procedures than men. However, there has been an enormous increase in the number of male individuals seeking fast and quick results in the form of cosmetic treatments without having to undergo surgery.
As men’s attitudes toward aesthetic treatments continue to change, it seems likely that the growth of men opting for nonsurgical interventions won’t stop.
Besides, men are one of the fastest-growing patient segments in the aesthetic field and represent a significant opportunity for practice development.
In fact, since the year 2000, the total of nonsurgical men cosmetic procedures has gone up to 65%. Most of them demand a natural and young look but with noticeable and quick results.
We have classified these treatments by popularity and these are the top 4 nonsurgical cosmetic procedures for men:
1. Botulinum Toxin
Botulinum toxin (BoNT-A) is a neurotoxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum which causes temporary muscle weakness. It is important to clarify that there are various anatomical differences when performing an aesthetic consultation with men. These differences impact the amount of product needed to achieve the desired effects because men tend to have a larger muscle mass.
The primary goal for men who decide to get Botulinum toxin is to treat the wrinkles on the forehead and between the eyebrows, as well as the commonly “crow’s feet” in search of an overall younger look or to reduce some signs of aging.
2. Laser Hair Removal
For those who would like to get rid of unwanted hair in some areas such as the chest, armpits, legs, or back, laser hair removal can be a good solution. Laser Hair Removal works by delivering pulses of intense light which produce damage to the underlying hair follicle. This procedure requires several sessions to be fully effective.
3. Non-Surgical Fat Reduction (Lipofirm)
An alternative to surgical fat reduction procedures such as liposuction is becoming more popular among men. Non-surgical fat reduction procedures work by breaking down fat cells in certain areas to reduce the size of subcutaneous fat pockets. Its minimal recovery time and excellent results are one of the many reasons people are choosing this kind of procedure over the liposuction treatment.
4. Photo Rejuvenation (CO2 Laser)
Taking care of our skin through habits such as a well–skincare routine, sun protection creams, and water consumption are essential, but sometimes are not enough for keeping healthy and glowing skin. Skin treatments for men such as Photo rejuvenation are used to improve the quality of their skin.
Photo rejuvenation treatment involves high-intensity pulsed light to treat skin discolouration and photoaging. This is done by stimulating skin regeneration and the production of collagen, which provides elasticity and structure to our dermis. A fast treatment that achieves significant improvements in areas such as the face, arms, and hands.
Nonsurgical techniques are becoming more mainstream as technology advances; however, it is crucial to do your research before undergoing treatment. Be sure to book your consultation with us today to get the best advice for your specific needs.
