Many people associate injectables such as BOTOX® Cosmetic and dermal fillers with women, but a growing number of men are using these non-surgical options to regain their youthful appearance. Men and women alike develop facial lines and wrinkles, but men are increasingly worried about looking older.
Our dermatologist in New York offers a variety of injectables to reduce specific signs of aging including:
Frown Lines
Frown lines develop over time as you repeatedly form facial expressions and the underlying muscles contract. BOTOX® Cosmetic and XEOMIN®—nicknamed XEO-Men—relax the muscles under your skin to prevent them from contracting, thus softening your appearance and eliminating the illusion of an angry expression.
These injectables have the advantage of smoothing out the skin and muscles between your brows without appearing plastic or stiff. Our dermatologist will give you an injection between your brows, which will give you a younger, less angry appearance for 4-6 months.
“Smiles Lines” and Acne Scars
Bellafill® is another dermal filler we have that offers immediate, visible improvements for the nasolabial fold (“smile lines”) and moderate to severe acne scarring on the cheeks. This injectable is FDA-approved and is the only filler proven to last up to five years without the need for repeat treatments. Bellafill® promotes the production of collagen and regenerates the firm structure from your youth.
Many men struggle with acne scars and smile lines, Bellafill® offers the advantage of getting rid of these skin issues for years at a time. Some of our other injectables (such as Radiesse®, Juvéderm® and Belotero) offer similar benefits for a shorter amount of time.
Sunken Facial Areas
Men struggle just as much as women with under eye hollows and sunken cheeks. There are several of our dermal fillers that can help fill in depressed areas of your skin such as:
- Sculptra® Aesthetic
- Restylane®
- JUVÉDERM®
- Belotero Balance®
- Radiesse®
