Understanding Male Aesthetics
As a man seeking aesthetic treatments, it’s essential to recognize that your skin, facial structure, and goals differ from those of women. Here are key considerations:
Skin Thickness and Texture:
Men typically have thicker skin with more collagen and elastin. This affects treatment outcomes. Dermal fillers, anti-wrinkle injections and thread lifts need adjustments to suit male skin.
Facial Anatomy:
Men often desire sharper jawlines, defined chins, and sculpted as opposed to rounded cheekbones. Carefully selected and placement of dermal fillers along with thread lifts can enhance these features without feminising the face.
Natural Results:
Men prefer subtle enhancements. Our specialty lies in the art of subtlety; therefore, we are diligent in avoiding overfilling or creating exaggerated changes and dedicated to producing natural-looking results.
Popular Treatments for Men
-
We use anti-wrinkle (Botulinum Toxin) injections, also known as Botox, to target and reduce the appearance of dynamic wrinkles, such as frown lines and forehead creases. We do so with precision to avoid frozen expressions, thereby preserving natural facial movements. Aside from aesthetic purposes, they are also popular with men to alleviate symptoms related to medical conditions, including reducing excessive sweating in hyperhidrosis, minimising migraines, and addressing teeth grinding, among other benefits.

Dermal fillers are commonly used to restore volume, correct hollow areas, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. They are also utilised to enhance facial features, creating stronger, more masculine jawlines and chins. The more popular areas of treatment are, non-surgical rhinoplasty to straighten noses, chin and jawline enhancement, and tired eye rejuvenation to combat hollowing resulting in a naturally brighter, well-rested appearance. In our male patients, the goal is to achieve natural and subtle enhancements while maintaining masculine facial characteristics.
-
Thread lifts are a non-surgical facelift alternative employed to lift sagging skin while preserving masculine features and is a popular treatment for men wanting to treat sagging jowls and nasolabial lines (creases that run from the sides of your nose to the corners of your mouth). They can also be performed in under one hour, making it an excellent option for busy lifestyles.
-
Skin boosters such as hyaluronic acid injections and advanced skincare treatments are beneficial for improving skin texture, hydration, and overall skin quality in male patients. The emphasis is on creating a tailored skincare regimen that addresses specific skin concerns while considering differences in skin thickness and oil production compared to female patients.

All our treatments are generally well tolerated, typically involving minimal discomfort and downtime.
We use fine needles to administer anti-wrinkle injections. While some patients may experience a slight pinch or stinging sensation during the procedure, we employ various techniques to reduce any potential discomfort.
Dermal filler and Skin boosters contain local anaesthetic, a numbing agent to optimise patient comfort.
Profhilio is injected over five specific points( Bio Aesthetic Points (BAP)) on each side of your face to maximise the diffusion with the fewest number of injections points, therefore promoting greater patient comfort.
When performing thread lifts, we administer local anaesthetics. However, some patients choose to forgo anaesthetic and remain comfortable during the procedure.
