Top 5 Non Surgical Cosmetic Procedures for Men

Top 5 Non Surgical Cosmetic Procedures for Men

While news and pop culture will have you believe that women are the primary recipients of plastic surgery, it’s a little-known fact that men are just as likely to opt for cosmetic plastic surgery in San treatments as women. Among men, invasive surgeries like liposuction, tummy tucks, and breast reduction surgery are common. Of course, non-surgical procedures are popular as well.

Interested in learning more about what non-surgical procedures men flock to most? Below, we go over the top 5 most popular non-surgical cosmetic procedures for men.

1. Chemical Peels

Like women, men want to have a smooth, fresh looking complexion on their face, neck, and chest. But like women, challenges like chronic acne, dry skin, rosacea, scarring, sun damage, and other problems can hinder results.

Enter, chemical peels.

Chemical peels or facial peels are the perfect pick-me-up for dull, marred skin. This noninvasive procedure is extremely popular among men of all ages, but those in their 40s and 50s tend to make up the majority of patients.

These men want to get rid of fine lines and wrinkles, large pores, scars from past acne, brown spots from the sun, and other damage. Chemical peels address all of these issues and more. Furthermore, when guys have smoother, more even skin on their face and neck, they’re able to get a closer shave, something that’s specifically desirable to many men.

2. Botox Injections

Every year, more than 3 million Botox injections are performed throughout the nation. Botulinum toxin — also known as Botox — was originally created to treat muscle spasms. Today, we commonly know it as the best tool to prevent and treat the appearance of wrinkles.

Botox is a safe and effective way to temporarily take care of moderate to severe fine lines and wrinkles on the face. In some patients, it is also used to smooth areas on the neck and chest.

Men are primarily drawn to Botox to reduce and eliminate forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and wrinkles on either side of the mouth and eyes. Many men are interested in eliminating facial lines that make them look angry, stressed, tired, or worried. Some men are interested in slimming or changing the shape of their jawline, a problem area that Botox can also treat.

With Botox, men have more self-confidence and self-esteem. This boost can help them have more success romantically, in the workplace, and in other areas of their lives.

3. Dermal Fillers

Like chemical peels, dermal fillers address common issues such as fine lines and wrinkles. But unlike a standard chemical peel, dermal fillers can also respond to more intense facial challenges, such as jawline jowls, drooping in the cheeks, and weak jawlines. These premature signs of aging are often problematic for men who want a strong, chiseled jawline and smooth, firm cheeks without sagging and pouches.

Dermal fillers take many forms. Juvederm, Restylane, and Perlane for example, are soft Hyaluronic Acids that can help fill in deep scars and wrinkles. They can also alter the position and shape of the lips and cheeks where necessary. Like Juvederm, Restylane, and Perlane, Belotero is another Hyaluronic Acid, but it’s thinner, so it’s better at treating smaller fine lines and wrinkles that the former three cannot treat.

All four of these fillers have results that last around nine months. Other fillers like Radiesse and Sculptra exist as well, serving other specific purposes, depending on the patient’s desires. Some fillers can last as long as 12 months.

Often, men who desire the benefits of dermal fillers will combine this procedure with Botox for the ideal result. Your doctor can help you decide the best fillers and complementary procedures for your particular trouble areas and ultimate skin goals.

4. Laser Hair Removal

While women often opt for laser hair removal to get rid of unwanted hair on the face, arms, underarms, bikini area, and legs, men usually use laser hair removal to target hair on the back and chest. Some may opt for the procedure to take care of genital area hair or excess hair on the shoulders and stomach as well.

Regardless of where you’d like to remove unwanted hair on your body, your doctor can help you choose the best laser hair removal solution for you and your skin type. For instance, some men with highly pigmented and uneven skin tone should only use specific types of hair removal strategies. That’s because if your skin has a lot of melanin, certain lasers may alter your pigmentation long-term or even permanently. Rest assured, there are options for all skin types.

5. Nonsurgical Fat Reduction

Even if you’ve worked out hard and dieted long-term to get rid of excess fat, you may still be challenged by problem areas and extra pounds that don’t seem to want to budge. Often, for men, these trouble areas are in the upper body — particularly, in the abdomen and flanks.

Invasive procedures like tummy tucks and liposuction can be highly effective at reducing fat in these areas. But sometimes, a lighter touch is needed. This is where treatments like truSculpt iD come in. truSculpt iD is a revolutionary treatment that sculpts the body from the outside, in. truSculpt iD targets fat by using heat to therapeutically destroy fat cells at the surface of the skin.

Many men who are not ideal candidates for contouring treatments such as tummy tucks and liposuction are perfect candidates for nonsurgical fat reduction. Furthermore, many men require only one treatment to effectively zap excess fat and remove it for good.

FAQs About Non-Surgical Cosmetic Treatments

What is a non-surgical cosmetic procedure?

A non-surgical cosmetic procedure is a treatment that enhances or alters your appearance without the need for surgery. These procedures typically involve minimal downtime and include options like injectables (Botox, dermal fillers), chemical peels, laser treatments, and non-invasive body contouring. They’re designed to improve skin texture, reduce wrinkles, and enhance facial or body contours without the risks and recovery associated with surgery.

What is the most effective nonsurgical facelift?

The most effective nonsurgical facelift is often achieved with dermal fillers. This minimally invasive procedure restores lost volume, smooths wrinkles, and lifts sagging areas, offering a rejuvenated, youthful appearance without cosmetic surgery.

What is Laser Skin Resurfacing?

Laser skin resurfacing is one of the most popular non-invasive cosmetic treatments that use laser technology to improve skin texture tone, and reduce wrinkles, treat acne scars and sun damage. It can also help with mild sagging skin by stimulating collagen production. This treatment promotes smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin with minimal downtime.

What is the best non-surgical treatment for younger-looking skin?

The best non-surgical treatment for younger-looking skin depends on your skin type and concerns, but popular options include Botox, dermal fillers, and laser skin resurfacing. Botox smooths out fine lines and wrinkles, while fillers restore lost volume. Laser skin resurfacing improves texture and tone. For overall rejuvenation, a combination of treatments is often recommended.

Ready to Change Yourself for the Better?

Unfortunately, even today, there remains a lot of stigma around male plastic surgery. There is a predominant public perception that only women get cosmetic procedures performed. Furthermore, this stigma says that males who are interested in body contouring or wrinkle and scar elimination are excessively vain.

The truth is that a growing number of men are becoming comfortable with plastic surgery — both invasive and noninvasive, surgical and nonsurgical. For these men, cosmetic procedures are about boosting confidence and improving wellbeing and quality of life.

Like women, men should feel comfortable investing in the improvement of their skin and bodies. There’s nothing that says only women can care about the way they look.

Dr. Sieber is attentive, responsive, and well trained. I had seen him for Botox and filler and he had done both without any pain or bruising and more importantly the results were fabulous. He has met with me on time at each appointment. He communicates what to expect, made sure I was comfortable throughout the procedure, checked on my healing every day post procedure. He couldn’t be more delightful not more talented. I had seen other plastic surgeons for in office treatments over the past decade and Dr. Sieber is at the top of the list in terms of delivering the desired outcome and high quality care.*
