Mens Treatments

Anti-wrinkle injections have long been the domain of women. However, with changing social norms, men are also wanting to look younger and less tired looking.  It has been adopted so well by men that the term “Brotox” is now well understood.  Anti-wrinkle injections are able to help you to soften wrinkles around the eyes, forehead and brow.

Men are generally afraid cosmetic procedures will make them look feminine. That’s why they shy away from injectable fillers. However, there are special techniques available that allow men to retain their masculine features. Fillers in truth are one of the most versatile and effective anti-ageing tools. We use them in a conventional way for women, but for men, a lesser amount is the key to a natural appearance. More than ever men use fillers to create a more lifted look and to fill in deep grooves and hollows. Treatment around the eyes is growing in popularity to remedy dark circles or that sunken tired look.

Let’s be honest, there are many men out there that care about their skin and the way they look.  However, not all men are ready or willing to go down the path of anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers.

For these men, we like to be able to offer them an alternative way to keep their skin looking youthful. The treatments below, rely on stimulating  synthesis of collagen within the skin.  This is done by creating micro-injuries within the skin which then heal using the bodies own healing mechanisms. As a result of this healing process more collagen is produced, adding youthful volume to the skin. This extra volume also tends to iron out fine lines and wrinkles.

The FACTOR4 treatment relies on highly concentrated and super-rich conditioned serum – blood plasma, containing 4 times more growth factors than any existing brand PRP.  How can it do this? FACTOR4 is autologous (it comes from your own body cells) and depending on the patient’s needs, it is used to treat wrinkles and crepiness in areas of the face, neck, décolletage, back of hands, dark circles, stretch marks, pores and scars.

Nu Era skin tightening and rejuvenation uses Radio Frequency Technology to deliver heat energy into the dermis. This heat energy acts in two ways. Firstly it causes skin tightening by causing the collagen fibres within the skin to shrink. Secondly, the heat energy causes the synthesis of new collagen to help volumise the skin.  It is a non-invasive treatment and feels like a gentle facial massage with a smooth warm rock.

Laser Genesis uses micro pulses of 1064nm laser energy to penetrate the skin deeply. This energy causes micro-injuries to the skin in a similar to micro-needling.  These micro-injuries heal and produce collagen, which thickens the skin and helps to iron out fine lines and wrinkles.  Additionally, Laser Genesis can help to even out skin tone and diminish the appearance of skin pigmentation.

Almost all men, at least to some degree, suffer from male pattern baldness as they get older.  By the age of 50, half of men suffer from some male pattern baldness.
