Non-Invasive Cosmetic Procedures – It’s A Man’s World

For years, aesthetics was largely considered an all-female arena, with the occasional male daring to brave the lions, under the assurance that their chosen treatment was deemed acceptable by their red-blooded peers. Those days are long gone. The number of men seeking out treatments to delay the advances of ageing and tweak their physiques has risen over the last decade. Whilst many do not wish to totally eradicate their rugged facial creases, a gentle blurring of the edges makes aesthetic procedures a powerful ally. As we wave goodbye to the stigma of only vain and sensitive men undergoing non-invasive cosmetic procedures, North West Aesthetics welcomes the new wave of intrepid clients ready to discover the exciting world of aesthetics.   

 

Anti-Wrinkle Injections 

 

Anti-Wrinkle Injections are the most popular treatment for men, globally. Softened frown lines, reduced forehead wrinkles and the prevention of crow’s feet put a question mark around your real age, without the obvious indication of treatment. These injections block chemical signals from the nerves, temporarily relaxing the facial muscles that cause wrinkles. Tiny amounts of the substance is used, resulting in a natural look, whether the face is moving or at rest. 

In a 2019 survey undertaken in the US, market and consumer data provider, Statista, found that 96% of clients were satisfied with their anti-wrinkle treatment and would repeat the procedure. With those odds, it’s easy to see why the treatment is favoured by the female and male markets alike.  

 

Dermal Fillers

 

Containing high amounts of hyaluronic acid, Dermal Fillers not only smooth away fine lines and wrinkles but also hydrate the skin. Hyaluronic acid can hold up to 1000 times its own weight in water, which helps to plump up the skin, whilst moisturising it from the inside out. 

The Male Sculpt and Refresh Juvéderm® Package at North West Aesthetics is the ultimate treatment for skin renewal and facial definition. Juvéderm® Volift is injected into the deep dermis layer of the skin to smooth away more advanced wrinkles. Volux restores lost facial volume and diminishes the appearance of sagging skin.

 

Hair Loss

 

Hair loss is more common in men than women and can occur for a number of reasons, including hereditary factors and underlying medical issues. For some men, thinning hair can be a source of embarrassment, particularly when it hits at an early age. 

North West Aesthetics offers a number of hair loss treatments, such as Minoxidil 5% and Propecia, but the team specialise in Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). This life-changing treatment moves individual hair follicles from the skin to a part of the body where the hair is thinning or absent. The procedure restores scalp fullness and promotes hair regrowth, without the unnatural ‘hair plug’ look associated with outdated transplant techniques. 

 

Sclerotherapy

 

Thread veins, also known as spider veins, are visible damaged blood vessels that sit beneath the surface of the skin. Usually red or purple in colour, they are commonly found on the legs and across the nose and cheeks. Although harmless, people often seek to remove them for cosmetic reasons. 

Sclerotherapy is the practice of injecting a medicinal substance directly into the blood vessel, causing it to swell. This forces the blood to reroute through healthier veins, resulting in thread vein shrinkage and a significant reduction in their appearance.
