Non surgical treatment for men

Increase in males seeking cosmetic procedures, says plastic surgeon

Cosmetic adjustments have become more accessible to men in recent years as they strive to perfect their appearance. Currently, male procedures account for 10% of all cosmetic enhancements that take place in the UK. Common male surgeries include Rhinoplasty and Gynaecomastia, but there are options available for those seeking non surgical treatment.


Chief among these are line and wrinkle smoothing procedures. This treatment is common amongst men because it is both easy and effective. Lines and wrinkles can develop as a result of the effects from the sun, smoking and your diet, and they are also an inevitable side-effect of the ageing process. A successful treatment can leave the skin looking fresher and completely rejuvenated.


The process is simple and methods can range from Botox injections to facial peels. Botox treatment takes only 15 minutes. A needle is injected to a part of the face containing lines and wrinkles and the Botox works to relax the muscles so that they no longer crease.


At The Private Clinic, you will be treated by a registered, experienced and qualified practitioner, using the highest quality of approved products. Only tried and tested, fully approved medical products, produced worldwide are used and all of the injectable treatments are carried out by cosmetic doctors or nurse prescribers, who have undergone extensive additional training to qualify in prescribing Botox.


In the case of facial peels, dead skin cells are removed and skin tone and texture is significantly improved.


The effects of Botox can last for several months, though with skin peels courses may last for several weeks.


Elsewhere, another popular non surgical procedure is laser hair removal. Laser treatment offers a more permanent hair removal solution and is a great alternative to waxing or shaving. The procedure is as accessible to men as it is amongst women. Popular areas from which hair is removed include the back, chest and lower leg.


Laser hair removal works by destroying the base of the hair follicle so that it falls out naturally. Sessions can last between 15 minutes and an hour depending on the area of the body that needs treatment, and a  typical programme can last between four and six weeks.


The majority of non-surgical treatments can provide a more natural method of improving one’s appearance without enduring surgery and long and painful recovery periods.
