Everything You Didn’t Know About Dermal Fillers for Men in Chicago

Dermal fillers for men are becoming increasingly popular as an option to combat the visible signs of aging. Men, young and old, are choosing the minimally-invasive and instantly effective treatment to improve their appearance without missing a beat, and for good reason. Our kind and experienced professionals can help you determine if this treatment is right for you.

 

What are Dermal Fillers?

 

Dermal fillers do exactly what their names suggest. A variety of treatments can be injected into areas of the face that have experienced a loss of volume or have developed wrinkles over time. They can help augment pitted areas caused by acne and scars, and they can plump thin lips.

 

Since the 1990s, dermal fillers have proved to be the preferred option for men, with an increase of 300% in treatments since 1997, according to one study. Unlike some other options, the specific approach for men allows customers to maintain a strong, masculine appearance while also maintaining a youthful look.

 

Dermal Fillers for Men: How They Work

 

While many treatments are available to men and women, the needs of men can differ greatly, and certain treatments can lead to undesired results. For example, men have more facial muscle mass and subcutaneous tissue, and their jawlines and forehead are more pronounced, and they have other features that are different from women. Our talented professionals consider these differences when implementing fillers for men, with site-specific injections boosting the effectiveness of the enhancement.

 

The Process

 

The treatment process is designed to be quick and easy, with the injections themselves usually taking just minutes. The appointment will depend on the number of areas the patient opts to treat, but the process is simple and requires little more than a consultation and the injections. Here are the basic steps:

  • Meet with the practitioner to discuss the best treatments to achieve the most desired results. Different areas may require different treatments, which you and the practitioner will determine together.
  • During the actual treatment, the filler is skillfully injected into your skin.
  • The results will almost immediately begin to take effect, restoring volume to the treatment area.

The Results

 

One primary reason dermal fillers are the choice for men (and women) is that you can expect to see results almost immediately and expect to see the full results within just days. The treatments are quick and easy, even for men with busy schedules.

 

Dermal fillers for men tend to provide amazing results, especially when performed by experts like those at aFresh® Med Spa & Plastic Surgery in Glenview. Contact our office today to set up a consultation and learn more information about this popular treatment.
