Effective Facial Rejuvenation and Contouring with Nonsurgical Dermal Fillers.
Your skin naturally loses subcutaneous volume and elasticity as you age, which eventually results in folds and creases appearing on your skin. Not every man experiencing these effects necessarily needs (or wants) a surgical facelift procedure to regain a more youthful appearance. Injectable dermal fillers have long been used in aesthetics as an effective treatment option for men and women wishing to turn back time and reclaim a smoother, more polished appearance without surgery. With a few conservative injections in strategic areas, the signs of aging can be effectively reduced while maintaining a masculine contour for your face.
How do dermal fillers work?
Dermal fillers work by literally filling in areas where wrinkles and creases have formed to smooth them out. They can also be used to enhance certain features and provide a more masculine look for our male patients. Most fillers on the market contain hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in your body that diminishes as you age. Hyaluronic acid has the ability to hold much more than its own weight in water, which is why it’s so effective at adding both fullness and hydration when injected into the skin as a filler. Yet another great skin-boosting benefit of hyaluronic acid fillers is that they can also encourage your body’s natural collagen production, which can lead to more long-term results. At Atlanta Face & Body, we offer a variety of trusted filler brands to address your individual aesthetic concerns. We’ll discuss your goals at your private consultation and help guide you in choosing the right filler that best fits your needs.
Before & After: Injectable Fillers for Men
Which areas can be treated with fillers?
Fillers are so versatile that they can be used in several areas of your skin where improvement is desired. These often include:
- Eyebrows
- Tear troughs
- Lips
- Nasolabial folds
- “Marionette” lines
- Chin
- Cheeks
- Jawline
- Hands
Who is a candidate for fillers?
Men in generally good health who wish to restore lost volume as well as tackle pesky lines and wrinkles are generally good candidates for dermal filler injections. Fillers can be a great way to achieve facial rejuvenation for men of varying ages and skin types, but those who are displaying more advanced signs of aging and skin laxity may require more invasive treatment options. We’ll thoroughly discuss all your available options at your private consultation and be sure to tailor a treatment plan that best aligns with the outcome you wish to see.
Will I need any downtime after my filler injections?
Filler injections usually don’t require any recovery time, and most men resume their normal daily activities as soon as their treatment is done. We do recommend, however, that you avoid any strenuous physical activity for a couple days to help minimize any swelling and bruising, which are common side effects of injections. These effects are temporary and can most often be alleviated by applying ice periodically.
What results can I expect from dermal fillers?
Most men who elect filler injections notice improvement right away. But optimal results usually take a few days. Beforehand, you may experience some swelling, bruising, or redness at and around the injection site for the first few days. It’s important to understand that dermal fillers provide temporary cosmetic improvements and must be repeated periodically if you want to maintain your results. Depending on the type of filler, the location of injection, and your body’s own metabolic rate, fillers generally last anywhere from 6-12 months for most men.
