How Botox & Filler Work for Men

We talked to Dr. Sanghe at Wave Skin Care about how medical aesthetic professionals can tailor treatments to suit men’s facial anatomy and aesthetic goals. Here’s what he said.

“As men age, they can experience the loss of facial volume, leading to sagging skin and less defined features. Dermal fillers, often made from hyaluronic acid, are injected into the targeted areas to add volume to areas that have lost fullness restoring a more youthful and well-defined look,” says Dr. Sanghe.

“Dermal fillers can also be strategically used to reshape the jawline for men, creating a stronger and more chiseled appearance. This procedure involves injecting fillers into specific areas to add volume and structure to create a more masculine jawline,” says Dr. Sanghe. “A well-defined jawline can contribute to balanced facial proportions, enhancing the overall aesthetics of the face.”

Dr. Sanghe is also seeing more non-surgical rhinoplasty treatments for men which has the power to transform a profile by adding projection to the tip, disguising nasal humps, and creating a straighter bridge. He feels that subtle improvements can make a surprizing difference.

Dr. Sanghe explains that a skilled medical professional can assess an individual’s facial structure and aesthetic goals before determining the most appropriate injection points and filler type. This personalized approach ensures the most natural-looking results that complement a man’s unique features. 

He adds, “No matter your gender, at Wave Skin Care, we believe that injectables are meant to elevate and refine your natural appearance, so you look and feel like the best version of yourself.”

Talk to a Qualified Professional

While dermal fillers can provide temporary enhancements to the face, the results are not permanent. Regular treatments are typically required to maintain the desired appearance. As with any cosmetic procedure, individuals should consult with qualified medical professionals to make informed decisions and to ensure both safety and satisfaction.
