With an ever-increasing rise in clients taking care of their skin and tweaking their way to more youthful skin, it’s no surprise that men want that glow too. As a result, we are seeing an increase in men booking into the clinic, and we welcome the shift away from the stigma surrounding men and self-care. The most popular treatments for men are botox, facials and masculinisation of the jaw.
WHAT IS BROTOX?
‘Brotox’ is a fun reference to the rise in botulinum toxin injections among men. As toxic masculinity becomes more of a thing of the past, our number of male clients has risen significantly, as they embrace their inner desire to get treatments. Whether it be to look younger, for a stronger jaw, or just to feel more confident, we are all for it here at Meredith Clinic.
Men tend to have stronger muscles than women, and their desired results differ too. This means that their treatments are somewhat different to women. We like to keep a balanced brow whilst achieving a natural look. We place botulinum toxin differently to achieve this result and generally will use double the number of units compared to a woman. Results usually remain for 3-4 months.
With the men’s skincare economy rapidly expanding, more and more men look after their skin. A regular facial is a perfect way to keep on top of your regime. Our skincare specialist, Kirsty, offers bespoke facials to our male client’s needs and has an array of treatments for all skin types.
IS IT RIGHT FOR ME?
Masculinising the jaw using dermal filler is very popular. Some would say a square jaw is more desirable than a triangular weaker jaw. Of course, this is just a view – good looks are subjective – but our male clients see excellent results in terms of how they themselves want to look. We have to use high quantities of dermal filler on the mandibular angle to create this chiselled appearance of a jaw, as much as 7-7mls of thick filler such as Juvederm volux and results can last up to 18 months.
Regardless, if you’re a man and you don’t want any of the previously mentioned treatments, or you do, but in a different manner, then that’s completely fine too. Our years of experience have taught us that every client is different, and our priority is to make you feel good in your own skin.
