It's my experience during the last 15 years
that guys are increasingly getting Botox and fillers to appear younger,
especially those guys that are into fitness, esthetic physiques and Instagram.
Nowadays nearly 20 percent of my "esthetic" patients are men,
an increase from previous years.
The most common treated zones are the frown, forehead and eyes,
where botox is used to diminish the typical expression lines.
A series of injections of botulinum toxin, works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles
that cause wrinkles by blocking the nerve synapses from firing.
Most patients get Botox injections every 4 to 6 months.
Most of them are getting this minimally invasive procedure, combined with injectables or fillers
like hyaluronic acid, which can reduce wrinkles as well as add volume to areas like the cheekbones or temples.
So why are Botox and filler injections on the uptick?
The short answer: social media.
It's not exactly news that the rise of Instagram and Facebook
has put more pressure on us to improve our appearances.
Given the relatively low cost of the procedure, it's nowadays a quick fix for a lot of guys
who spot perceived flaws in their social media photos.
Instead of putting a picture of yourself up there from a few years ago,
why not have this procedure done?
But at the same time, even though more men may be choosing to go under the needle,
they're not any more open to talking about it.
As stigmatized as cosmetic surgery was for women 15 years ago,
it's even more so still nowadays from men.
This is particularly true for straight men, who might consider
the desire to improve their appearance "feminine."
The existence of the term "Brotox" is arguably a sign
that the procedure is still not entirely normalized for men.
While Botox is widely considered to be safe in small doses, it is still advised to use
a board-certified doctor or a dermatologist, or someone who has significant experience
with injectables, instead of having a nurse administer an injectable at a private spa.
Seek out an injector who has experience with men, since the exact placement of injections,
and amounts of Botox and filler injected, are a little different for men and women.
A good practitioner can make the difference between a face that doesn't look "done" but
looks natural and beautiful, and has good eye for harmony, symmetry and balance.
Techniques differ between every practitioner.
We all have our favorite ways to inject.
Experience and technique go hand in hand.
Someone experienced usually has great technique.
To conclude I'll give you the best advice on looking good and aging well:
You can't change your genetics, but you can stay out of the sun, and do not smoke.
