Once an industry dominated by women, more and more men are choosing to have cosmetic work done, so much so that the number of men receiving cosmetic procedures has boomed, increasing by 325% in the past two decades. In recent years, men have shown that popular cosmetic injectables are not exclusively for women but are beneficial in improving male aesthetics and self-esteem. Below are a few of the most popular injectables men have been flocking to.
Hyperhidrosis Treatments
When we think of injectables, we typically think of injections that reduce fine lines and wrinkles or fill in sinking and aging skin, but these aren’t the only useful applications for injectables. The same type of cosmetic injections that target these concerns are also incredibly useful in reducing migraine headaches by reducing muscle tension in the temples and even in reducing sweating. More men are finding themselves seeking this treatment as a solution for excessive perspiration on the hands and underarms but can also help in cases with overly sensitive underarms that develop allergic reactions to deodorants.
Eye Area Injections
Aging changes many things in the body, one notable organ being the skin. As aging progresses, you may start to notice a loss of volume around the eye area. Tear troughs and crow’s feet wrinkles can be a bother and give away our true age, but a cosmetic injection using dermal fillers and injections of muscle relaxants around the eye or eyelid areas may be exactly what you need.
Jawline Contouring
One of the most popular injectables for men isn’t a filler or wrinkle treatment at all. A double chin is a common concern among male patients. Since the condition is often genetic, losing weight usually doesn’t help enough. Kybella® is the first FDA approved injectable that reduces excess fat underneath the chin. Made from deoxycholic acid, a chemical that dissolves fat cells, Kybella® injections will gradually metabolize fat cells, resulting in a leaner chin over time. Kybella® is the perfect option for those wishing to strengthen their jawline without undergoing surgery.
