Botox for Men (Brotox)
Botox ® and dermal fillers are becoming more common for men in New York City. Over time, the repeated contraction of facial muscles—which can result from years of smiling, frowning, or furrowing brows—may form facial lines, particularly around the eyes, mouth, between the eyebrows, and on the forehead. Dr. Douglas Steinbrech specializes in administering Botox ® and dermal fillers tailored to men in New York City. The emergence of these facial lines can give the impression of fatigue and aging.
BOTOX ® Cosmetic treatments offer a twofold benefit: not only can they prevent the further deepening of these lines during natural facial expressions, but they can also effectively erase these aging indicators, leaving you with a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
It’s worth noting that Botox ® ranks as the most sought-after cosmetic procedure in the United States, signifying its widespread popularity among individuals seeking aesthetic services.
Benefits of Botox ® in NYC
Botox ® Cosmetic is a swift, safe, and highly effective solution for addressing facial lines and wrinkles, with results that can last for up to six months. This non-invasive procedure comes with the advantage of requiring no downtime or surgical intervention, making it a convenient choice.
Moreover, Botox® typically involves minimal to no discomfort during the process. Botox® is proficient at reducing or eliminating existing facial lines and serves as a preventive measure by hindering the formation of new ones. Its versatility extends to smoothing out facial lines that have already taken shape, offering a comprehensive approach to enhancing your appearance.
Botox® injections can refresh your appearance by smoothing out lines around the eyes, between the eyebrows, on the forehead, around the mouth, and on the neck.
The Best Doctor for Men’s Botox® in NYC
While Botox® doesn’t involve surgery, selecting the best doctor for men’s Botox® treatments in NYC is crucial. Inexperienced doctors might inadvertently give you an unnatural appearance or overfill your face.
Dr. Steinbrech, a highly accomplished physician renowned for his expertise in male cosmetic procedures, has effectively administered Botox® Cosmetic filler to thousands of patients. His approach begins with a thorough consultation, where he attentively discusses each patient’s objectives and desired outcomes. Subsequently, precise injections are tailored to address specific areas of concern, ensuring that every patient achieves a satisfying result of a more youthful and smoother facial appearance.
How Does Botox® Work?
Botox® is made from a highly purified and concentrated protein (botulinum toxin). When administered to problem areas by a trained physician, the toxin helps to relax facial muscles. Repeated muscle contractions over the years cause wrinkles. By alleviating these contractions, Botox® helps to eliminate wrinkles and fine lines and prevent new flaws from forming.
What Else Can Botox® Be Used For?
Botox® goes beyond cosmetics; it helps with various medical issues, too. It’s effective for migraine relief, reduces excessive sweating when injected in specific areas, and eases eye and neck muscle spasms. Botox® serves a dual role, addressing medical conditions alongside its cosmetic use, improving patients’ lives.
Dermal Fillers for Men in NYC
Restylane
Since 1996, Restylane® has been a trusted choice among dermatologists and plastic surgeons worldwide for safe and effective use. Specifically tailored for male patients, Restylane is skillfully applied to create smoother skin, enhance lip volume, and redefine facial features. Common treatment areas include the brow lines and the folds extending from the nose’s base to the mouth’s corners. What sets Restylane apart is its exceptional capacity to retain moisture, delivering longer-lasting results that persist within the skin for several months.
What Are the Benefits of Restylane for Men?
Restylane is a remarkably safe and effective option for various aesthetic procedures. This innovative dermal filler provides long-lasting results, with durations up to twice that of collagen-based alternatives. A key advantage is that Restylane is composed of a natural substance naturally present in the human body. This minimizes the risk of allergic reactions. Restylane is non-animal-based and biocompatible, making it a reliable choice for individuals seeking cosmetic enhancements with reduced potential for adverse reactions.
How Does Restylane Work?
Restylane is a transparent synthetic gel carefully crafted from hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance found throughout the body. This versatile treatment operates through a two-fold mechanism: When injected into the mid- to deep dermis (the middle layer of the skin), the NASHA™ gel enhances volume and plumpness, effectively smoothing facial wrinkles and folds. As it integrates into the dermal tissue, it can attract and bind with water molecules, ensuring the longevity of the enhanced volume.
The reassuring aspect of Restylane is its minimal risk of causing allergic reactions. Due to its non-animal-based and fully biocompatible composition, there is no need for prior allergy testing. The most frequently reported side effects are short-lived, involving temporary redness and swelling at the injection site, which generally subside within two to three days.
How To Prepare for Restylane
Before undergoing Restylane treatments, male patients should refrain from using aspirin, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, St. John’s Wort, or high doses of vitamin E. These substances can potentially heighten the risk of bruising or bleeding during the procedure. Additionally, for individuals with a history of facial cold sores, it’s important to be aware that needle punctures could trigger their recurrence.
Radiesse for Men in NYC
Radiesse is a synthetic injectable filler for male patients in NYC designed to diminish wrinkles, creases, fine lines, and scars by bolstering the body’s inherent collagen production. This innovative solution consists of microspheres suspended within a biocompatible gel constructed from minerals akin to those present in our bones. Consequently, Radiesse poses minimal risk of provoking allergic reactions, making it an excellent option for male cosmetics.
Where Can You Use Radiesse?
Radiesse is a versatile filler that effectively enhances lips, smooths smile lines, fills scars, and rejuvenates mouth corners. It’s a comprehensive solution for facial improvement. Whether you want plumper lips, fewer smile lines, or improved scar texture, Radiesse is a safe and practical choice for your aesthetic needs.
Typically, these treatments are swift, taking about 15 minutes and necessitating only a local anesthetic for pain relief. Side effects like swelling or bruising are usually minimal and dissipate within a few days. You’ll notice immediate results after the injection, which can persist for several months to years. Plus, you have the flexibility to repeat the procedure as desired.
Moreover, it’s important to note that Radiesse has gained FDA approval for addressing lipoatrophy, which is the loss of fat beneath the skin, in patients living with HIV.
Sculptra for Men in NYC
Sculptra® effectively addresses lipoatrophy, a condition involving the loss of fat beneath the skin. It works by injecting Sculptra® into the deep dermis layer, resulting in an enhanced appearance of sunken cheeks, hollow eyes, and the reduction of indentations and wrinkles. The primary component of Sculptra® is an alpha hydroxy acid with a well-established 20-year history of use in surgical products like dissolvable sutures. Remarkably, the positive outcomes of Sculptra® can endure for up to two years for male patients.
Juvederm
Juvederm, a hyaluronic acid-based cosmetic treatment, serves as an effective filler for rejuvenating facial features and combating signs of aging. The Juvederm family offers a range of products, each designed to address specific concerns. For instance, Juvederm Voluma XC amplifies cheek volume by working beneath the skin’s surface. Juvederm fillers are ideal for mitigating the effects of losing skin elasticity and smoothing wrinkles and lines closest to the nose and mouth, commonly referred to by doctors as smile lines. Meanwhile, Juvederm serves as a non-surgical treatment for enhancing the lips.
These Juvederm products are precisely tailored to help individuals tackle various facial aging indicators. Each product within the Juvederm line possesses distinct bonding and hyaluronic acid concentrations, making them suitable for particular concerns and application depths. The Juvederm fillers share a common feature in their smooth, gel-like consistency. This filler can be used for our Male Model Makeover®.
Which Juvederm Is Right for You?
Juvederm offers specialized solutions for various facial areas: Juvederm Voluma XC enhances cheeks, Juvederm Ultra Plus XC and Juvederm Vollure XC target the areas around the nose and mouth, and Juvederm Ultra and Volbella XC are ideal for lip enhancements.
We offer Juvederm for men in NYC.
Juvederm Voluma XC
Juvederm Voluma is the first FDA-approved filler featuring lidocaine, designed to counteract age-related volume changes in the cheeks. Voluma is a hyaluronic acid (HA) filler composed of natural skin sugars unlike many midface treatments. Voluma’s use of cross-linked HA through the Vycross process makes it distinctive, which enhances its lifting capacity significantly. This capacity not only excels in restoring cheek and midface volume but also extends its longevity, lasting nearly twice as long as other fillers—supported by studies demonstrating its potential to endure up to 2 years. Additionally, as an HA filler, Voluma offers the advantage of being moldable, enabling it to be shaped into the desired contour post-injection.
Juvederm Voluma is best used in the cheeks and midface region.
Juvederm Volbella XC
Juvederm Volbella XC is a clear gel made with hyaluronic acid, a natural skin component. It includes a bit of lidocaine for comfort during injection. This filler gives immediate results that last. It’s designed for the delicate skin around the lips and provides a natural look due to its thinner consistency. Volbella adds volume to the lips and smooths fine lines around the mouth. It works by placing a long-lasting gel in the lip tissue, defining the lip line, and reducing the smoker’s lines. Additionally, it attracts moisture to create a well-hydrated look.
Juvederm Volbella is best used for slight lip plumping, defining lip lines, and smoothing out vertical lines surrounding the lips, which are sometimes called smoker’s lines.
Juvederm Vollure XC
JUVÉDERM VOLLURE™ XC is an injectable hyaluronic acid gel used to correct moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, like nasolabial folds, in adults aged 21 and older. It offers a durable solution for addressing distinct lines around the mouth.
The Vycross technology employed in Juvederm Vollure enhances stability, reduces swelling, and extends its duration. It has gained FDA approval for improving wrinkles and lines, with results lasting for up to 18 months. Even at the 18-month mark, about 68% of study participants remained highly satisfied with their outcomes. It’s technically named Juvederm Vollure XC, with the “XC” indicating the inclusion of numbing agents in the syringe to ensure a comfortable treatment experience.
Juvederm Vollure XC is best used for the skin creases extending from the nose, known medically as nasolabial folds.
Dysport
Dysport is a product designed to reduce wrinkles through facial injections, targeting specific areas to create smoother skin. It operates similarly to BOTOX Cosmetic, using botulinum toxin Type A to paralyze the muscles responsible for wrinkles temporarily. Dysport is primarily used to enhance the appearance of the face and lips, effectively minimizing fine lines and more pronounced wrinkles, often resulting from aging, environmental damage, dietary habits, and repetitive facial expressions. Unlike Botox, Dysport is injected deeper into the skin.
Dysport is particularly effective for treating the forehead’s frown lines that develop between the eyebrows. Individuals with mild to moderate forehead wrinkles are suitable candidates for Dysport injections. The procedure involves a single injection administered into five sites above and between the eyebrows. Dysport’s results typically become noticeable within 24 to 48 hours and last approximately four to five months. Dysport is best used for men with frown lines and forehead lines.
