Tips From a Plastic Surgeon in South Jersey: The Top 2 Non-Surgical Facial Injections for Men
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons has reported that cosmetic procedures have been more in demand than ever among men, with non-surgical injectable treatments seeing a nearly 100% rise in popularity over the last decade. These non-invasive facial injections are particularly sought after because they can provide quick, safe, and effective results with virtually no downtime.
Here’s a look at two of today’s best facial injection options, BOTOX and Juvéderm, for men who want to achieve their aesthetic goals without undergoing plastic surgery.
BOTOX
BOTOX Cosmetic injections are easily one of the most popular non-surgical cosmetic treatments for reducing signs of aging in both men and women — and for good reason. Fast, effective, and nearly painless, BOTOX injections are derived from botulinum toxin type A and target wrinkles, creases, and fine lines in the forehead, between the eyebrows, around the eyes, and around the mouth.
BOTOX injections are safe for men of all skin types and ages. Results typically appear within two weeks after treatment and can last anywhere from three to twelve months, depending on the patient and certain lifestyle factors.
Juvéderm
While BOTOX uses a special neurotoxin to reduce wrinkles caused by facial muscle movement, Juvéderm injectable fillers use hyaluronic acid to lift and plump skin that has become saggy or wrinkled due to mid-face volume loss, which is a natural result of aging. Non-invasive, FDA-approved, and safe for most patients over the age of 21, Juvéderm fillers can correct moderate to severe wrinkles and volume loss in the cheeks, sides of the nose, and lips.
When used to target facial volume loss, Juvéderm fillers can show results for up to two years. Some patients may also use Juvéderm to reduce the appearance of acne scars.
