Women aren’t the only ones benefiting from today’s non-invasive cosmetic treatments for a younger, healthier appearance. Men make up the fastest growing demographic in the cosmetic industry. Remarkably, the number of cosmetic procedures performed among men has increased over 325% over the last decade.
If you’re not already part of the 325% increase, find out why you’re missing out on this growing trend.
Why More Men Are Turning To Non-Invasive Treatments
Most of our experts agree that the workplace has become increasingly more competitive as more and more qualified, experienced professionals are forced to compete for the same position. Today’s millennials are given a significant advantage over their competition if those individuals are considered attractive. Similarly, younger professionals are considered to be more intelligent and are more likely to be hired over an older candidate who has comparable skills to their younger looking competition.
How is a Non-Invasive Treatment Different From an Invasive Treatment?
When it comes to cosmetic procedures, everything can be broken down into two main categories – Invasive and non-Invasive. Invasive procedures, such as liposuction, rhinoplasty and facelifts require recovery time from a procedure before a patient is able to return to normal activities.
Working men prefer non-invasive cosmetic procedures for good reason.
RESULTS. These minimally invasive procedures, such as Botox, laser hair removal, microdermabrasion and CoolSculpting allow patients to see visible results almost immediately.
PRICE. Non-invasive procedures are far less expensive than cosmetic surgeries that require surgeons, operating rooms, and anesthesiologists.
RECOVERY. Most non-invasive procedures have recovery times that are minimal if not non-existent. Patients are able to return to regular activities immediately after their appointment without having to take weeks of downtime and recovery.
PROCEDURE DURATION
Non-invasive procedures allow patients to have cosmetic treatments done in less than an hour depending on the procedure, meaning treatments can often be performed during a simple lunch break.
RESULTS
Most non-invasive procedures capitalize on the body’s natural abilities with gradual, natural looking results allowing patients to improve their appearance without the immediate, dramatic results of a surgical procedure.
Top Non-Invasive Cosmetic Procedures For Men
-
- Botox – A typically quick, 10 minute procedure that allows patients to return to normal activities immediately after treatment. The effects from Botox typically last between 4 to 6 months in most patients and is primarily used to reduce the signs of aging by relaxing tense facial muscles that cause wrinkles, fine lines and crow’s feet.
- Laser hair removal – Men frustrated with hair on their necks, shoulders, backs or between the brows are looking for a simple way to reduce problem hair that keeps coming back after shaving. For more and more men, the solution is laser hair removal.
- Microdermabrasion – Works by removing the outermost layer of dead skin cells, unveiling the layer of fresh skin cells that lie beneath. This process works to stimulate the body’s natural collagen production and cellular rejuvenation.
- Chemical peels – Similar to Microdermabrasion, a chemical peel is performed in the same function, but uses a different method, using FDA cleared chemical solutions to gently remove the top layer of skin cells. After treatment, the skin may appear red, looking similar to a mild sunburn, that should fade within the first 24 hours.
- Dermal fillers – Acting as volumizers, dermal fillers fill in wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars or pits by using a Hyaluronic Acid to plump up folds and smooth out furrowed brows. Procedures typically require about 30 minutes and results are expected to last between 6 to 12 months.
