If you were to start listing the differences between men and women, we could check in with you two days from now and you probably still wouldn t be done. For all our differences, there are some core commonalities that we don t really talk about like insecurities about our appearance.
Cosmetic treatments are extremely common among women, but among men they re often still perceived as taboo. That s why you should know the number of guys receiving aesthetic treatments is growing exponentially even if it s not a hot topic of conversation in the office or at the bar. Here are the facts and a couple gorgeous details.
Change that s more than skin deep
Looking vibrant and youthful has always been just as important to men as it is to women. Confidence in your appearance permeates everything you do whether it s navigating the dating scene or the corporate world. And if you re job-hunting in a down economy, confidence is more crucial than ever.
What men want
Though your cosmetic treatment options are just as wide-ranging as women s, there are certain procedures men commonly seek out treatments for acne and acne scarring, hair and tattoo removal, and Botox Cosmetic for facial rejuvenation. Here s a quick overview of the treatments your friends and colleagues are getting (whether they talk about it or not):
Acne treatments
Breakthrough Isolaz laser technology delivers fast, effective, proven results when it comes to eliminating acne on your face and back results you ll notice in just a couple days. It s FDA-approved and uniquely able to treat all different skin types.
Men are also turning to Isolaz s laser-comrade-in-arms Fraxel to transform acne scars into smoother, rejuvenated skin all with minimal to no downtime involved.
Hair removal and tattoo removal
Just like women, men have hair in places they d rather not and tattoos that seemed like a good idea at the time, but now not so much.
Laser hair removal can be performed on all areas of the body, with men having it performed most often their back, shoulders, upper arms, chest, abdomen, buttocks and feet. It s very important to find a physician who uses a variety of lasers and can customize your treatment to match your skin color and type. Best of all, laser hair removal discomfort is generally well-tolerated (and it definitely beats waxing).
Have a tattoo you want to turn into a memory? Lasers are the tattoo removal procedure of choice and are minimally invasive, low risk and effective. Just like laser hair removal, you want to find a physician who uses multiple types of lasers, since each tattoo-removal laser has a slightly different wavelength to remove specific colors of ink.
Hollywood-actor good looks it s not about the genes
It s about Botox Cosmetic, a treatment more and more men are turning to for relaxed, youthful looks with little risk and no downtime. especially for the forehead, frown area and crow s feet. Though men and women can expect similarly stellar results, men s facial muscles are different than women s. To achieve the most natural, long-lasting, best results with BOTOX and all cosmetic procedures it s a good idea to find a physician who regularly treats men.
Congratulations, guys looking younger is now an equal opportunity.
