There has been a wide range of innovations in aesthetic procedures over the past few decades, ensuring we can all look young and rejuvenated. But these injectables and dermal fillers aren’t solely for women; they are for men as well. Maintain your youthful, masculine appearance with the help of Botox and dermal filler treatments at Dr. Andrews Plastic Surgery.
What Are the Injections For Male Patients At Dr. Andrews Plastic Surgery?
We offer a variety of injections and dermal fillers for men at Dr. Andrews Plastic Surgery. We provide two neuromodulators, Botox and Dysport, that use botulinum toxin type A to block the nerve signals from the brain to the muscles of the face, smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles like crow’s feet, frown lines, horizontal forehead lines, and more.
We also have a variety of hyaluronic-acid based fillers, including Juvederm and Restylane. Dermal fillers work by using hyaluronic acid, a naturally occurring substance in the body, to gently plump the skin. They can used to fill in deeper lines like nasolabial folds (smile lines) and marionette lines, address volume loss, and build contour in areas of the face like the jawline, chin, and cheeks to create a more masculine appearance.
While neuromodulator and dermal filler injections are performed similarly for male and female patients, there are a few key differences. Dr. Andrews carefully considers the different aesthetic goals that men and women have, male facial anatomy, the thickness of male skin compared to female skin, and their stronger facial muscles to ensure safe aesthetic treatments that highlight masculine features and a refreshed, youthful appearance. Stronger muscles and thicker skin may require higher doses of Botox and fillers to achieve optimal results.
Who is a Good Candidate For Injections For Men?
Injectables and fillers are suitable for most male patients, but there are several factors you’ll want to consider before receiving these cosmetic procedures, including the following:
- Are physically healthy
- A nonsmoker
- Have realistic expectations
- Are committed to maintaining good skin health
- Experiencing volume loss
- Experiencing lines, wrinkles, or deep wrinkles around the face
Each patient’s desired outcome and aesthetic goals will be carefully considered to build a customized treatment plan, whether you wish to achieve a more defined jawline, restore volume in the cheeks, fill in deep wrinkles, and more. Patients can expect natural-looking results that compliment their unique facial contours.
The Injections For Men Procedure
The procedure for injectables for men is relatively simple. Topical anesthetic can be applied to the targeted areas, but most patients tolerate any discomfort well without the need for anesthetic.
The treatment consists of Dr. Andrews injecting Botox, Dysport, or a specific dermal filler into the treatment area to address your aesthetic concerns. The whole treatment session should not take more than 30 minutes. And with very little downtime, you can return to most of your normal activities right away.

After getting injectable neuromodulators or dermal fillers, you can go back to your normal routine immediately. You will want to avoid touching or massaging your face so the treatment works effectively and doesn’t spread. You’ll also want to avoid strenuous activities for a few days after treatment and lying on the treatment area.
With Botox and Dysport, you will start to see results in a week or more, and with dermal fillers, you will see some results immediately, while the final results can take a few weeks to show up as the fillers settle. With a refreshed and more chiseled appearance, many men feel more confident in social and professional settings after their treatment. Neuromodulators typically last 3-4 months and fillers will last from 6 months to 2 years, depending on the specific product used. Additional injections can be scheduled regularly to maintain your results.
