In honor of International Men’s Day, our experts at Le Rêve Med Spa would like to celebrate men by sharing with you some of the most popular cosmetic treatments amongst males today. Yes, you heard us right. Men love cosmetic treatments just as much as women. While women still head the forefront on cosmetic procedures, the number of men receiving cosmetic treatments is more than 20% and growing rapidly. Amongst men, two of the fan favorites are Brotox and SculpSure, both of which we proudly offer at Le Rêve Med Spa.
What is Brotox?
Brotox is a fun way of referring to Botox for men. Botox, a neuromodulator, is injected into target areas in the face to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.* The injectable blocks signals from the nerves to the muscle, essentially freezing and relaxing it.* This causes the fine lines and wrinkles in the target area to temporarily fade away.*
What can Brotox treat?
Brotox can treat many different target areas in the face. The most common problems that Botox treats are:
- Crow’s feet*
- The glabella (lines between the eyebrows)*
- Forehead lines*
How long is the procedure?
The procedure time itself is one of the most alluring aspects of Botox. It’s considered a “lunchtime cosmetic” because it can be injected in a matter of minutes. The treatment can be performed so quickly that you can have one done on your lunch break.
How long does it take to see results?
Result times vary from patient to patient, depending how their body responded to the treatment. It may take a few days or weeks for final results to appear.* Generally, Botox treatments last a few months before needing another injection.*
SculpSure
Now on to SculpSure, which is another very popular, non-invasive, non-surgical treatment, amongst women and men alike. SculpSure has been on the rise in recent years as a great alternative to plastic surgery for treating stubborn fat. Being non-invasive, SculpSure boasts little to no downtime or side effects.
What is SculpSure?
SculpSure, a body contouring treatment, is an FDA-cleared treatment that can get rid of stubborn fat that builds up in the body.* It is ideal for those who have tried diet and exercise but can’t seem to burn off subcutaneous fat cells in certain areas of the body.*
What areas does SculpSure treat?
Some of the most common treatment areas for men are:
- Flanks (love handles)*
- Midsection (muffin top)*
However, SculpSure can treat other areas that the provider deems applicable.
How does SculpSure work?
SculpSure works by turning light based energy into heat, blasting away stubborn fat cells.* The laser targets and heats up the fat cells, breaking them down.* Then, they are eventually eliminated naturally through the body’s lymphatic system.*
Who is an ideal candidate for SculpSure?
Ideally, men seeking SculpSure treatments are close to their goal weight and are having trouble losing those last few pockets of stubborn fat. Additionally, SculpSure cannot treat visceral fat (harder, solid-like fat that builds up around your organs), but it is very effective on subcutaneous fat cells.*
