If we look at the statistics, a report claims that 5.2 million men in the UK are looking to have dermal fillers (or at least are expressing interest). The same data also shows around a 70% rise in men seeking aesthetic treatments since 2021.
This just goes to show that more and more men care about the way they look and age.
For many, it is now a normal part of self-care, be it feeling well, or presenting oneself well both personally and professionally.
Therefore, if you are considering stepping into this world, Bodyvie in Richmond offers a wide range of doctor-led treatment options to help you achieve natural and great-looking results, safely.
Aesthetic Treatments For Men Available At Bodyvie
As men (or any person, for that matter) age, various lifestyle factors such as sun exposure, pollution, stress, weight fluctuations, and repeated facial expressions can take their toll. Over time, the skin loses elasticity, fine lines deepen, pigmentation may appear, facial volume can diminish, and hair can begin to thin.
And remember, aesthetic treatments help address these concerns in non-surgical or minimally invasive ways, often with little to no downtime. It is not about trying to look like someone else. It is about looking like a more rested and well-cared-for version of yourself.
1. Injectables
- Anti-wrinkle injections: Botox helps relax certain facial muscles to smooth out wrinkles, especially lines around eyes (crow’s feet), forehead, or between brows. This treatment is great to reduce the appearance of expression lines.
- Dermal fillers: Used to restore volume, typically in the cheeks, jawline, and the under-eye area. It is also used to sculpt certain facial features (like the jaw) more sharply for a more youthful and masculine appearance.
- Profhilo: Even though Profhilo is considered to be more of a bio-remodeling injectable, it is still a product that is meticulously injected into certain parts of the face to help with overall skin quality and hydration, improving firmness and texture more diffusely.
- Thread lift: These are threads that are placed under the skin to help lift and support sagging areas (like the jawline or cheeks) without needing full surgery to get that “lifted” and refreshed look.
- Non-surgical nose job: This procedure uses fillers to reshape or correct minor irregularities in the nose. It is much cheaper than surgery, and of course, also less invasive, and comes with less downtime.
2. Skin, Face And Laser Treatments
Our clinic also offers several advanced treatments to rejuvenate and improve your overall skin health, including IPL Photofacial, microneedling, and microdermabrasion treatments.
For example, our IPL Photofacial uses Intense Pulsed Light technology to target redness, broken capillaries, and pigmentation issues, helping to refresh and even out the complexion.
For those with visible veins on the face or body, laser thread vein removal also helps effectively restore a clearer look to the skin. Meanwhile, medical microdermabrasion provides deep mechanical exfoliation to remove dull surface cells, leaving the skin smoother, brighter, and more refined.
3. Hair Treatments
Hair loss treatments: Of course, a huge concern among men is thinning hair,as approximately 6.5 million men in the UK experience hair loss, with androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness) being the most common cause. This hereditary condition can begin as early as the late teens or early twenties, affecting up to 85% of men by age 50! The progression of male pattern baldness typically starts with a receding hairline and thinning at the crown, gradually leading to more extensive hair loss. By age 35, approximately 40% of men in the UK show noticeable hair loss, and this figure increases to 65% by age 60. And contrary to popular belief, a surgical hair transplant is not the only way to restore your scalp and hair health. Our hair loss treatment uses unique growth factors and proteins derived from your own blood, which are re-injected to rejuvenate the scalp and stimulate hair growth in men experiencing balding. It is known as PRP and patient satisfaction around the globe is high. According to the numbers, multiple studies reported that 84% of patients experienced positive outcomes following PRP treatment for hair loss.
Laser hair removal (for men): On the other side of the spectrum, is men who want to remove unwanted hair on the face, back, or chest. For instance, many UK clinics have seen a 33% annual increase in men booking laser hair removal appointments. At Bodyvie, we use the highly advanced Nd:Yag and Alexandrite Laser to safely remove hair on all types of skin (I-VI on the Fitzpatrick scale). Not to mention, studies have shown that laser hair removal can achieve an average hair reduction exceeding 85% after 6 to 8 sessions, especially in areas with more coarse hair. Therefore, if you are seeking a slightly more permanent solution other than shaving or waxing,laser hair removal is potentially the way.
