Medical aesthetics for men: the guide

More and more men are coming in for medical aesthetics. Not to change their face, but to look as good as they feel. Here's what men ask us for most often, what actually works, and how we keep results masculine.

What brings men in

The reasons come up again and again: looking less tired at work, staying sharp in a field where image matters, or finally dealing with something that's bothered them for years. Most want a result that's discreet, quick, and doesn't require time off.

The 7 most common requests

1. Forehead and frown lines. Often the first treatment. Men have stronger muscles and sometimes need more units, but we keep the brow low and straight to avoid the "surprised" look. Forehead lines · Frown lines

2. A sharper jaw and chin. A firm filler placed along the jawline and at the chin adds structure and projection, without surgery. Jawline filler · Chin

3. Teeth clenching. Many men clench or grind without knowing it. Relaxing the masseters eases tension and headaches, and slims the lower face as a bonus. Teeth grinding

4. Hair loss. We start by understanding the cause, sometimes with bloodwork. PRP and PRF then stimulate the follicles with your own growth factors. Hair loss

5. Double chin. Even in slim men, genetics can blur the line between face and neck. Injectable lipolysis reduces that localized fat. Double chin

6. Dark circles and a tired look. A hollow under the eyes makes you look exhausted, even after a good night. A small, well-placed amount of filler makes a big difference. Dark circles

7. Excessive sweating. Underarm injections reduce sweating for several months. Very popular before summer or a wedding. Excessive sweating

For the body, EvolveX (offered in Boisbriand) contours and firms stubborn areas like love handles.

A man's face isn't treated like a woman's

This is the most important rule. A masculine face relies on a wide, straight jaw, a chin projected forward, and low, flat brows. A good injector reinforces those landmarks, and only those. A long pointed chin, overly high cheekbones or an arched brow feminize the features: that's exactly what we avoid. We explain it in detail, with a real case from our clinic, in this article on the jaw and chin.

Discreet, quick, no time off

Most treatments fit in a lunch break. Wrinkle injections take about 15 minutes, and small marks fade in under an hour. Filler can leave mild swelling for a few days. We answer the most common concerns in the 3 questions every man asks us.

Where to start?

With a free consultation. We assess your face at rest and in motion, tell you honestly what's worth doing (and what isn't), and build a plan at your pace. Often we start with a single treatment so you can see the result before going further.
