Men in aesthetic medicine clinic
Aesthetic medicine love men and men love aesthetic medicine. We are glad, observing more and more men using aesthetic medicine procedure – every fifth patient in our Clinic is a man. In turn, men are satisfied with results of aesthetic procedures, always selected individually for every type of skin and therapeutic problem. At last, good appearance is our business card and investment for years.
Do we treat men skin and body the same way like women? Absolutely not. We must remember about differences of female and male skin and select procedures such a way to properly and efficiently meet patient’s needs. Men skin is greasing faster, what causes pores closing and pimples. If men spend a lot of time outdoor, then skin is facing sun rays, which causes photo-ageing, discolorations and wrinkles. Thicker men skin also dries faster and becomes irritated. Men also suffer from laugh lines, deep wrinkles, after acne scars. Extremely embarrassing can be hyperhidrosis of pits, hands or forehead, also tendency to set a jaw, what can cause to so called bruxism. Bruxism, beside aesthetic side effects, can cause headaches, problems with gums or even limited head movement.
What kind of procedures are mostly liked by our male patients?
LEONARDO A.L.T. laser epilation which means fast and painless hair removal. What distinguishes Leonardo A.L.T. Hyper Pulse is the high energy. Compared to other generation equipment, the efficiency of this technology is 5 times higher. Multiple passes are not needed because the energy delivered to the tissues will effectively damage and remove the hairs at first pass. With the cooling system, even such advanced parameters do not cause a risk of burns. Also, the time needed for hair removal becomes much shorter. Depending on a patient’s individual conditions, unwanted hair can be removed from the whole body in 18 to 25 minutes.
eCO2 fractional laser and/or laser peeling which means innovative and modern method of removal of scars and pigmentation. The procedure is almost painless when performed after application of an anaesthetic cream. It is also safe while performed by a professional. The laser beam heats up and, thus, injures pigment cells. The exposed areas gets darker after the treatment but the discoloration vanishes after a few days and the hitherto hyperpigmented skin gets lighter. The correction of scars is done by burning micro-punctures in skin. These injuries stimulate local production of collagen.
P.L.E.A.S.E. laser which means unique combination of lasertherapy with active substances applying into the deepest layers of skin. Unique SmartPorationTM technology, with pulsation „cuts” micropores in skin, stimulating it to new collagen fibres and elastin production. The area of tissue damaged during procedure is only 1 to 15 percent, what comes to very short recuperation time. Depending on indications, during procedure we apply hyaluronic acid, platelet rich plasma, mesotherapeutical coctails or vitamins, nourishing tissues in the dippers skin layers.
Botox which means wrinkles prophylaxis. The correction of facial wrinkles with botox is a procedure that is typically painless, requiring no anesthesia. The substance paralyses neuromuscular junctions, causing muscle relaxation and preventing contraction. As a result, skin that has been so treated does not wrinkle. Existing wrinkles (including deep ones, such as the one between the eyebrows) get smoothened. Also, the application of botox can eliminate wrinkles around eyes, on the forehead or on the nose. It is important to note that botox acts only on the muscles in which it has been injected. The remaining muscles function normally, leaving natural face expression.
Furrows fillres which means innovative filler Crystalis, based on calcium hydroxyapatite, used for skin compacting and for face contour profiling. Calcium hydroxyapatite is as biological material that occurs naturally in human bones and teeth. Because of the specific structure of Crystalis microspheres suspended in gel, results of the procedure become visible immediately, develop in time owing to natural production of collagen, and hold up for approximately one year. The results are very natural and the substance does not puff up in contact with water.
Platelet Rich Plasma for hair which means help for people suffer from fall out, rare, dry hair or alopecia areata. The doctor takes little amount of patient’s own blood and spinned in special device. Next, the doctor applies preparation using mesotherapy, which are head skin injections. The visible effect needs time – the hair removal cycle lasts appr. 3-4 months.
