MEN’S BODY TREATMENTS
In recent times, men are taking more and more care of their external appearance. In addition to the general concern for image in our modern society, there is a desire to offer a healthy, youthful and beautiful appearance, associated with self-esteem and social success. Aesthetic medicine offers various body treatments for men that, although usually very similar to those performed on women, must always be adapted to the particular anatomy and physiology of men.
Undoubtedly one of the first and most used treatments for male body aesthetics is laser hair removal, which allows to remove hair from any part of the body in a very simple and definitive way.
However, nowadays more and more men go a step further to offer the best version of themselves and opt for treatments that get rid of fat accumulated in certain areas, combat flaccidity and cellulite, eradicate overweight and sculpt your body.
Calcium hydroxyapatite
Calcium hydroxyapatite is a type of biocompatible filler composed of calcium hydroxyapatite microparticles suspended in an aqueous gel. When injected into the body, they stimulate the creation of new collagen, making the skin look younger and more natural and filling in areas that have lost volume. The results are absolutely natural and, since a substance is injected that is compatible with the body, there is practically no risk of allergic reactions or side effects. Over time, the injected substances degrade and metabolize naturally. The results last up to 2 years. Although its most common use is as a facial treatment to redefine and rejuvenate facial features, enhancing, for example, the chin and chin to give them more masculine features, calcium hydroxyapatite is also used as a filler for other parts of the body, such as the pectorals or buttocks.
Tensile threads
The tensor threads are one of the most demanded treatments by men, because they can effectively combat sagging and prevent or minimize the loss of firmness in the skin. They can be used alone or combined with other treatments. It is a type of lifting that produces almost immediate effects. The tensor threads, also called “magic threads”, were used for years as suture material in various surgeries, and later it was discovered that they are also highly effective in combating sagging areas such as the abdomen, arms or neck. When inserting these tensor threads into the skin, we generate a fibrosis around them that produces a natural self-lifting effect, since natural collagen threads are spontaneously generated in the skin. The threads conduct the collagen to the areas where we are interested in combating flaccidity.
After the treatment, the threads are naturally reabsorbed by the body in a short period of time. It is interesting to combine this treatment with others that stimulate the formation of new collagen in the body to enhance the results and maintain them over time. The duration of the treatment depends on the type of skin, the age, the area to be treated and its sagging state, as well as the particular response of each patient. A new application may be necessary a few months after the first one to reinforce the effect. It is a minimally invasive and non-aggressive treatment for the body that achieves excellent results and does not produce rejection or allergies.
Body mesotherapy
Body mesotherapy is an aesthetic medicine treatment consisting of the application of very active substances in the skin through microinjections that stimulate the body. It is a technique widely used to eliminate cellulite and localized fat, reduce body volume, reduce flaccidity and fluid retention and redefine the silhouette. It is applied through subcutaneous or intradermal microinjections that allow us to infiltrate different products as close as possible to the tissue to be treated. This eliminates adipocytes in the area of application and achieves a restructuring of the collagen fibers, achieving a draining and firming effect on the skin.
It is a painless, simple, fast and very effective treatment that can be applied on legs, arms, buttocks, abdomen, neck and any other part of the body.
