Depending on where you live and who you associate with, you may already know that men’s facial fillers are growing in popularity.  Here in Southern California, they’re even becoming the norm in some circles. Even though the stigmas against male cosmetic enhancement are on the decline, not every man wants his results to announce themselves to the world. At Siti Med Spa, we’re experienced in the art of subtle cosmetic enhancement with men’s facial fillers. If you’re ready to discreetly enhance your facial masculinity, fight the signs of aging, or just strengthen a single feature without a lot of fanfare, we can help. Men’s facial fillers are completely customizable and can be used to create subtle changes. Or dramatic ones—we can do that, too.  Here’s what you need to know.

Men’s facial fillers vs. women’s facial fillers

The cosmetic filler formulas used to create youthful feminine and masculine facial enhancements might be the same, but the strategies and outcomes are as different as night and day.  A treatment plan for cosmetic fillers must be methodically planned out and carefully executed by an expert practitioner who has a thorough knowledge of facial anatomy as well as an understanding of how to achieve a more masculine appearance vs a more feminine one. Here are some of the differences:

A masculine face shape is typically characterized by:

• Strong, sharp angles

• A wide, prominent jaw

• A straight, prominent brow

A feminine face shape is typically characterized by: 

• Soft, round features

• Fullness in the cheek area

• A slightly arched brow

In general, men’s facial fillers are used to reinforce the support structures that create angled, prominent features and minimize the signs of aging.  When it comes to eliminating lines and wrinkles with dermal fillers, men also tend to prefer more subtlety, retaining some character rather than completely smoothing out the skin. 

Benefits of men’s facial fillers

One of the biggest benefits of dermal fillers is that they allow for a completely customized treatment. You can focus on the whole face, just a targeted area, or anything in between. You also have the option of starting with subtle changes and gradually building up for a discreet strengthening of your masculine features. Or, if you prefer, you can take a bold approach right from the start.  Take a look below at some of the other potential benefits of men’s facial fillers. 

• Squared, defined jawline

• Prominent chin

• Strong brow

• Restoration of lost volume

• Reduction of shadows and hollows

• Reduced appearance of lines and wrinkles

• Non-surgical anti-aging treatment

• Little to no recovery time

Most men new to dermal fillers appreciate their temporary nature. Depending on the formula, dermal fillers last anywhere from 6 to 18 months, some up to 2 years, so you can give them a try without making a “forever” commitment. At Siti Med Spa, our guess is that once you get a glimpse of your stronger, more masculine face, you’ll love the way you look so much, you’ll be back for more.
