Science can help you look softer
Facial feminization procedures have been gaining popularity lately for both male and female patients. Feminization usually refers to the softening of hard and angular features, but there is no one-size-fits-all approach to facial feminization.
For starters, we have to focus on what procedures would make him feel more confident in his own skin. One of the first concerns that should be addressed is the skin quality. Generally, men’s dominant hormone is androgen (or testosterone). This hormone influences the skin’s thickness and quality, which can explain why males usually have oilier and rougher skin textures. Because men have this type of skin, they are also very prone to acne. Our first agenda would be to resolve the acne, uneven skin tone, texture, and overall skin quality.
We can put the patient through the Acne Clear Program, consisting of a series of Acne Clear lasers. These non-invasive anti acne lasers lessen skin inflammation and hasten skin healing for visibly smoother and even-toned skin. Combined with the Coquille peel, a peel with Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs), made from natural fruit and food extracts, a man’s skin is exfoliated to reveal healthy, renewed skin that’s brighter, more hydrated, and less irritated.
Because of all the acne, one must also address scars from previous breakouts. We may use the Dermablate Erbium Yag Laser to address post-acne scars and large pores. For the unwanted pigmentation, we can use Angel White Laser to fade all the dark spots, and the ultimate Pico Plus Laser to help the patient maintain his clear and supple skin. Laser Facial Hair Removal also will help smoothen out the skin.
Structurally, masculine faces typically have more prominent foreheads, deeper set eyes, and more angular lips and cheeks. The addition of HA filler on these areas round out and soften features, creating a rounder facial structure, softly volumized lips, and fuller cheeks.
We may also use threads to bring aesthetic balance to the face. PCL threads can be used to define and raise the brows, and nose thread to refine the nose, making it appear more delicate and feminine.
A male’s very masculine, squarish, wide, and angular jaw can also be re-contoured using Neurotoxin Masseter Reductions, giving the patient a narrower jawline. For extra tightening and lifting, we may use energy devices like Ultherapy and Sofwave. This is an effective method of tightening the skin to reduce early jowl formation and create a firmer, smoother look.
Achieving the softer, feminine face you have always dreamed of is now an empowering and life-changing possibility. All you have to do is discuss your goals with your doctor to come up with a realistic treatment plan.
