Brotox- Botox Treatment for Men
Women have long been held to a higher aging standard than men, but it appears as though that gap may be closing. According to a new study, the number of American men getting Botox injections—which relax the facial muscles to minimize lines and wrinkles—has skyrocketed 258 percent over the past decade!
It’s true guys, men are going to lengths once believed only reserved for women to try and gain an edge. Skin care, grooming, and cosmetics have all seen a significant shift towards a male audience, but now it’s going a step further with nonsurgical cosmetic procedures, specifically Botox for men. With a recent boom, Botox, or even now referred to as “Brotox”, is becoming a go-to treatment for men of all ages. (Botox is approved for the use on individuals between the ages 18-65).
If you choose to opt for this treatment, you can expect a very simple procedure. First, our physician will instructs you to scowl, squint, and scrunch up your face to determine the most suitable place to inject Botox. This treatment is quick, relatively painless and can be completed in about 15 minutes with no downtime afterwards. Coming over on your lunch break? Not to worry, those little red dots that appear immediately after will likely be gone by the time you get back to work. The onset of this treatment will begin to work within 5-7 days, typically seeing full results at the two week mark. Effects of Botox can be expected to last between 3-4 months.
It’s also important to note, Botox has been clinically evaluated in male patients. In clinical studies for moderate to severe frown lines, 17.5% of patients treated with Botox were men. In the clinical studies for moderate to severe crow’s feet, male patients comprised approximately 10% of patients treated. Trust us, you’re not alone!
