Non-Surgical Anti-Aging Treatments for Men

Of the two sexes, women are known to be more self-conscious about their physical appearance. However, in recent years there has been a growing trend in men who are increasingly open to using skincare products and receive non-surgical anti-aging treatments to age-proof their skin. 

As it is more cost-effective and convenient to start anti-aging journey in the early 30s, many medical aesthetic clinics in Singapore are seeing younger clients, especially male who want to improve their appearance. They are no longer shying away from aesthetic treatments. 

Dr. Siew Tuck Wah of Radium Medical Aesthetics, tell us more about the beauty trends that are increasingly popular with men.

Acne scar treatment


Uneven skin caused by depressed scars is one of the leading complaints men have when they visit their aesthetic doctor. Men, like most women, want smoother skin. According to Dr. Siew, CO2 skin resurfacing fractional laser does a good job at smoothening skin irregularities such as depressed scars. The laser ablates the top layer of the skin, allowing new skin and collagen to grow. 

One of the latest and advanced laser treatments in Singapore is the PicoSure Laser. Powered by technology that emits laser beams in picoseconds, the skin-smoothening and collagen building process become more effective with minimal downtime.

Unfortunately, laser treatments are not suitable for people with relatively dark skin. The risks of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation are high. INFINI is an advanced acne scar treatment that is able to treat all skin types, regardless of color. 

INIFNI treatment is a minimally-invasive procedure that uses micro-needles to administer radiofrequency waves into the dermis. It is a highly versatile treatment that allows the doctor to adjust the depth of the needles between 0.5mm and 3.5mm. The depth of the micro-channels induced by INFINI can effectively target stubborn, deeper atrophic acne scars. 

Dermal fillers to replace loss of volume


We generally think that Caucasian men are generally more attractive. This is because they usually have a stronger jawline and a defined chin compared to their Asian counterparts. Someone with a receding jaw looks weak and are often not held in high regard. By injecting tiny amounts of dermal fillers in the right places, aesthetic doctors can augment facial features to achieve a stronger, more masculine, and chiseled jawline. 

Many Asian men have weak chin. Although a weak chin does not physically impact a person, it may make an over-projected nose more prominent. Chin fillers can easily address the problem of a weak chin. A balanced chin improves overall facial appearance, giving a person an improved facial harmony.

Fat loss treatment


In all fairness, weight should be just as easy to lose as it is to gain? But the truth of the matter is that many things in life aren’t fair, and that’s the way it is. 

Sticking to a regular exercise regime is the most difficult part of losing those extra pounds. It is not just the hectic work schedule that gets in the way; it is also mentally draining for someone to follow through a gym routine after work.

Men are turning to fat freeze treatment to lose stubborn areas of fat on their body that they simply could not get rid of despite exercising and dieting. Even for men who are seeing results with strict diet and exercise regime, combining weight loss regime with fat freeze treatments can get them back into shape more quickly. 

Skin lifting procedures


Our skin sags as we age. The loss of elastic tissue and collagen cause the skin to hang loosely from the body as we grow older. Signs of aging are more apparent on the face than anywhere else on the body because of the thin layer of skin and the frequent exposure to the harmful UV rays. 

Two non-surgical skin lifting treatments that are commonly used to address saggy skin are Ultherapy and thread lift treatment. Ultherapy uses ultrasound technology to lift and tighten the skin. Thread lift treatment is a minimally-invasive procedure that yields immediate, visible results by inserting dissolvable threads lined with hooks or barbs to suspend the loose skin. One of the most popular thread lift treatments in Singapore is known as Silhouette Soft Thread Lift.

Maintaining a youthful appearance is no longer a woman's prerogative. Looking good should be a part of a man’s goal. Looking presentable can open more doors to opportunities, socially and professionally. With so many low-risk aesthetic treatments that can yield effective results, it is no surprise that men are becoming more receptive to aesthetic treatments. 

Radium Medical Aesthetics is a medical aesthetic clinic in Singapore that offers a wide range of non-surgical anti-aging treatments to keep you looking rejuvenated and fresh at all times.

Why Some People Never Seem to Age

“Aging is not an option, not for anyone. It is how gracefully we handle the process and how lucky we are, as the process handles us,” said Cindy Mcdonald. Some lucky people don't seem to age a day, whereas most of us either look our age or look older than we actually are. The ravages of time definitely did not do any damage to superstars like Halle Berry. Googling a photo of Halle Berry shows you that time doesn't seem to have any effect on her. So do Jennifer Aniston, Liv Tyler, and Elijah Wood, who seem to go against the expectations of how people should grow old. Although it is true that some people are luckier as compared to the rest of us with respect to aging, most people who don’t look their age have gone the extra mile to delay signs of aging. With advances in anti-aging medicine, doctors are able to slow down the aging process with remarkable results, and minimal downtime.  What Happens When We Age? In addition to intrinsic aging, many factors are at p

How To Get Rid of Eye Bags Without Surgery

People often say that the eyes are the windows to the soul. Our eyes don’t lie. They show the truth, no matter what situation we are in. The eyes are often one of the first facial features we look at when we meet people for the first time. It can be particularly embarrassing for people who don't look after their eyes, especially if dark eye circles and eye bags become visible to others.  The skin around the eyes are extremely thin. With very little collagen and elastin fibers around the eyes, aging often occurs around the eyes first. First signs of aging typically occurs in the mid 20’s. This happens when the skin around the eyes becomes so loose that it hangs and creates folds around the eyes. Sun exposure remains one of the leading causes of aging around the eyes. Exposure to the ultraviolet rays (UVA and UVB) can cause serious damage to the skin. UVB rays are known to break down the healthy DNA in your body. On the other hand, UVA rays penetrate deeply

Our skin weights about 8 pounds, covering a surface area of about 22 square feet. Most of us take our skin for granted but very few people know its importance in keeping us alive. Our skin is waterproof, insulating us from extreme weather conditions, and keeping out pollutants and harmful chemicals out of our body.  The skin is also very vulnerable because it covers our whole body, shielding us from the harsh conditions. A small injury or trauma can make a big difference in how it looks, leaving unsightly scars that can be etched on the skin for life.
