3 ways to make men look fantastic

If you’re a man or you know a man who may be interested in looking more athletic, chiselled and looking fresher and younger then read on as I describe the top three ways I use dermal fillers to help men look fantastic when they attend me at Castleknock Cosmetic Clinic, Dublin.

So what are fillers?

Fillers are naturally occurring substances that are injected to help reshape the face without the need for surgery. Popular hyaluronic acid dermal fillers include Restylane, Juvéderm and Belotero. Long lasting dermal fillers include Radiesse and Ellansé.

STRONG CHIN

One of the key areas in treating men is the chin. Strong chins are synonymous with strength and confidence. We look to see strong chins in leaders in politics and in business. Examples can be seen in athletes and hero’s we admire. In Hollywood a strong chin can mean the difference between a supporting actor and a leading man. Fillers can be used to add one or two centimetres of projection to the chin. Guys’, adding one or two centimetre projection to your chin is like adding one or two inches to your height. Chin can make you look more athletic, can give you more of an alpha male appearance and it can make you look more chiselled.

UNDEREYE

The second great place to treat me with fillers is under the eyes. Fillers are fantastic in removing dark circles and bags and this can make us fresher and more youthful without the need for surgery. People who have dark circles and pigmentation under the eye are helped with fillers camouflage and restore fullness in the area making them look fresher and more youthful.

MASCULINISATION

The third treatment that’s great with fillers in men is full face masculinisation treatment. In this masculinisation treatment often small changes to key areas of the male face making the entire face looking more balanced, proportioned and better. In masculinisation treatment of the full face I target the undereyes, nose, cheeks and chin. The treatments are administered over a number of sessions and small changes can often make great impact.

So in summary, fillers can be used in men to non-surgically augment the chin making it more chiselled more athletic. They can be used to hide circles under the eyes making men look fresher and younger. Finally they could be used for full face masculinisation treatment making the face look more symmetric, more balanced and more attractive in general. I hope this blog was helpful and I look forward to welcoming you in our practice.

Male Breast Reduction

Male breast reduction is a very common cosmetic surgery with few risks. The procedure is typically used to help men with gynecomastia/gynaecomastia, a condition characterized by excess mammary tissue, or pseudogynecomastia which is a mixture of fatty and breast tissue. More and more men are visiting Castleknock Cosmetic Clinic to undergo breast reduction and create a more athletic and enhanced physique. This man boobs busting procedure has helped many men throughout Ireland and the UK feel better about their appearance. The clinic identified the need for men to address this cumbersome problem and helped improved the lives of gynaecomastia patients in Irish nationwide.

You’re in good hands

You are not alone. Up to 7% of men have the condition. Men from across the island of Ireland have gained lifestyle and confidence benefits of our gynecomastia treatments at Castleknock Cosmetic Clinic Dublin. To see how other patients have succeeded in reducing the dreaded man boobs with this permanent reduction procedure, please inspect our gallery at Castleknock Cosmetic Clinic male breast reduction page with sample before and after pictures.

Your step by step guide

First step is to identify with your problem having enlarged chest area. The problem is called gynaecomastia or man boobs. Gynecomastia can happen to men of any age, but 40% of cases start in adolescence. Medical literature reports suggest as many as 65 percent of teenage boys have gynecomastia, and in the vast majority of these teenage boys, the condition simply goes away on its own by the time they’re 18. The remaining 6 to 7 percent will continue to suffer this lifelong anomaly. There are men who begin to develop the enlarged breasts problem at older age, which can cause discomfort and poor self image. I see men resorting to baggy clothes, dark rooms and shying away from swimming. If you are a man who identifies with these concerns or struggles with more than usually large breasts, then male breast reduction at Castleknock Cosmetic Clinic Dublin could be a good choice for you.

Step two is to seek advice and professional opinion. You need to book a consultation with me at the clinic by either calling the clinic (01-8278766) or emailing me in confidence drk@castleknockcosmetics.ie. I have been seeing men with gynaecomastia since 1999 and I’m a member of BABS (British Association of Body Sculpting) and BCAM. During your initial consultation the extent of the condition is identified. I will guide you through the various options of treatment available. These include surgical resection, fat freezing or VASER lipo. Every patient is different and while one option could be ideal for one man, it could be the wrong choice for another!

Third step is to get the procedure. Male breast reduction is an outpatient procedure normally done pain free under numbing anesthesia. It typically takes a couple of hours to perform. At your initial gynecomastia consultation in Castleknock Cosmetic Clinic Dublin, I would have examine how much fat, glandular material and excess skin are present.

The most modern and effective procedure for managing man boobs either gynaecomastia or pseudogynaecomastia is VASER Lipo. The procedure painlessly breaks down the targeted tissue when a VASER probe is inserted under the skin through small 3mm incision. The man boobs tissue is then simply suctioned out leaving an even and sculpted contour.

How about the recovery?

Recovery after the procedure will involve some bruising and tenderness but will subside over the next few days. Swelling will happen. You will usually wear a snug fitting compression garment around the chest for the first three to four weeks. The compression garment will help the swelling go down and accelerate healing. Most of our male breast reduction patients in Dublin return to work within three days after surgery. No sutures are used as the small 2-3mm skin openings heal quickly. You are then reviewed a few days later and if all is well you should return to physical activities a week later. In certain cases I would recommend manual lymphatic drainage massage to help accelerate the recovery process. Although visible reduction will be noted a week later, total recovery from all the swelling can take a few months.

Final results?

The results of your male breast reduction with VASER are permanent, although you are subject to changes in appearance if your weight fluctuates. Scarring is minimal and will fade with time. Once those man boobs are gone, they are usually gone for good.

The best treatment to eliminate gynecomastia is VASER lipo. The skilled, kind staff at Castleknock Cosmetic Clinic Dublin understands how important it is for our male breast reduction patients to feel good about their bodies. Your interactions with us are confidential, private and discreetly carried out. We are pleased to offer our surgical expertise to gynecomastia patients throughout our extended community, which includes Dublin, Irish nationwide counties, Northern Ireland and the UK. Please feel free to set up an appointment with me to explore your options for male breast reduction by calling the clinic (01-8278766) or email me directly drk@castleknockcosmetics.ie

Men having liposuction continues to be on the rise. In the past cosmetic surgery for men was considered a cliché. Real me didn’t do it. Stop. There has been major change to men’s attitude in my years of practice. More men have come to accept and indeed embrace the benefits of cosmetic procedures. Over the last ten years liposuction with VASER has been a popular method for men to deal with love handles, man boobs and irregular physique. No wonder liposuction is the number one cosmetic procedure requested by men.

As men attitudes change, older men are competing with millennials who are rapidly becoming the majority in the workplace. Men are finding it essential to look their best, healthy and fit. In the job market, the better you look the greater your chances to succeed. Modern liposuction like VASER which is less invasive can help a man to achieve an appearance that closely matches the masculine ideal of sculpted fit physique. It is fact of nature that even a very fit man in his forties, most likely in his endurance prime (life starts at 40. Right?) Simply won’t have the muscle definition that he did when in his twenties.

Best candidates for VASER lipo are those who want to get rid of superficial fat that is exercise and diet resistant. The best results are achieved when your skin is fairly elastic and you’re as near your ideal weight as possible.

Castleknock Cosmetic Clinic Dublin launched a campaign to educate people on a new alternative to treating hyperhidrosis. Dr. Hazem Kahlout specialises in a safe and effective procedure using neurotoxins and in VASER procedure to treat this medical condition commonly referred to as excessive sweating.

hyperhidrosis excessive sweating castlkenock csoemtic clinic dublin

Excessive sweating is associated with over-stimulation of a nervous system pathway. In certain people heat and stress stimulate this system in an unpredictable pattern, resulting in hyperactive sweat glands. Recent evidence shows that genetics may cause excessive sweating.

Excessive sweating is diagnosed when a person’s sweating becomes uncontrollable and begins to adversely affect the individual. It can be a substantial burden to afflicted individuals, interfering with daily activities and causing social embarrassment and anxiety. Many people with the condition must change their clothing several times per day.

The Irish Medicine Board has approved the use of botox for hyperhidrosis treatment. However, botox is not the only brand name of botulinum toxin suitable for the treatment. Other popular brands include Dysport, Xeomin, Azzalure and Bocouture. The toxin is an immune modulator that works by blocking the conduction of acetylcholine, a chemical released by nerves to stimulate the sweat glands. Without this stimulation, the local production of sweat is stopped. The “Med-1 Scheme” covers the cost of this treatment alternative.
