BOTOX For Men Procedure Overview

Scope:

BOTOX for men, also known as BRO-TOX, is a non-surgical injectable that erases frown lines and crow’s feet, restoring a more youthful, energized countenance.

Local anesthesia is used.

What Is BRO-TOX?

Male BOTOX, commonly referred to as “BRO-TOX,” is an injectable that targets dynamic wrinkles in the forehead and around the eyes. These lines form as a result of repetitive facial movements, such as laughing, smiling, frowning, and squinting. BOTOX erases these unwanted creases with no downtime or discomfort, restoring a rested and attractive appearance.

How Does BOTOX Work?

BOTOX is a neurotoxin that, when injected into facial muscles, temporarily freezes contractions, leading to smoother, wrinkle-free skin. The muscles stay relaxed for around 3-5 months, after which you can repeat the treatment to prolong your natural-looking changes. If you don’t wish to undergo BOTOX again, your wrinkles and lines will simply return, and your face will look the same as before.

What Can Ocean County Men Expect From a BOTOX Session?

BOTOX injections are quick, painless, and easy, taking just minutes to complete. Your skin can be numbed beforehand with a topical anesthetic to enhance your comfort. Once you are relaxed and ready, your provider will use an ultra-fine needle to inject BOTOX into the targeted regions of the face. The most you will feel is just a minor pinprick when the needle enters the skin. Dr. Small and his team are meticulously detailed and ensure that your final results appear natural and unforced. Once your injections are completed, you are free to return to your normal schedule.

BOTOX Recovery for Men

BOTOX injections do not typically require any downtime recovery. You are free to resume normal activities immediately after your session, returning to work, school, or leisure time. In fact, many of our busy, active patients undergo BOTOX over their lunch breaks. 

After your treatment, avoid rubbing, touching, or otherwise disturbing the targeted sites. This is so that the product does not migrate to unintended areas. Wait at least 24 hours before drinking alcohol, engaging in exercise, or being exposed to extreme heat.

BOTOX For Men Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Does BOTOX for Men Cost?

BOTOX for men is typically sold by the unit, and each patient will require a unique number of units to meet their goals. The total price depends on the number of sessions you undergo and the extent of the changes you desire. Because men have more developed facial muscles than women, they typically need more units of BOTOX. Dr. Small can answer all your questions about pricing after completing your private consultation in Ocean County.

Is BOTOX Painful?

Most patients find BOTOX sessions to be painless and stress-free. Your skin is numbed with a topical anesthetic prior to your injections, which maximizes your comfort and peace of mind. After your appointment, you may experience some mild soreness at the injection sites. This side effect can be well-managed with ice and over-the-counter pain medications if needed.

Can You Combine BOTOX With Other Treatments?

Yes. Dr. Small performs a wide range of powerful aesthetic treatments to help patients achieve their ideal look. He can pair your BOTOX injections with a male facelift, male rhinoplasty, eyelid lift for men, or laser hair removal. If you desire a combination approach to your care, Dr. Small can discuss your options in more depth during your private consultation.

What Are the Risks Associated with BOTOX?

When performed by the licensed, experienced providers at Ocean Plastic Surgery, BOTOX injections are safe, effective, and seamless. However, there are a few risks to be aware of, which Dr. Small can go over with you in more depth during your private consultation. Risks include the following:

  • Swelling
  • Bruising
  • Redness
  • Tenderness
  • Drooping eyelids
  • Brow asymmetry
  • Dysphagia
  • A crooked smile
  • Drooling
  • Headaches
  • Flu symptoms
  • Dry eyes
  • Muscle weakness

How Many BOTOX Units Do Men Typically Need?

Because their facial muscles are larger and stronger, men sometimes need up to 2-3 times as many units of BOTOX to achieve the same results as women do. As an example, if a woman requires 10-20 units of BOTOX to combat forehead creases, a man may need 20-60 units to address the same concern. However, every patient is unique, and only a personalized consultation can determine the extent of the changes required to achieve your individual goals. Dr. Small will let you know exactly how many units he plans to inject after completing your consultation in Toms River or Stafford Township.

When Should Male Patients Start BOTOX?

There is no specific right age to undergo BOTOX. If you are in your 20s or 30s, BOTOX can help prevent signs of aging before they occur. If you are in your 40s, 50s, or 60s, BOTOX can erase entrenched, dynamic lines, restoring a vibrant and refreshed appearance.

Does BOTOX Make Your Forehead Shiny?

The forehead can sometimes look more shiny after BOTOX because its surface is now smoother and thus reflects more light. However, Dr. Small insists on natural-looking results and will not leave you with an overly tight forehead.
