There’s this common misconception that men are less concerned about signs of aging compared to women. Men have always been slower to adopt beauty trends, but the world is changing fast. Thanks to social media (and maybe their wives and significant others), more men are deciding to embrace the power of aesthetic treatments and be open about it.
Here, at the Luxe Room, we’re all about inclusivity and welcoming this shift with open arms. And because men’s features, facial anatomy and skin are different, they deserve special attention and cosmetic treatments tailored specifically for men’s concerns.
Don’t know where to start? We’ve outlined the top aesthetic treatments men get in our clinics, so you can understand the benefits, why they’re so popular and why they might fit you too.
1. Botox / Dysport
Lovingly nicknamed “Brotox,” Botox has become a go-to for men looking to smooth out wrinkles and keep a sharp, rested look. This neuromodulator works by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles, which reduces dynamic wrinkles. (We have a whole article on Botox for men if you’re curious about how it works.)
Between work stress, late nights, and squinting at screens, you frown, clench, and raise your brows more than you think. That’s why the most common injection areas for men are the frown lines, forehead, crow’s feet—and sometimes the masseter for jaw clenching. Getting Botox in those areas can make a massive difference in how rested and zen you look.
So, how are men different when it comes to neuromodulators? Men typically have stronger facial muscles, which means there’s more muscle to target, so you’ll likely need more units compared to women.
While Botox is a household name, we often recommend Dysport at The Luxe Room for both male and female patients. We love Dysport because it kicks in faster, with initial results appearing in 2–3 days compared to Botox’s 4–7 days. Dysport also diffuses more broadly, which makes it perfect for treating larger areas like the forehead.
A Botox/Dysport session is quick and less painful than you’d think, but you do have to maintain results as the effect lasts on average 3–4 months. Unless you get Daxxify! This newer option is changing the landscape of neuromodulators with its incredibly long-lasting results. Daxxify’s effects can last up to 6 months, and in some cases, even longer.
One last thing that can make the difference between subtle and unnatural is the skill of your injector and understanding the nuances of male facial anatomy. At The Luxe Room, we tailor each treatment to the individual’s facial structure and aesthetic goals, always aiming for natural results.
2. Sculptra
Sculptra might be the best-kept secret in subtle enhancement. Most men don’t walk into the clinic asking for it (we’re not even sure they know it exists), but they’re always impressed with the results once it’s on the table.
Technically, Sculptra is a collagen biostimulator. It works by triggering your body’s natural collagen production to restore volume in areas that have started to hollow out. So yes—it’s a filler, but not in the traditional sense.
For men, we use Sculptra to address volume loss in key areas: sunken cheeks, under-eye hollows, and temples. Plumping up those areas that get affected by aging and fat loss is what rejuvenates and restores that youthful look.
Sculptra is also great for softening deeper wrinkles like smile lines (nasolabial folds) or marionette lines (that run down from the corners of your mouth). As collagen builds, the skin thickens and gets that healthy, luminous glow we call the “Sculptra effect.”
But the real game-changer for men? The lower face. Sculptra can lift, define, and add structure to the jawline and chin—enhancing masculine angles over time. You can do this with dermal filler too, but Sculptra lasts longer, looks more natural, and keeps improving for months after each session.
3. Moxi Laser
When men hear “laser,” they usually think of hair removal. But like most beauty treatments, it starts with a complaint—and ends with a solution.
You don’t come in asking for Moxi. You come in saying your skin looks tired, uneven, rough. Maybe you’ve clocked too much sun, or your pores are starting to look bigger than you’d like. That’s when Moxi gets recommended.
Here are the most common complaints Moxi quietly fixes for male skin:
- Early sun damage and uneven skin tone
- Dull or rough texture
- Enlarged pores and mild acne scarring
- Fine lines creeping in too soon
Men love it because it’s beard-friendly (it works underneath stubble and facial hair), quick enough to fit into your lunch break, and doesn’t leave you hiding out for days. You might look a little flushed for 24 hours, but that’s about it. No peeling, no drama, just better skin.
So if you’re hopping on the “projuvenation” trend and taking care of your skin before aging really sets in, Moxi’s a smart place to start. It fits into your routine, doesn’t ask much of your schedule, and actually does what it says it will—cleaner skin, tighter pores, smoother texture.
4. IPL Photofacial
IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) is a top-tier fix for redness, sun damage, and uneven skin tone—especially for men who’ve spent years outdoors or skipped the SPF.
So if you’re wondering why your nose is always red, what those tiny capillaries are doing across your cheeks, or why those brown spots won’t fade no matter what you use—IPL is likely your answer.
Most men need 2 to 3 sessions, spaced 3 to 4 weeks apart, for pigment correction. If we’re targeting broken capillaries or chronic redness, expect closer to 3 to 5 sessions every 1 to 2 weeks. Brown spots may darken slightly before they lift. Vessels start to shrink and redness gradually fades.
You’ll need to wear sunscreen and avoid direct sun throughout the process, which is why we often suggest starting in fall or winter.
IPL also pairs well with Moxi—while IPL clears pigment and redness, Moxi takes care of texture and tone, making the combination a smart move for all-around skin improvement.
IPL isn’t suitable for all skin types—particularly deeper skin tones—so a consultation is essential before starting. We’ll make sure it’s the right match for your skin and goals.
5. Jawline Filler
Wondering how more men are getting that chiseled jawline look? It’s probably not jaw exercises, “mewing,” or more time at the gym. The fastest way to get that sharp, structured lower face is with jawline filler—dermal filler strategically injected to sculpt, enhance, and define masculine angles.
Let’s talk about the “where,” and what actually makes a face look masculine. Technique matters here—we’re after clean angles, not rounding in the wrong places. Typically, the goals with jawline filler are:
- Sharpening the Jaw Angle (Gonial Angle): This is the key anchor point for men. Filler is placed deep on the bone to create a more defined and prominent angle below the ear.
- Creating a Straighter Jawline: Treating the body of the mandible helps eliminate sagging or soft contours, creating a stronger, more linear edge from ear to chin.
- Widening and Projecting the Chin: Placing the filler on the sides and front of the chin can create a squarer, more balanced lower third.
- Using Structural Fillers: High G’ fillers are essential for building out definition and holding shape under thicker male skin.
In the process of sculpting your jaw, dermal filler can also help reduce the look of jowls or a double chin—and that’s a big win already.
For even better results, we often bring in a bit of facial balancing—additional subtle filler in the cheeks, or temples to pull everything into alignment. The jawline sets the tone, but it’s just one piece of the bigger picture.
Results are immediate and long-lasting, usually around 12 to 18 months, depending on the filler used. The most popular options? Juvederm® Volux or Restylane® Lyft, both designed to hold shape and support structure where it matters most.
Skincare Essentials for Men
You’ve visited a medspa and got your aesthetic fix. Now what? Time to commit to a skincare routine that maintains and enhances those results. Just like yo-yo dieting, you can’t expect your skin to stay sharp without consistency. Quick fixes are great—but long-term results need follow-through.
Enter: medical-grade skincare products packed with nourishing ingredients, hydration, and barrier support—everything your skin needs to recover, rebuild, and stay looking its best.
Overwhelmed by all the options out there? Don’t stress. If you don’t know where to start, just ask your injector. Focus on a few key categories that matter most: cleansing, hydrating, and preventing. You don’t need a 10-step routine—a few key products and you’re all good.
Men’s skin is different. It’s thicker, produces more oil, and reacts differently to stress, shaving, and environmental damage. That’s why off-the-shelf products don’t always cut it.
Here are our top picks from the skincare lines we trust most:
1. Skinbetter Science Solo Hydrating Defense MEN
Why it’s a must:
This one’s made specifically for men’s skin, which is naturally hicker, oilier, and more reactive. If you’re only going to use one product, this is it. It encompasses hydration, protection from free radicals, oil control, and even skin tone all in one step.
2. ZO Skin Health Exfoliating Polish
Why it’s a must:
Men’s skin tends to have more buildup from shaving, oil, and other environmental stressors. The ZO exfoliating polish instantly works wonders for not only smoothing texture, but unclogging pores as well. It leaves the skin clearer and more even. Use it a few times a week- especially before shaving or after a workout.
3. Alastin Regenerating Skin Nectar with TriHex Technology®
Why it’s a must:
This is next-level skin support for men who are proactive about wrinkles and signs of aging. The Alastin Regenerating Skin Nectar is perfect for pairing with in clinic treatments like IPL or Moxi. It helps skin recover faster, increases collagen and elastin production, and improves the longevity of treatment results.
