The normal aging processes in the face lead to a reduction in the structure of the skull bones and fat pads. Imagine a balloon from which the air is slowly escaping. What happens to the latex skin? Exactly... it becomes flabby and wrinkly. This phenomenon is no different in the face – the skin remains and "shrivels" according to certain laws that are related to the anatomy of a face: Dark circles under the eyes, drooping eyelids, a sunken mid-face, a blurred jawline due to sagging skin, a receding chin with double chin formation, etc. are the consequences. The result is an old and tired-looking face, which often does not correspond to how many vital men feel on the inside.
The treatment of choice is a treatment plan that firstly replaces the lost volume and secondly tightens sagging skin areas.
Sagging skin areas can be tightened using threads, which fix the skin back where it once was thanks to their minimal barbs. In this technique, called thread lifting, fine threads are inserted under local anesthesia through an invisible puncture directly in front of the ear towards the nose or mouth area, thus tightening the skin. The result is immediately visible. Very often, however, additional volume is required to fill in sunken areas of the face or areas where the bone or fat has receded, such as the chin, jawline, zygomatic arches, etc. Fillers such as hyaluronic acid and autologous fat or fillers that build up collagen, such as Sculptra, Ellansé or Radiesse, are the ideal treatment for building up volume. The result is a fresh, vital and more attractive appearance – all completely natural. Such treatments should only be carried out by doctors who specialize in treating men, as otherwise a male face may look fuller and firmer but suddenly very feminine.
Strained facial expressions (frown lines), which often occur when working long hours at a computer screen, can also lead to a tense, stressed facial expression in men. In these cases, BTX often helps within a few minutes. This substance naturally blocks the junction between the nerve ending and the muscle fiber, which leads to relaxation of the muscle. You look relaxed and refreshed. The special anatomy of the male facial muscles must also be taken into account when using BTX, so that the result of BTX makes men look completely natural and masculine.
Depending on the findings, a facelift may be necessary in individual cases, which is often combined with a neck lift. Our technique, which is tailored to men's skin, means that the procedure can be carried out on an outpatient basis under local anaesthetic and twilight sleep, so there is no need for a hospital stay. You can return to work after just a few days because, unlike women, men's skin swells very little and shows no discoloration.
The procedure takes 2-4 hours and is performed by Dr. Werner Gallenkämper, who specializes in facelift treatment for men.
