According to The Aesthetic Society, men are receiving more aesthetic treatments now more than ever, having increased the number of non-invasive procedures undergone by 20% in 2019 vs. 2018. Men are becoming savvier with skincare and more comfortable receiving anti-ageing treatments. Here is what today’s men seem to be looking for, does any of this apply to you?
Fast, No-Downtime Procedures with Natural Results:
Men are seeking treatments that provide lasting results with minimal to no effort on their part. Lunch time procedures are extremely popular in this demographic. Men also typically do not want to appear enhanced, so natural-looking results are more desirable dealing with this patient population.
Treatments That Address THEIR Unique Concerns:
Men are also focusing on more treatments that correct the signs of aging in the facial regions, such as the glabella and upper eyes. The chest, abdomen, and back are also areas of interest for body contouring, fat reduction, and laser hair removal treatments.
Here Are the Top 5 Aesthetic Treatments that Men Are Looking For:
-
Botox & Filler
This tried and true combination does not surprise most. Botox and filler present an amazing solution for those looking to target specific areas. Over 10% of the Botox treatments performed this year were done on men, and their presence in this space is growing.

Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal treatments are the most in-demand non-surgical procedures behind injections (The Aesthetic Society, 2019). And let’s face it, men aren’t the most tolerant of pain, especially when areas are significant like backs and legs. This is why pain-free alternatives to traditional laser hair removal, such as the Motus AY and Motus AX, are becoming a staple in laser hair removal for men. The Motus AX uses contact cooling along with Moveo technology to safely reduce hair growth for all skin types without the traditional ‘rubber band snap’ patient experience. Men’s Health recently called the Motus AX a “game-changer” for laser hair removal for men.
Celebrity dermatologist and founder of New York City’s The Dermatology and Laser Group, Dr. Akhavan, shared, “For men, who traditionally have coarser hair, and a little bit of a lower pain tolerance, the main issue and impediment to getting laser hair removal has been pain. But with the Motus, you do not feel anything happening. Instead of delivering the energy in these large chunks like in a traditional laser, it breaks the energy down into smaller chunks and delivers them very rapidly, so you don’t feel pain.”
