Mansfield Cosmetic Surgery Center – Med Spa for Men

When we think of aesthetic procedures, we tend to focus on women and the signs of aging. But in all of the advertising and talk of anti-aging, we forget about men - who are just as concerned with premature signs of aging and changes in skin appearance as their female counterparts. However, because most cosmetic procedures are geared toward women, it may seem that seeking out aesthetic treatments isn’t “manly,” or they worry that some treatments may make men appear too feminine.

Cosmetic Procedures Aren’t Just for Women Anymore

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, over one million men underwent “minimally invasive” cosmetic procedures in 2016, compared to nearly 13 million women. Minimally invasive procedures like male facials, IPL / Photofacials, PicoSure Focus skin treatments, Laser Resurfacing, Botox, Radiesse fillers, and Juvederm dermal fillers are in-office aesthetic procedures that have quick recovery and require no anesthesia.

Medical Spa Offerings

At Mansfield Cosmetic Surgery Center Med Spa for Men, we offer male services - featuring treatments that will subtly rejuvenate your skin without making it appear that you had “work done.” Below are some of the options you will find in our Mansfield office:

• Botox and Xeomin for Men
  You’re probably familiar with Botox and the other similar treatments that contain botulinum toxin, its active ingredient. Botox is injected into the muscles in the forehead or around the eyes to “freeze” or paralyze the muscles, thereby smoothing out forehead lines, frown lines and crows feet. Botox injections typically last between three to four months, and with consistent use, wrinkles can be maintained in a persistently relaxed state. Dr. Michael L. Thornton, a double board certified cosmetic surgeon and Diplomate of the American Board of Cosmetic Surgery, personally performs all Botox injections to provide you with the highest level of physician-level service. Men typically require more Botox than women, because they have more muscle mass in the treatment areas than women - an important distinction when you are seeking superior results!
• Dermal Fillers and Injectables for Men
  Men typically begin to see the start of aging around the nose and mouth in an area called the nasolabial fold. As men age, there are collections of changes that occur throughout the body, and the face tends to be the area that we notice the most, specifically in the nasolabial fold. At Mansfield Cosmetic Surgery Center Med Spa for Men, we offer a variety of options of dermal fillers. Juvederm, Radiesse, Voluma, and Belotero are just a few of the dermal fillers Dr. Michael Thornton can utilize to improve the lines and folds around your mouth and nose, giving you a smoother, younger looking face. All dermal fillers used in our office are temporary fillers and typically last 4-6 months (or longer) and Dr. Michael Thornton personally injects all dermal fillers.
• Erbium, CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing, PicoSure Focus Skin for Men
  Laser skin resurfacing and PicoSure Focus Skin are procedure used to treat fine lines, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and sun damage caused by the ravages of daily life. Dr. Michael Thornton tailors these skin laser treatments to benefit a man’s skin, as men tend to have a thicker dermal layer and also show more visible signs of sun damage and discoloration than women.
• Skin Care for Men
  Dr. Thornton provides individualized skin care for men that includes pharmacy compounded face creams that address sun damage, even out skin pigmentation and improve discoloration. These creams contain ingredients that are vital to the health of a man’s skin - Vitamin C, Vitamin A (Retin-A), antioxidants, and a host of other skin rejuvenating boosters. In addition, our licensed aestheticians can perform hydrofacials, intense pulsed light (IPL) treatments, and chemical peels to further enhance and refresh your skin.

If you feel like your skin is making you look older than you feel, it might be time to visit Dr. Michael Thornton and our Med Spa for Men. There are many options to make your skin appear smoother and refreshed, and most every treatment can be done quickly and with minimal downtime.
