Treatments For Men

Wrinkle Reduction

Anti-wrinkle injections are a revolution in non-invasive facial rejuvenation. At Avenue Advanced Skin Care, we offer expertise in comfortable, safe, and precise anti-wrinkle injections. Treatments involve an injection of a natural, purified protein to relax the muscles responsible for wrinkles.

Common treatment areas for men include frown lines between the eyebrows, crows feet around the eyes and worry lines across the forehead. Treatments only take approximately 10-20 minutes and provide smoother skin for 4 to 6 months, with visible results within days after your treatment.

Dermal fillers

Dermal fillers are a safe and effective way to attain a healthy and natural appearance. A non-surgical treatment, dermal fillers are injected below the skin and are designed to help combat the signs of ageing, and can be effective at adding shape to the face and proportion to areas of concern – treatments such as nose reshaping and chin augmentation are particularly common with our male clientele.

Dermal Fillers are a fast and simple procedure with immediately noticeable and natural results.

Acne

Acne is a very common skin condition among both men and women, and people of all ages can be affected – despite having had an acne-free youth.

The causes of acne are multi-factorial and different for each person, and therefore acne treatments used vary from person to person. Treatments need to be tailored to the severity of the acne present, the ability to identify and avoid certain triggers. If acne is left untreated, scarring can result.

We can offer a safe and effective approaches to the treatment of acne with a wide range of treatment options such as;

• Healite II LED Light Therapy
• HydraFacial
• Clinical Peels
• Fotona Laser for Acne
• Diathermy

Acne scarring

The infection and inflammation associated with acne can cause temporary or permanent scarring on the skin. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (darkening of skin pigmentation), hypopigmentation (loss of pigmentation), and long term redness of the skin are all common occurrences after an acne lesion has passed. Furthermore textural changes and scarring can occur after large acne lesions, or after picking or squeezing. Because each type of acne scar has its own unique set of characteristics, we do not take a one-size-fits-all approach to treatment. Treatment plans need to be tailored to the type of scarring present and the amount of downtime that the patient can tolerate. Treatments we have available to treat acne scarring include;

• DermanPen® skin needling
• Infini MFR
• PRP (platelet rich plasma) Therapy
• Fotona Laser for fractional resurfacing
• TCA peels
• Cortisone injections
• Dermal Fillers

Pigmentation

Changes in the skin related to pigmentation can include freckles (ephelides), moles (nevi), age or sun spots (senile & solar lentingo), post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIHP) and birthmarks. Pigmentation can cause the skin to look prematurely aged or uneven in appearance. Men who spend a lot of time outdoors, for work and/or leisure are more likely to suffer from pigmentation of the skin.

The mode of treatment used will be dependent on the type of pigmentation, patient preference and patient risk tolerance. Furthermore a multi-modal approach can have the best outcome for clients who suffer from pigmentation. Treatments available for pigmentation include;

• Fotona laser for pigmentation
• Palomar Starlux IPL Photo Rejuvenation
• Fotona Laser for fractional treatment
• Clinical peels

Rosacea

Rosacea is a common, chronic skin condition that results in facial inflammation and redness. Rosacea classically presents as underlying redness, facial flushing, visible capillaries and sensitivity. Men are more than twice as likely to experience an enlarged nose in a condition known as rhinophyma, which is a symptom of a more severe class of rosacea. Symptoms of this subtype include excess tissue, thickening of the skin and irregular surface nodules.We emphasise the importance of ongoing management of Rosacea, which also includes identifying and avoiding certain lifestyle triggers which can aggravate rosacea.

We can offer a safe and effective approach to the treatment of rosacea with a wide range of treatment options such as;

• Healite II LED Light Therapy
• Fotona Laser for Vascular Damage
• Palomar Starlux IPL Photofacial

Hair Removal Melbourne

Work environment, hobbies and general lifestyle habits can all impact the way men age. Daily at-home skin care routines can either be a help or a hindrance to the health of the skin.

Not all skincare is created equal. Cosmetic skin care products (found in pharmacies, retail stores, department stores, supermarkets and spa/beauty clinics) are not able to deliver change to your skin. The ingredients in these products are generally not active, and because of in-effective delivery systems, are not able to penetrate the skin at a cellular level. Meaning these products can only maintain your skin at its current condition.

Cosmeceutical skin care is formulated to include chirally-correct active ingredients, without the inclusion of irritants, toxic or harmful ingredients. The complex delivery systems in cosmeceutical products are clinically proven to penetrate the skin, and address your skin concerns at cellular level.

All of our skin consultations include the recommendation of cosmeceutical skin care. Our Dermal Clinicians provide clients with a tailored skin care program specifically designed to address the needs of male skin.
