What is Non-Surgical Facial Masculinization?
Non-surgical facial masculinization is an aesthetic procedure that uses dermal fillers, primarily hyaluronic acid, to accentuate and define features traditionally associated with masculinity. It focuses on key areas such as the jawline, chin, and cheekbones. The goal is to create a more angular and defined facial structure, always respecting facial harmony.
This treatment is performed by board-certified medical doctors and aims for a natural result that enhances the underlying bone structure. It does not involve surgery, meaning there are no incisions or a prolonged recovery period. An initial assessment by a medical professional is essential to determine the suitability of the treatment.
How Does the Treatment Work?
At Santé Clínica Estética, facial masculinization is carried out by precisely injecting high-density hyaluronic acid into strategic points of the jawline, chin, and cheekbones. Hyaluronic acid is a biocompatible substance naturally found in our body. Its function is to provide volume and structure.
Before any injection, our doctors perform a thorough facial evaluation and personalized design. In cases where the anatomy requires it, ultrasound guidance is used to ensure safe and precise placement of the product. This minimizes risks and optimizes results.
Key Treatment Areas
- Jawline: The aim is to define and project the mandibular angle, creating a more marked and square line.
- Chin: Chin projection and definition are enhanced for a stronger, more balanced profile.
- Cheekbones: The structure of the cheekbones is enhanced to create greater facial width and a more robust appearance.
Who is an Ideal Candidate for Facial Masculinization?
This treatment is indicated for men who wish to improve the definition of their facial features without resorting to surgery. It is suitable for those with an undefined jawline, a recessed chin, or flat cheekbones. It is also an option for those seeking a more mature and masculine appearance.
Our doctors individually assess each case to ensure that the patient's expectations are realistic and that the treatment is the most appropriate. The patient's general health and the absence of contraindications are determining factors. The goal is always a harmonious result with the rest of the facial features.
What to Expect During and After the Procedure?
The injection session lasts approximately 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the areas to be treated. Before the injections, a topical anesthetic cream is applied to minimize any discomfort. Discomfort during the procedure is usually mild and tolerable.
After the treatment, it is normal to experience slight swelling, redness, or small bruises in the treated areas. These effects usually disappear within a few days. It is recommended to avoid intense exercise and direct sun exposure for the first 24-48 hours.
Results are visible immediately, although the final effect is best appreciated once the swelling has subsided. The duration of the results varies depending on the type of hyaluronic acid used, the patient's metabolism, and the treated area. Generally, effects can last between 12 and 18 months.
