Men's Skin Health: The Unspoken Truths

 

For decades, the wellness industry has associated skincare and skin treatments with women, while exercise supplements and athletic activities get marketed towards mainly men. It’s 2023, and we are over that stigma – wellness is for everyone. 

There are some physical activities advertised to women, but the same cannot be said about men and general skin health. We all have the same skin, regardless of gender. Everyone deserves to have healthy, smooth, youthful skin. In this blog, we’ll cover two amazing treatments for men’s overall skin health, MOXI + BBL Laser and SkinVive by Juvéderm – plus other benefits that come with men’s skin care.

MOXI + BBL Laser For Men

This dynamic laser duo is the key for unveiling smooth, youthful skin. Did you spend your summer in the sun, on the lake, or out on the green? Whatever outdoor activities you participated in most likely left behind sun damage and brought out signs of aging. Thankfully, these quick and gentle laser treatments can reverse those visible signs of aging! 

What are BBL + MOXI Lasers & How do they Work?

Moxi is a gentle laser treatment that promotes collagen production and skin rejuvenation. It is designed to address common skin issues like fine lines, sun damage, pigmentation irregularities, and even acne scars. Moxi delivers controlled laser energy to the skin, creating microscopic channels that stimulate the body's natural healing process.

BBL Lasers use pulsed light technology to treat a wide range of skin concerns. It can effectively target sun damage, age spots, redness, and uneven skin tone. BBL works by emitting specific wavelengths of light that penetrate the skin's surface, breaking down unwanted pigments and stimulating collagen production.

What are the Benefits of BBL & MOXI Lasers for Men?

This laser pairing offers many amazing, yet subtle benefits. If you’re new to med spa treatments and want natural results that won’t make it look like you’ve had work done, Laser is a great place to start. Other benefits include:

  • Improved Skin Texture: Some men struggle with uneven skin texture due to factors like shaving and exposure to dry climates. Moxi and BBL treatments can help smooth out the skin's surface, reducing the appearance of roughness and creating a more youthful complexion.

  • Sun Damage Repair: If you spend time on the golf course, boating, or generally being active outside, odds are you’ve encountered sun overexposure. Overexposure to the sun's harmful UV rays can cause sunspots, freckles, and redness. Moxi and BBL treatments target and break down the pigments responsible for these issues, helping to restore a more even skin tone.

  • No Downtime: One of the significant advantages of Moxi and BBL treatments is that they are noninvasive and require no downtime. You can get in and get out often in under an hour with no need to change your schedule to recover! Schedule your treatments during your lunch break or on a weekend without disrupting your daily routine.

  • Quick and Convenient: Both Moxi and BBL treatments are relatively quick, usually taking between 20 minutes to an hour, depending on the area being treated. 

  • Long-Lasting Results: While multiple sessions may be required for optimal results, the benefits of Moxi and BBL treatments can last for months to years. This longevity ensures that you can enjoy healthier, more youthful-looking skin over an extended period of time.

Benefits of Men’s Skin Care

Outside of specific med spa treatments, there are an infinite number of benefits that come from caring for your skin overall. A daily skincare routine, boosting collagen through SkinVive, and removing impurities with Laser will unlock a new world of confidence for any guy out there.

  • Confidence Boost: One of the most immediate benefits of maintaining good skin health for is the boost in confidence it provides. Healthy, clear skin can help you feel better about yourself and your appearance. When you feel confident in your skin, it can positively impact various aspects of your life, from social interactions to professional success.

  • Protection Against Aging: Skin aging is a natural process that affects everyone, regardless of gender. Men might be less likely to discuss it openly, but that doesn’t mean they don’t care about developing wrinkles and sun spots. 

    A proper skincare routine can help delay the signs of aging, such as wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots. Using products with sunscreen and antioxidants can protect your skin from the harmful effects of UV rays and free radicals, both of which accelerate the aging process.

  • Healthy Skin, Healthy Body: The condition of your skin often reflects your overall health. Skin issues, such as acne, eczema, and psoriasis, can be early indicators of underlying health problems. By paying attention to your skin's health, you may identify and address potential health concerns before they become more serious. Additionally, a good skincare routine promotes better hygiene, which is essential for overall well-being.

  • Sun Protection: Skin cancer is a real threat, and it doesn't discriminate based on gender. Men, just like women, need to protect their skin from the harmful effects of the sun. Regular use of sunscreen is crucial in preventing skin cancer and reducing the risk of sun damage.
