Masculinization

The process
At Ageworth, a treatment with botulinum toxin and fillers always begins with a personal consultation. One of our doctors will discuss your goals, desires, and needs prior to the treatment. We study your anatomy and determine the precise areas of your face to treat, as well as the appropriate amounts of botulinum toxin and fillers. Each Masculinization treatment is completely customized. The amount of product and the desired outcome are tailored to factors such as your age and appearance, allowing us to reveal the best version of yourself with fillers and muscle relaxants. If you agree with the treatment plan, the procedure can be scheduled, optionally immediately after the consultation.

The treatment
Every injectable treatment starts with thorough cleansing and disinfection of the skin. The cosmetic doctor then marks the injection points based on the treatment plan. Fillers are administered using a needle or a blunt cannula, depending on the treatment area and your skin type. Botulinum toxin is injected using an ultra-fine needle. After the filler injections, the area is gently massaged to ensure even distribution. After the treatment, you will receive comprehensive aftercare tips to maximize the longevity of your results. On average, Masculinization takes approximately 60 minutes (including the consultation).

Aftercare
There is no recovery time required after a Masculinization treatment, and you can resume your daily activities immediately. However, your skin may appear slightly red and sensitive due to the injections. In some cases, small bruises may occur after filler use, which typically resolve within a few days. Avoid visiting the gym, sunbed, or sauna for the first week following the treatment. Wait at least two weeks before visiting a beautician. UV radiation can accelerate skin damage in the treated area, so it is important to minimize sun exposure and always apply a sunscreen with a minimum SPF 30. Applying a nourishing (scar) cream can help expedite the skin’s recovery after an injectable treatment.

Duration of Results
The results of Masculinization are typically visible for six to twelve months on average. The body naturally breaks down the fillers and muscle relaxants over time. The duration of the effect varies per individual and depends on factors such as your skin type and lifestyle. If desired, a follow-up treatment can be arranged.
