Cosmetology for men in Slavuta

Facial and back cleansing and peels

Men most often come in about blackheads on the nose, forehead and cheekbones, oily shine and breakouts on the face and back. Pores get clogged with sebum, dust and dead skin cells, and washing usually doesn’t clear the dense plugs. That’s what facial cleansing is for. You can’t clean your own back properly, so it’s done as part of our body treatments, and for breakouts the cosmetologist uses special peeling products. The differences between facial cleansing types are explained in our article which facial cleansing to choose. After the treatment, the specialist will explain how to care for your skin at home and pick products for your skin type.

Chemical peels are recommended for uneven skin texture, clogged pores and oiliness. A cosmetic doctor chooses the peel after examining your skin. If you take isotretinoin for acne or finished a course less than six months ago, say so: a medium-depth peel usually isn’t done in that case.

When there are many breakouts that hurt and leave scars, a cosmetologist can help with skincare, but treatment is prescribed by a dermatologist. Why acne develops and what not to do at home is explained in our article what acne is. Scars left by acne are treated with plasma lifting.

Botulinum toxin for wrinkles and sweating

Men have botulinum toxin injections for expression lines on the forehead and the bridge of the nose. They often ask to get rid of the vertical frown line between the brows, which makes the face look stern, and to keep the brows straight. Botulinum toxin is also injected for excessive sweating of the palms, feet or forehead, when antiperspirants don’t help and a damp palm makes shaking hands awkward. Men’s facial muscles are usually stronger, so the dose may be higher than for women. A cosmetic doctor calculates it at the consultation. For wrinkles, the effect usually lasts 3–4 months, and longer for sweating.

Facial and scalp mesotherapy

Facial mesotherapy is done to support skin tone and a healthy complexion. Men have scalp mesotherapy when their hair is thinning. The doctor first finds out why the hair is falling out: in men it’s often hereditary hair loss, but iron deficiency or thyroid disease can also be the cause. Whether the treatment makes sense depends on the cause. If needed, the doctor will order tests, which you can have done at the clinic’s own Diagnost-Lab laboratory. If your hair falls out in patches, round bald spots appear, or your scalp itches and flakes, see a dermatologist first.

Papilloma removal and ingrown hairs

Papillomas on the face and body are removed at the Viva Clinic aesthetic medicine center at 16b/3 Kuzovkova St. The doctor examines the growth first. If it grows quickly, bleeds, itches or changes color, show it to a dermatologist. Don’t tie off or cut papillomas at home: it can easily cause bleeding or an infection.

If you often get ingrown hairs after shaving, ask a cosmetic doctor about laser hair removal. The laser acts on the hair follicle, so after a course less hair grows, and there are usually fewer ingrown hairs too.
