You may feel that cosmetic surgery is only for women, but you’d be wrong. Men care about their skincare just as much as women do, and are seeking new and innovative ways of taking care of their bodies. Whether you’ve been taking care of your skin properly for years or seeking a new skincare routine, read on to find some great tips and tricks. If you feel that your skincare isn’t enough, though, laser skin tightening may be the next step to help keep your skin firm and younger. Wymore Laser & Anti-Aging Medicine in Orlando, Florida, can help you achieve the look you want.
The Basics
If you want to improve your skin the old fashioned way before turning to cosmetic surgery, there are a few essentials you’ll want to tackle in order to improve your skin’s texture. One such method is keeping your face clean by washing it twice daily and after any strenuous exercise. Regular facial cleaning can help reduce the amount of clogged pores by removing excess oils and buildup on a daily basis. It’s also important to know what your skin’s type is, generally speaking, to help pick the right cleanser for your skin. Is your skin already oily to begin with? Is it more matte, or dry, or maybe a combination of a few different types? Picking a facial cleanser may seem superfluous, but it’s key in getting the right amount of cleanser to your face to remove oil and debris without overdrying, as typical body washes and soaps may do if you use them instead. After cleaning your face, use a moisturizer with at least a SPF of 50, to help protect your skin from harmful UV rays. A cream or lotion moisturizer will also help hydrate your skin, reduce skin flaking and overproduction of oils from stripped skin.
Men’s Skincare
It may seem like a lot of extra steps to ensure good skin, but facial skin is sensitive and needs protection from the day-to-day grind. None of that is more important than when it comes to shaving, which can be very aggressive to your skin’s cells, depending on your shaving technique. Ensure you are using the right razor for your skin, and change the blades regularly, ideally every six to eight uses, to improve your skin’s texture and overall health. Even using the right shaving cream and aftershave can help keep your skin fresher and robust longer. When you shave, the razor is pressing and dragging into your skin, taking away not only hair but also your skin’s natural oils and the skin cells itself, whether the skin was old or new. Plus, the more blades you use, the more skin and oil will be lost. Researching different shaving techniques and which one might be better for your skin type can help to improve your skin’s texture and overall health, maintaining a more youthful appearance without the bumps and razor burn.
Another Option
If you’ve been taking care of your skin regularly for a while now and haven’t seen the results you had hoped for, there are cosmetic surgery options available as well. You may balk at such surgeries, but it’s not just for the ladies. Since 2000, the number of men getting cosmetic surgeries has increased by 29%, with an average of 1.3 million surgeries performed in 2018 on men only. And after you hit 30, your body slows down the production of collagen and elastin, leaving your skin less toned, firm, and plump as the years go by. Laser skin tightening is a great, non-invasive, non-surgical and painless way of treating loose and wrinkly skin, all with the power of heating lasers. Skin tightening can work on almost any part of the body, taking years off of your appearance. The procedure will have gradual results, and may need additional treatments to achieve full results, but with little to no downtime, it’s a breeze.
