The male cosmetic population has been more timid over the years for procedures for facial rejuvenation. Only with the advent of minimally invasive procedures such as Botox and fillers have men begun to participate in cosmetic treatments. Men come with esthetic needs and areas of treatment different from women and require a different array of injectable fillers for each of these problems. Wrinkle ablation, volumization, and sculpting facial contours are procedures with the various agents available.
