FAC Facts the A man’s guide to looking younger BY JOHN RENUCCI, MD, FACS More men are focused on looking better Ok men, let’s be honest with ourselves: We really do care about getting old and we care about how we look. According to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, over 950,000 procedures were performed on men in 2012, an increase of 18% from 2011. The data also shows that non-surgical procedures enjoyed the most significant gain of 21.5%. These include botox, hair removal and hyaluronic acid fillers (570,000 procedures) I can attest to the success of these procedures as I perform them every day in my office. These are proven treatments that counter the effects of aging and damage that has already taken a toll on our skin. Now that we can admit that we care about how our skin looks, logically we should shift our focus toward prevention. Don’t worry, prevention should not by synonymous with inconvenience, hassle, or expense. Think of the terms “simple” and “efficient”. Skin care for men can and should be simple Let’s focus on hydration and protection. A simple, underutilized form of prevention is the daily use of a well-selected facial moisturizer. Even though men have thicker skin than women and the testosterone in our systems stimulates more oil production from our sebaceous glands, daily cleansing and shaving can strip our skin of both moisture and natural oils that help to protect it. Water in the skin is an important structural component for maintaining plump, smooth skin. Regular use of a facial moisturizer can fortify our natural skin barrier and replenish the natural hydration elements in the outer layers of our skin thereby reducing the occurrence of dry, scaly, susceptible skin.

More men are focused on looking better<br />

Ok men, let’s be honest with ourselves: We really do care about getting old and we<br />

care about how we look. According to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic<br />

Surgery, over 950,000 procedures were performed on men in 2012, an increase of<br />

18% from 2011. <strong>The</strong> data also shows that non-surgical procedures enjoyed the most<br />

significant gain of 21.5%. <strong>The</strong>se include botox, hair removal and hyaluronic acid fillers<br />

(570,000 procedures) I can attest to the success of these procedures as I perform<br />

them every day in my office. <strong>The</strong>se are proven treatments that counter the effects of<br />

aging and damage that has already taken a toll on our skin. Now that we can admit<br />

that we care about how our skin looks, logically we should shift our focus toward prevention.<br />

Don’t worry, prevention should not by synonymous with inconvenience, hassle,<br />

or expense. Think of the terms “simple” and “efficient”.<br />

Skin care for men can and should be simple<br />

Let’s focus on hydration and protection. A simple, underutilized form of prevention is<br />

the daily use of a well-selected facial moisturizer. Even though men have thicker skin<br />
