Men Skin Rejuvenation - Maryland (MD)

Men Skin Rejuvenation
Sun damage and aging can cause our face to become dull and sallow. Dark blotches, fine lines and other changes begin to appear. Wanting more, men skin rejuvenation procedures can achieve the youthful skin you're looking for.

For a men skin rejuvenation procedure Dr. Mausner uses gentle glycolic acid made from naturally occurring sugar cane to rejuvenate the facial skin. This alpha-hydroxy peel will remove the dead layers of the skin that have built up over time, clean out the deep pores, tighten large pores and stimulate collagen formation...that essence of youthful skin! Together he will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the Facial Rejuvenation Peel Program and determine the best treatment for you.

Who is a good candidate for men skin rejuvenation?
Men who have:

fine lines and wrinkles
uneven pigmentation
dark pigmentation
shallow acne scars
sun damaged skin
age spots

During your consultation, it is a good idea to mention any history of viral infections, sensitivity to the sun, or prior skin treatments such as dermabrasion or Accutane treatments within the past six months.

What skin conditions can a men skin rejuvenation peel improve?

Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven pigmentation
Dark pigmentation
Shallow acne scars
Sun-damaged skin
Age spots

A chemical peel is not a substitute for a facelift. It cannot eliminate excessive or lax skin. But in many cases a chemical peel is performed in conjunction with these procedures.

What types of peels are available?
The two most common men skin rejuvenation chemical peels performed at Mausner Plastic Surgery Center are TCA and glycolic acid peels. Trichloracetic acid (TCA) Peels are deeper peels used to soften deeper lines and wrinkles, treat surface acne scars and even out pigmentation. The Facial Rejuvenation Peel Program uses gentle fruit acids to exfoliate the skin, clean out pores, tighten pore size and stimulate healthy, young skin to flourish.

What is the men skin rejuvenation treatment like?
Your plastic surgeon can treat the face, neck, chest, hands and even the arms and legs. When the peel solution is applied to the skin, a mild tingling is felt on the skin. This quickly dissipates when the peel is neutralized. Both peels:

are performed in our office
require no anesthesia or needles
have no post-procedure discomfort
return immediately to your day-to-day activities.

What should you expect after men skin rejuvenation treatment?
Reactions to chemical peels are similar to a sunburn and range from mild to more pronounced. Generally, the deeper the peel, the deeper the irritation. With the Facial Rejuvenation Peel Program ("Lunchtime" Peel) you can return to work immediately after and no one will be able to tell that you've just had a peel. The deeper TCA Peel causes some redness, and possibly some flaking for a few days.

Any care required afterward the men skin rejuvenation treatment?
Because the Facial Rejuvenation Peel Program is part of a comprehensive Skin Rejuvenation Program, following the in-office peel you will again return to the Daily Skin Care Maintenance products. Following a TCA peel you will need to apply Acquaphor to the treated areas. After 3 days you will use cortisone cream twice a day for 10 days. Moisturizers will be used to improve the look and feel of the skin. Following a chemical peel, your new skin will be tighter and smoother.

Cleaner, healthier, more youthful skin is only weeks away!
