Facial attractiveness is characterised by a combination of factors that involve symmetry and proportions that are deemed aesthetically pleasing, according to a number of sources listed in the table below. Before performing any facial enhancing procedures with dermal fillers, it is vital to analyse the patient’s face so that we:

​

Correctly identify the areas that need volumising

Respect the symmetry and proportions of the face

Our experience in treating male patients has led to the development of the ‘XY Lift’, which describes the injection techniques of dermal fillers into the seven zones of the male face, where volume deficiencies are commonly found. This technique comprises seven single techniques, one for each zone, which are:

​

Temple

Cheek

Eye region

Base of nose 

Corner of mouth

Chin

Angle of the jaw

​​

The aesthetic approach to treating a male face differs significantly to that of a female face.

When it comes to male facial aesthetics, the XY Lift can help enhance the masculinity of the visage, and in our experience of performing treatments using this technique, it also minimises the risks of complications and feminisation of the face.

These techniques are used widely within the aesthetics specialty and are considered safe.

Dermal filler can last up to 18 months.
