Genesis Health Institute – DR. FERDINAND CABRERA
Why do you think Men’s Self-Care is so important?
Promoting men’s self-care is crucial to overall health and wellbeing. Often overlooked, self-care encompasses more than just physical health—it embraces mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness. Embracing self-care routines, such as skin care, nutrition, fitness, and mental health practices, is not just about aesthetics but also a commitment to longevity and disease prevention.
This comprehensive approach aligns seamlessly with functional medicine’s philosophy of understanding the body as a complex, interrelated system. Aesthetic procedures boost confidence. Along with them, maintaining a healthy lifestyle can prevent chronic diseases, manage stress, and enhance productivity.
Men’s self-care is not a luxury but a necessity for a balanced and fulfilling life. Men’s self-care is an essential aspect of living fully and healthily, supporting a life of vitality, productivity, and sustained wellbeing.
What’s the newest innovation in your field for Men’s Self Care?
Regenerative Aesthetics is the newest innovation in men’s self-care. Regenerative Aesthetics represents an advanced branch of medicine that merges aesthetic treatments with regenerative medicine’s principles. This discipline focuses on stimulating the body’s natural healing processes to enhance and restore physical appearance. The approach utilizes biologically active substances, such as stem cells, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and growth factors, that are either derived from the patient’s own body or biocompatible sources.
Rather than relying on synthetic fillers or surgical interventions, regenerative aesthetics addresses signs of aging or damage by boosting the body’s inherent capacity for repair and renewal. This approach can be applied to a range of concerns from skin rejuvenation, hair restoration, to overall body contouring. Regenerative aesthetics signifies a promising advance in the field of men’s self-care, providing natural, sustainable, and potentially longer-lasting results, thus exemplifying a shift towards a more holistic approach in the pursuit of beauty and health.

Natura Dermatology & Cosmetics – Dr Will Richardson
Why do you think Men’s Self Care is so important?
Men’s Self Care is critical as we age. Many times, the tendency is to put ourselves last by nature focusing on caring for others, especially partners or family members as they age. I see this all the time in my clinic when couples and caregivers come into the office and share that they have been dealing with their family, or their spouse or significant others. The story goes the same consistently that they’ve been dealing with an delaying addressing their skin health whether it is a lesion that has been changing and results in being a skin cancer that was neglected, or uncontrolled inflammatory skin diseases like eczema or psoriasis that allows for staph and other bacterial infections, or simply not having a cosmetic enhancement procedure that will provide mental nurturing and resolve restoring their ability to care for others. It is so important for us to understand and embrace what science has documented in numerous studies: what you say about what and who you see when you look in the mirror truly impacts the rate at which you age and your overall well-being.
What’s the newest innovation in your field for Men’s Self Care?
This is one of my favorite questions to address as there is a technology available that is patented called high frequency electromagnetic stimulation (HIFEM). Essentially studies have shown using patented BTL Aesthetic platforms such as EmsculptNeo, Emsella, and Emface can stimulate stem cells in muscle fibers to permanently differentiate into functional muscle mass! This is huge when you take into consideration what happens as we age. Aging results in a loss of muscle mass and resting tone. This is detrimental to your health as studies show that your vitality is directly correlated to muscle mass as you age. Many people are unable to use performance-enhancing supplements or have mobility issues preventing them from a regular gym routine. With these technologies we can increase muscle mass in 12 muscles regions in the human body adding 25% more muscle mass that can result in improved tone, greater agility, stability preventing falls, and reduced nighttime urination and incontinence that can occur as we age. We can treat biceps, triceps, anterior and lateral abdominal muscles (which improving core tone reduces back pain), circumferential thigh muscles improving gait, calf muscles, the pelvic floor muscles to improve tone to the anus, reduce incontinence and enhance ejaculatory force, and most recently facial muscles allowing for lifting and redraping of the jowls and neck skin. This technology will permanently alter history in that we now have a choice in how much stability we have as we age.

Loria Medical – Dr Victor Loria
Why do you think Men’s Self Care is so important?
Men are traditionally taught to be stoic and strong when faced with difficult situations, rather than taking the time to practice self-care. However, this outdated notion of masculinity is doing more harm than good.
Self-care is not a luxury – it’s a necessity. It gives us the chance to practice positive habits, unwind from stress, and take some time to look after ourselves, there are plenty of simple and affordable ways to practice self-care every day. From getting enough sleep and eating nutritious meals, to spending quality time with family and friends, these are all forms of self-care that can have a positive impact on our mental and physical wellbeing.
By practicing positive self-care habits, we can ensure that we stay healthy and happy in body, mind, and spirit.
Taking time out for self-care also gives men a chance to check in with themselves and reconnect with their feelings and values. This can lead to increased feelings of fulfillment, joy, and contentment.
We think that self-care for men is essential for their overall health and wellbeing. It can help them feel more energized, better able to cope with stress, improve their mental health and give them a greater sense of purpose.
