For men
I enhance the features a man already has, with a more defined jawline, a more prominent chin and rested-looking eyes, in a discreet way.

Quick answer
Male facial harmonization is the set of treatments that enhances the features of a man's face without changing his appearance. The most common requests are a more defined jawline, a more prominent chin and more rested-looking eyes. I use fillers, botulinum toxin and technologies, in doses and at points designed for male anatomy. Duration varies with each treatment, and the plan comes out of the consultation.
It used to be believed that harmonization was a female world, and today that has changed. The men who come to me take care of their face not out of vanity, but for the way they come across: they want a more striking face. And almost all of them arrive with the same request, which is discretion.
A man does not want to change his features, he wants to enhance them. In practice, that usually means a more defined jawline, a more prominent chin and more rested-looking eyes, free of dark circles. The male face has larger, stronger muscles, which may call for different doses of toxin, and the shape men are after is a straighter, more defined jawline. That is why I do not use the same plan on a man that I use on a woman.
Harmonization is not something to rush, and with men I like to build gradually. With one patient, we started with a technology, ultrasound, to prepare the tissues, and only then did the contouring, and his face became more striking in a natural way. If you want a natural, masculine result, together we will assess what makes sense for your face.
Cases published on my Instagram. Disclosure follows Brazilian Federal Council of Dentistry (CFO) Resolution 196/2019. Results vary from person to person and depend on individual evaluation.
Aftercare depends on what went into your plan. After injectables, swelling, bruising, tenderness and some temporary asymmetry are common in the first few days, and it is worth scheduling the procedure away from important commitments. There are rare complications, including vascular ones, that need to be recognized and treated promptly, which is why the procedures must be performed by a qualified practitioner with knowledge of anatomy. Let me know beforehand about allergies, medical conditions, any medication you take regularly and procedures you have already had on your face. Results vary from person to person, and the indication comes out of the consultation.
The male face has larger, stronger muscles, which may call for different doses of botulinum toxin, and the shape men are after is different, with a straighter, more defined jawline. That is why I do not use the same plan on a man that I use on a woman. What I want is to enhance the features that are already yours and keep the face masculine.
The idea is a natural result, where the face looks more defined and rested without drawing attention to the procedure. Discretion and naturalness are the requests I hear most from men, and I plan the amounts with that in mind. Even so, swelling and bruising may appear in the first few days, and it is worth planning ahead.
It depends on your concern and on what I find at the consultation. With some patients I start with a technology, such as ultrasound, to prepare the tissues, and only then do the chin and jawline contouring. Harmonization is not something to rush, and the plan can be done in stages.
The price depends on the plan, which comes out of the consultation. It changes depending on the areas and the treatments that make sense for your face.
