Facial Treatments That Are Safe for People With Facial Hair

As more men embrace the benefits of medical aesthetics, it becomes increasingly clear that men have unique concerns when it comes to cosmetic procedures. As a man, you want to augment and preserve your physical appearance so you can look and feel your best for life—but you may be wondering how aesthetic treatments fit into your usual grooming routine, especially if you have facial hair. Here’s the low-down on which treatments are safe for you and can even improve the health and appearance of your beard. 

Take Your Grooming Practice to a Higher Level

These days, more men are putting importance on having a strong face game. Looking good, having healthy skin, and slowing the signs of aging are all reasons to start considering aesthetic treatments. This focus on appearance comes from a competitive job market, the rise of social media and wanting to look good in pictures, and the growing number of male celebrities who have had enhancements. Most of all, men want to feel confident and comfortable in their own skin. Exercise, diet, and a good skin care routine are all essential to putting your best face—and facial hair—forward. Non-invasive aesthetic treatments elevate your current routine with advanced science that gets you looking your best, without the downtime and risks of a surgical procedure. Taking care of your appearance has limitless benefits—including giving you a leg up in the job market—but most important is loving what you see when you look in the mirror.

Why Skin Care Is Important for Facial Hair

For a healthy-looking beard, start by taking care of the skin beneath it. The right skin care can prevent problems like dry skin, acne, dandruff, ingrown hairs, and itching. Here are four simple steps to follow to keep the skin under your beard healthy: 

1. Wash your face and beard every day. Washing removes the dirt, oils, germs, pollution, and dead skin cells that build up on your beard and skin so they don’t clog your pores and irritate your skin. Use a gentle cleanser instead of soap for best results. 

2. Moisturize and protect from the sun. Daily moisturizing can help soften the skin, condition the hair, and prevent flaking and ingrown hairs. Apply an SPF daily to protect your skin from sun damage and photoaging.

3. Exfoliate gently. If ingrown hairs are an issue, exfoliating regularly will help resolve them. Use a gentle scrub or chemical exfoliant once or twice a week, applying moisturizer immediately afterward to prevent dryness.

4. Trim and shave. Keep the hair in good shape by trimming and shaving as your style requires. To prevent irritated skin, apply a shaving oil, cream, or gel before trimming your beard and use an electric razor to trim it. If you have longer facial hair, you can also use scissors to trim. If you shave, make sure to change your razor every 5-7 shaves. 

Aesthetic Treatments for Healthy Facial Hair 

Even the best skin care routine can fall short when it comes to facial hair. Because hair acts as a natural barrier, your efforts may be lost as products fail to penetrate the skin under your beard. Facial hair will only be as healthy as the skin underneath it. Imagine you’re painting a masterpiece—you want the canvas to be strong, firm, and fresh. Here are the aesthetic treatments that will help you achieve your best facial hair look: 

Tribella Treatments 

TriBella™ combines three of our most popular aesthetic technologies into one treatment. First, a photofacial reduces sun damage and fades discoloration for a brighter complexion. Then, an anti-aging treatment erases fine lines and wrinkles for a firmer, more youthful look. Finally, a skin resurfacing treatment smoothes out imperfections and improves the texture of the skin. The treatments boost the skin’s natural production of collagen and elastin for an overall firmer, brighter, and more youthful appearance. 

Skin Tightening Treatments 

To treat lax skin and reveal a tighter, firmer jawline, Non-surgical skin tightening treatments use radio frequency energy to rejuvenate the appearance of skin by safely and comfortably heating the tissue under the skin's surface. This triggers the natural production of collagen and elastin while also shrinking the volume of fat cells. The result is effortlessly tighter, smoother, and younger-looking skin, giving the face a firmer, sculpted appearance.

Wrinkle Reduction Treatments 

Wrinkle reduction treatments fight current signs of aging and prevent new ones from forming by delivering targeted radio frequency energy deep below the skin’s surface to stimulate skin cell renewal and promote increased collagen and elastin production. Instead of adding a foreign substance like fillers to your body, they use heat to boost your skin’s natural processes, supporting skin health from the inside out. Quick and effective, wrinkle reduction treatments fade fine lines, restoring firmer, more youthful-looking skin. 

Skin Resurfacing Treatments 

Venus Concept's skin resurfacing treatments are powered by advanced radio frequency technology to safely correct signs of skin damage, improving the appearance of scars, visible pores, deep wrinkles, stretch marks, and uneven skin texture. They effectively reduce signs of skin damage and improve the appearance of uneven skin texture and are safe for all shades of skin. With just a couple of quick sessions, you'll notice a naturally smoother, more radiant, and healthier-looking complexion that lasts
