Non-Surgical Procedures for Men in Baltimore
Not every improvement requires surgery. For many men, the right injectable treatment provides a sharper, more rested appearance without altering their facial character or requiring time off work. At her Baltimore practice, Dr. Michele Shermak offers discreet, non-surgical solutions that help men look like the best version of themselves.
Whether you want to smooth frown lines, restore lost volume, or define your jawline, Dr. Shermak uses advanced injectable techniques tailored specifically for the male face. You’ll leave looking rested, confident, and refreshed without looking “done.”
The male face ages differently from the female face. Volume loss tends to show in the midface and jawline, and dynamic wrinkles in the brow and forehead can create a tired or tense appearance.
Non-surgical treatments, such as Botox and dermal fillers, offer a subtle way to combat these changes without the need for surgery or downtime.
For men, the goal isn’t to erase every line. It’s to look healthier, more energized, and more capable, especially in professional and social settings. Dr. Shermak focuses on preserving masculine facial structure while softening the signs of age.
Most injectable treatments take 20–30 minutes and are done right in the office. There’s no need for anesthesia or downtime, and most patients return to work immediately.
Botox is injected into targeted facial muscles using a fine needle. It begins to relax those muscles within a few days, softening the look of dynamic wrinkles. Results last about 3 to 4 months.
Dermal fillers are used to restore volume, support structure, and improve facial contours. Dr. Shermak may apply a topical numbing agent before injection. Fillers provide instant results that typically last 6 to 18 months, depending on the product used.
Botox and dermal fillers are versatile tools in the hands of an experienced injector. Common concerns men address with these treatments include:
Dr. Shermak uses the full range of Juvederm® and Restylane® products, including options designed specifically for lifting, smoothing, or contouring the features.
Injectable treatments offer flexibility, discretion, and effective results, all under the care of a highly experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon who understands the nuances of male aesthetics.
With thoughtful technique and the right approach, non-surgical procedures offer men a way to enhance their appearance without dramatically altering their identity—or their schedule.
The biggest benefit? You still look like yourself. Whether it’s softening deep brow lines with Botox or restoring definition in the jawline with dermal fillers, the goal is subtle improvement. You won’t walk out looking “frozen” or overly plumped. Dr. Shermak tailors treatments to preserve the natural strength and character of your face, helping you look sharper, more rested, and more in control.
Most injectable treatments take less than 30 minutes and require no recovery time. You can come in during your lunch break and head back to work the same day—no bandages, no downtime, no interruptions.
When you look like the best version of yourself, you show up differently—in the boardroom, at social events, and even in day-to-day interactions. These procedures help reduce the signs of fatigue or age that might otherwise distract from your natural presence.
Dermal fillers can subtly enhance areas where structure has been lost over time—such as the cheeks, temples, or jawline—bringing your features back into better alignment without the need for surgery.
Not every man is ready for a surgical procedure. Injectables offer a low-commitment way to “test drive” a refreshed look, helping you build trust with your provider and get a better sense of what longer-lasting options might look like down the road.
Most men in good health who want to subtly refresh their appearance without downtime are excellent candidates for non-surgical treatments. During your consultation, Dr. Shermak will assess your facial structure, skin quality, and goals to create a plan that aligns with your lifestyle and preferences.
These treatments are especially popular with men who want to:
Most patients return to normal activities the same day as their treatment. Mild swelling, redness, or pinpoint bruising may occur at the injection sites, but these effects are typically short-lived and easy to conceal. Applying a cold pack and avoiding strenuous activity for the first 24 hours can help minimize swelling and reduce the risk of irritation.
With Botox, it may take 3 to 7 days to start noticing results, as the muscle activity gradually softens. Dermal fillers offer more immediate changes, with full results visible once any swelling resolves, usually within a few days. Men appreciate that these treatments offer a refreshed appearance without looking artificial or "done." For the best outcome, it’s advised to avoid alcohol, blood thinners, or pressing on treated areas right after injections. Dr. Shermak provides detailed aftercare guidance so you can maintain your natural, confident look with ease.
The benefits of Botox last 3–4 months. Regular Botox treatments address existing wrinkles while slowing the formation of new ones. Filler results are visible immediately and can last from 6-18 months depending on the product and area treated. The key with Dr. Shermak’s technique is balance. You won’t look overdone or “frozen.” Instead, you’ll look like yourself—just more rested, alert, and well-defined.
Dr. Michele Shermak is a board-certified plastic surgeon with over two decades of experience helping patients look and feel their best. Her male patients appreciate her discreet and honest approach, as well as the clarity she brings to every consultation.
Whether you’re just starting to explore aesthetic treatments or seeking an expert for more advanced care, Dr. Shermak offers a level of professionalism and skill that’s hard to find elsewhere.
Dr. Shermak performs all injectable treatments herself—not delegated to assistants or nurses—so you know you’re in expert hands from start to finish.
Not if it’s done well. Dr. Shermak’s technique focuses on subtle refinement, not dramatic change. Most people will just think you look rested or refreshed.
Botox usually lasts 3–4 months. With consistent treatments, results may begin to last longer.
Both are hyaluronic acid-based fillers. Dr. Shermak selects the right product based on the area being treated and the desired result. Some products provide better lift, while others provide better smoothness.
Most men tolerate Botox with little discomfort. Fillers may cause some pressure or mild swelling, but topical numbing is used when needed.
Wait 24 hours after Botox and 48 hours after fillers to resume intense exercise or exposure to heat.
Yes, many men combine these treatments to address different concerns and achieve more comprehensive rejuvenation.
