As of November 3, 2023, Clarity will no longer be offering CoolSculpting. While we pride ourselves on offering the latest and most effective aesthetic treatments, our space at the Dollhouse is limited. This change will allow us to shift our focus entirely towards anti-aging and skin rejuvenation treatments for our patients. We appreciate your understanding. — Kati and the Clarity team
Let’s be honest here for a second. When you hear the words “aesthetic treatments,” what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Typically, most people equate aesthetic treatments with women desiring a more youthful appearance. While we do see a lot of women, men are undergoing treatments too. In 2017, over 1.1 million men had minimally invasive procedures performed and 214,434 surgical procedures done. While men only make up 13% of the total number of procedures performed, these numbers are three times higher than they were in 1997. The taboo is disappearing. Men, especially over the age of 50, are starting to take steps to stop the aging process. Their reasons aren’t to look super young though. Their goal is generally to look more relaxed and rested. With today’s advances in non-surgical aesthetic treatments, we have the tools to deliver subtle, natural enhancements that preserve a masculine look.
1. Botox®/Dysport®/Xeomin®/Jeuveau™
These are all injectable treatments that are also known as wrinkle modulators. They involve the use of a purified protein that works to temporarily suspend muscle movements at the locations where they are injected. Strategically placed, these toxins are able to soften crow’s feet, relax forehead lines, and ease 11’s (the lines that appear between your eyebrows). Treatments are quick, typically only taking about 15 minutes to complete. They are virtually painless and there’s no downtime. It takes about 2 to 10 days for wrinkle modulators to take effect and results last anywhere from 3 to 6 months.
2. Hair Treatments
Some men have unwanted hair. Others are losing hair and want to get it back. We offer solutions to meet both of these needs. Laser hair removal is done to eliminate hair where you don’t want it (such as your ears, back, or unibrow). Instead of waxing, shaving, or plucking, our laser offers permanent hair reduction. Laser light passes through the skin and is absorbed into the hair follicle where it is turned into heat. The heat disables the follicle, preventing new hair growth.
For those looking to regrow hair, we offer PRP with microneedling to awaken sluggish hair follicles and encourage hair regrowth. PRP is a procedure that involves using a small sample of your own blood. Your blood contains platelets, which contain growth factors that aid in tissue healing and regeneration. Microneedling involves controlled skin perforation to trigger the body’s own natural healing response. Done on the scalp, both can help to encourage regrowth of your hair.
3. IPL and Anti-aging Lasers
IPL, or intense pulse light, is the gold standard treatment for treating skin discoloration, hyperpigmentation, rosacea, generalized redness, and removing broken capillaries from the face (and body). It uses a broad spectrum of light that we specifically filter to treat wider surface areas.
Anti-aging lasers such as our Cutera and Quanta are so advanced their settings (or wavelengths) can be changed to treatment a wide variety of skin types Laser treatments work by stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles as well as improving skin tone.

4. Dermal Fillers
Dermal fillers are injectable treatments that are placed to fill areas of volume loss. There are many different types of filler – some you may have heard of like Juvederm®, Restylane®, Radiesse®, Voluma and Sulptra®. Why so many? The answer is each dermal filler has a unique consistency and molecule size. This is important because each problem area such as undereye hollows, a weak chin, and smile lines require filler to be placed at different depths under the skin. But you don’t need to wonder which filler to use, just leave that to a skilled injector like Kati. During your personal in-depth facial assessment with Kati, she will select the right fillers to help you achieve your desired goals.
5. CoolSculpting®
Guys, you exercise and eat right, and despite all your efforts as you age you may notice pockets of unwanted fat that just won’t go away. Pesky love handles appear, maybe double chin stares at you in the mirror or you no longer see your six pack.. CoolSculpting® can help. CoolSculpting® offers a non-surgical alternative to liposuction that gets rid of the unwanted fat for good. It works by freezing the fat cells, which destroys them. Your body then naturally flushes the cells out. Once they’re gone, they’re gone for good. The results become noticeable about 3 weeks after your treatment, with the most dramatic results becoming evident about 3 months after treatment. You may even continue to see additional results 3 to 4 months later as your body continues to get rid of dead fat cells.
