Strength, balance and definition for a sharper masculine appearance
Face contouring for men focuses on redefining the natural structure of the male face. Many men seek a stronger jawline, a more projected chin, more balanced cheeks or a cleaner lower face profile. With age or genetics, certain features may appear softer, rounder or less defined than desired. Modern contouring treatments reshape the key areas of the face to create a more sculpted and confident appearance while preserving natural expression.
At the practice of Dr. Matteo Vigo, male face contouring is approached with a clear understanding of masculine anatomy and proportions. The aim is not to add fullness or create exaggerated features, but to strengthen and refine the existing structure. Every plan is personalised to enhance balance and symmetry in a way that looks authentic and unmistakably masculine.
Why men seek face contouring
Men often choose face contouring to address one or more of the following:
- Weak or recessed chin
- Lack of jawline definition
- Fullness beneath the chin
- Flat or under projected cheeks
- Early signs of sagging
- Facial asymmetry
- A rounder facial shape than desired
Today, face contouring for men is one of the most requested aesthetic services because it can dramatically improve overall presence and facial harmony.
Understanding masculine features
The male face has distinct anatomical characteristics. These include:
- Stronger bone structure
- Straighter cheek lines
- A more angular jaw
- A lower brow
- Less prominence in the mid face
Treatments must respect these natural elements. Techniques used for women often do not translate well to male aesthetics. Dr. Vigo focuses on sharpening angles, correcting proportions and improving overall definition without compromising the natural masculine identity.
Chin enhancement for men
A well defined chin is one of the key elements of a masculine profile. Men with a recessed chin often feel their face appears softer or less structured. Chin enhancement can be achieved with fillers for a subtle improvement or with implants for a more permanent and prominent change.
The goal is to improve projection, bring balance to the lower face and create a stronger jawline. The result is a more confident and powerful facial structure.
Jawline contouring
Jawline contouring is one of the most sought after treatments for men. It creates the appearance of strength and athletic definition. Depending on the patient’s anatomy, options may include:
- Dermal fillers for structural definition
- Fat reduction under the chin to improve clarity
- Energy based tightening to refine the jawline
- Liposuction for precise shaping
A sharper jawline instantly enhances the overall masculinity of the face.
Cheek contouring for men
Male cheek contouring requires a different approach than for women. While women often seek lifted or rounded cheeks, men typically want more subtle shaping. The aim is to strengthen the mid face without creating excessive fullness.
Treatments may involve subtle filler placement to build structure rather than volume. This creates a more athletic look and enhances facial balance.
Lower face refinement
Ageing can cause heaviness around the mouth and jaw. Men may experience jowls, fullness or softening in the lower face. Contouring treatments help tighten and re sculpt this area for a cleaner and more defined appearance. Techniques may include fat reduction, skin tightening or a combination approach.
Non surgical facial slimming
Some men feel their face looks wide or rounded, often due to muscle bulk or fat distribution. Non surgical slimming helps create a more tapered and structured look. The lower face appears leaner and more distinctly shaped.
Creating a customised contouring plan
Dr. Matteo Vigo designs each contouring plan based on individual facial structure. During consultation, he considers:
- Bone shape
- Soft tissue thickness
- Skin quality
- Proportions of the upper, mid and lower face
- Profile balance
- Desired level of definition
A personalised approach ensures the result looks natural and enhances the patient’s own features rather than changing them entirely.
Results and expectations
Face contouring for men provides:
- A sharper lower face
- A more balanced profile
- Stronger chin and jaw definition
- Improved symmetry
- A more youthful and structured appearance
The face remains expressive and masculine, and the improvement blends naturally with the rest of the features.
