Simon Cowell and the male celebrities turning to cosmetic treatments

Ever wondered how TV stars continue to look great?

While we might think of facial cosmetics as a female treatment, an increasing number of male icons seem to be catching on. Simon Cowell, the music industry kingpin known for his appearances as a formidable X Factor panellist, is one of the male celebrities picked out in recent times for his clear complexion and vibrant appearance.

So how does he do it? In an interview with The Sun on Sunday, Cowell hinted at his preference for forward-thinking cosmetics treatments, and talked about his past botox treatments. One of the new age treatments favoured by men is dermal fillers - so what are the potential advantages of these procedures for men in their late 20s and upwards? In this blog, we take a look:

Dermal fillers for men

Using dermal fillers, the facial features typically associated with masculinity - such as a strong jawline and defined cheeks - can be accentuated. The treatment can add shape to men's face, which contributes to the type of manly, handsome appearance that the celebs crave.

Chin and jaw augmentation

Loose or sagging skin is a natural sign of ageing, and these effects can be especially pronounced in the chin and jaw areas. Dermal fillers get to work restoring definition in the chin and jaw, augmenting these parts of the face and making them appear stronger. It all goes towards a less tired, balanced and more chiselled appearance which can help make celebs look fresher in the face of the paparazzi!

Target signs of ageing

Dermal fillers can also be a great option for those who wish to make subtle nose adjustments, avoiding the lengthier surgery of a 'nose job'. For men who wish to make a small adjustment like a change to the tip of the nose, or the smoothing of a bump, dermal fillers can prove to be the best choice. For signs of ageing around the mouth, lip fillers can be beneficial.

Of course it isn't just Simon Cowell who might have added years to his TV career with cosmetic treatments. What about celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay? He looks in tremendous shape thanks to a healthy lifestyle, great food, and treatments which he says were recommended to him by his friend Cowell. And then there is businessman Sir Alan Sugar, star of The Apprentice, who is reportedly a keen recipient of cosmetic treatments to freshen up his appearance.

Stars like Cowell, Ramsay and Sir Alan have shown us that there is nothing wrong with men bringing the best out in their looks.
