Treatments for men
Derm Clinic MD treats men at both offices. The most requested treatments are Botox for forehead and frown lines, Botox for jaw clenching and TMJ, chin and jawline filler, under-eye filler, hair restoration and treatments for acne scars. Dr. Payman plans each one for a man's face, after a consultation.

What men ask about most
The same treatments, planned for a man's face: stronger brow and jaw muscles, a squarer jawline and a natural, untreated look as the goal. Dr. Payman examines you and explains what each option can and cannot do before anything is booked.
- Botox for forehead and frown linesSoftens the lines from frowning and raising the brows. Men usually have stronger muscles there, so a dose is planned for your face, with the goal of looking rested, not frozen.
- Botox for jaw clenching and TMJRelaxes the masseter, the chewing muscle that clenches and grinds. Some patients also notice a slimmer lower face. This is an off-label use, explained at your consultation.
- Chin and jawline fillerAdds shape to a soft chin or jawline for a stronger, more defined profile.
- Under-eye fillerSoftens hollows under the eyes that make you look tired, when a consultation shows you are a good candidate.
- Hair restorationPlatelet-rich plasma from your own blood, injected into the scalp for thinning hair (an off-label use of PRP).
- Acne scars and skin textureMicroneedling, laser resurfacing and peels to smooth scarring, rough texture and sun damage.
- Botox for excessive sweatingBotox for severe underarm sweating that topical treatments have not controlled, an FDA-approved use.
- Vitamin B12 injectionsA quick injection offered at both offices.
What is different about treating men?
Men's faces are usually treated with the same products, but the plan differs. Brow and frown muscles tend to be larger, so wrinkle relaxer doses are often higher, and the brow is usually kept flatter rather than arched. Filler is placed to support a stronger chin and jaw rather than to add curves. The goal is that people notice you look rested, not that you had something done.
Where to start
You do not need to know which treatment you want. Every plan starts with an in-person consultation with Dr. Payman at the Buckhead or Cumming office, where she reviews your health history, examines the area and gives you a quote.
Questions patients ask
Do men get Botox?
Yes. Botox Cosmetic is FDA-approved for adults with moderate to severe frown lines, forehead lines and crow's feet, and that approval is not limited by sex. Men often need a higher dose because their muscles are stronger, so Dr. Payman sets the dose at your consultation.
Will I look done?
The goal is the opposite. Dr. Payman plans conservatively, keeps a man's brow shape and expressions, and would rather add a little at a follow-up than overdo the first visit.
Can Botox help with jaw clenching or TMJ pain?
Botox injected into the masseter muscle is used to relax clenching and grinding. It is an off-label use, so Dr. Payman explains the evidence, the risks and what to expect at your consultation. See Botox for jaw clenching and TMJ.
Do you treat thinning hair in men?
Yes. Derm Clinic MD offers PRP and PRF for thinning hair, an off-label use of platelet-rich plasma. See hair restoration.
