Botox for Men

I saw Simon Cowell being interviewed by Piers Morgan at the weekend and he was asked “do you have Botox injections?” Simon, obviously no shrinking violet, replied whilst pointing to a smooth forehead “of course I do, it’s like having your hair cut”. He then looked at Piers who has a prominent smooth forehead, and chided him saying “and of course so do you!” Piers was indignant and embarrassed and said “I don’t”. Simon rather forcefully replied “well show me how you frown”.  He could not, much to the merriment of Simon and the audience! This shows the two extremes of public reaction to having cosmetic work. I am pleased to say slowly it is changing where denial is on the way out and an acceptance of such treatments becoming more commonplace.

Over the last 5 years at Court House Clinics we have seen a steady increase in the number of men requesting cosmetic treatments and Botox is the most popular choice. The frown and wrinkly foreheads are the most common problem. “I feel fine but colleagues say i look cross all the time”. Botox reduces, not completely removes  these movements giving a natural more youthful appearance. For men this is particularly important with pressures in the work environment in addition to social activities!

10 minute Botox jabs in Debenhams

Debenhams are to offer 10 minute Botox jabs to customers… a spokesperson for the department store chain claims that this will make the procedure easier for shoppers to fit the treatment into their busy daily schedules. But is this the sort of thing we should be encouraging the public to do? Court House Clinics firmly believes that a medical procedure like Botox should be performed in a medical environment by skilled practitioners. Our medical director Dr Patrick Bowler is the co founder of the British Association of Cosmetic doctors an organisation that has strived to help regulate the cosmetic industry and help protect the public. That’s why at our clinics our injectables are administered by cosmetic doctors, we don’t remote prescribe to nurses or therapists. Although Botox is a perfectly safe procedure when administered correctly by a qualified practitioner, the decision to have the treatment is still an important one and should not be slotted into a busy shopping trip! It should be considered carefully and you should be aware that Botox can have unpleasant side effects if given incorrectly. Too much and you could spend the next three months with droopy eyelids, eyebrows that don’t work together, or, if you have too much near your mouth, drooling! So our advice is not to have it done in a nail salon, hairdressers or a department store. Visit a qualified, experienced doctor and if time is an issue we have plenty of flexible, last minute appointments available for busy time sensitive clients. Don’t compromise!

An Uplifting Experience

Court House Clinics has introduced Breform™, the revolutionary and permanent internal bra system that holds you in all the right places and never lets you down! Breform™ restores the once youthful, natural and original appearance of your breasts without the necessity of silicone or saline implants.

Breform™ provides a permanent solution for women with medium ‘droopy’ breasts. It is ideal for restoring shape and lift particularly for women who have lost their natural shape after having children. The Breform™ internal bra is made of polyester which has been employed in reconstructive surgery for over 40 years with a 100% acceptance and no reported allergic reactions. It is currently the only breast support system to come with a permanent guarantee of never loosing its shape whereas a traditional breast uplift only lasts for a maximum of 10 years.

Breform™ is an ideal solution to perk up your breasts without invasive surgery or implants. Women are advised that they must be past child bearing, of an ideal, stable weight and a non smoker prior to the procedure so as to obtain the best possible and permanent results. Breform is also suitable for women having undergone a mastectomy wanting an even appearance.

One of our patients Claire Coleman 42 from Gloucestershire was the 5th woman in the UK to have the procedure with our surgeon Dr Dalvi Humzah. She told her exciting story to the Daily Mail and also appeared on BBC News! She is thrilled with her new shape and the surgery has boosted her confidence now that she has dropped from a 36D to a C-cup.

‘I was seeing a new partner and, despite the scarring, I was much more forthright undressing in front of him. Even though we have since broken up, I’m feeling so much better about dating and relationships in the future because I am totally comfortable about being naked now. In fact, I’d even go without a bra in the day.’
