The new masculinity

Objectives: (1) understand the evolution of men's attitude towards cosmeceuticals/cosmetic treatments in the past 50 years, and the background events that facilitated this transformation
(2) While more and more men are embracing cosmetic treatments, they also suffer from increasing masculine gender role stress. How do we cope with this phenomenon
(3) the difference between traditional, toxic masculinity and new masculinity

Introduction: In the past few decades, the percentage increase of cosmetic treatments for men is higher than women. But cosmetic treatments or cosmeceuticals used to be perceived as feminine just a generation ago. Consumerism, gender equality, social media, all contribute to this transformation. In terms of cosmetic-treatment-seeking behaviors, there are many differences between men and women. Also, facing the increasing masculine gender role stress (traditional role of men being challanged), some men react in a negative way (BDD, toxic masculinity). It's time to re-define masculinity.

Materials / method: literature research
social observation
personal experience treating male patients

Conclusion: Toxic masculinity refers to certain harmful cultural and societal norms that are associated with masculinity such as maintaining the appearance of being tough or dominant, encouraging violent attitudes and behaviour, and suppressing emotions or distress.
Modern new masculinity reflects the embodiment of men who are sensitive, thoughtful, creative, and openly embrace their identity
Having cosmetic treatments really doesn’t reduce your masculinity, in a study on women’s perception of men receiving cosmetic procedures

BIGSHOT: A novel and ideal technique for non-surgical male enhancement

Objectives: Presenting a novel and ideal non-surgical solution for penis enlargement called BIGSHOT

Introduction: Interest in male focused treatments has dramatically increased over the past decade as social acceptance, fueled by social media, has rapidly increased. As a result, new products and treatments tailored specifically to this demographic have emerged in almost every category, including male enhancement. The BIGSHOT technique is ideal for non-surgical penis enhancement.

Materials / method: BIGSHOT is the application of platelet rich gel matrix (PRGM) to the penis shaft, a composite gel consisting of hyaluronic acid (HA) filler mixed with platelet rich plasma (PRP). This gel is natural, low risk, rapidly available, and completely reversible like HA fillers, however, it lasts for several years. The longevity of BIGSHOT is attributed to the collagenesis that is produced by the combination of HA with PRP. BIGSHOT has the ability to sculpt a thicker and long shaft while flaccid, an effect that is further increased during an erection.

Results: While enhancements are impressive, there is no change in sensitivity or performance, minimal complications and risks and the procedure takes around 30 minutes to complete. Pain is minimal and normal sexual activity can be resumed after 3-4 days.

Conclusion: The BIGSHOT technique may indeed represent the most ideal solution for non-surgical male enhancement to date.
