Men’s Chest
Contour your body without surgery.
Fillers are injectable substances — often made from hyaluronic acid or other biocompatible materials — designed to smooth wrinkles, restore lost volume, and enhance contours. Traditionally, fillers were applied in facial treatments, but they have also become popular for enhancing other areas of the body, particularly the upper chest (décolletage), hands, buttocks, and knees. Fillers not only add volume to the treated area but can also be used to change its shape, correcting small irregularities without the need for a more invasive procedure.

Persana Tip
The FDA approves fillers for use in specific areas of the body. Many are approved for the face. Below the face, there are several products that are approved for use in the hands (including Restylane Lyft® and Radiesse®), but most other body fillers in the United States are being given in an “off-label” manner. It is always important to consult with a board-certified physician to find out what is safe and suitable for you and your specific body part.
Enhance and define your chest and torso
The presence of enlarged or overdeveloped breasts in men is known as gynecomastia. This condition can arise as the result of hormonal imbalances, genetics, the use of certain medications or substances, weight gain or other underlying health issues. Whatever the cause, it has the potential to affect self-confidence and cause emotional and physical discomfort. A breast reduction in men, also known as gynecomastia surgery, can be done to remove the excess breast tissue and enhance contours to achieve a more masculine appearance.
Key Benefits
- Refine and Sculpt the Male Chest
Achieve a chest shape more traditionally aligned with a masculine physique. - Alleviate Pain and Discomfort
Alleviate chest tenderness, discomfort, and sensitivity to restore confidence and comfort. - Enhance Body Image
Boost confidence and self-esteem by feeling better about the way you look.
Persana Tip
When considering gynecomastia surgery, it’s crucial for the surgeon to understand your current and ideal chest shape. Bringing in photos is always helpful. You should also review before-and-after photos from previous surgeries that the provider has performed, to see what results they typically achieve and to better understand their artistic vision. The more detailed you can be about your desired outcome, the better.
Fade streaks and reveal smoother skin
Stretch marks, also known as striae distensae, are narrow streaks or lines that appear on the skin’s surface due to rapid stretching. This stretching can rupture the collagen and elastin fibers that support our skin, resulting in an inconsistent skin texture and striated appearance as healing occurs.
Stretch marks, which are more prevalent in women, typically appear on the lower abdomen, back or flanks, buttocks, thighs, or breasts. Though common, their presence can cause significant emotional distress, affecting self-image and self-confidence. While treatments have not been successful in removing them entirely, there are effective novel therapies that can make these streaks less visible.
Key Benefits of Stretch Mark Treatments
- Improve the Appearance of Your Skin
Minimize stretch mark streaks on areas like the back, flanks and thighs, helping to optimize your body’s complexion. - Enhance Skin Texture
Bring consistency to your skin by treating areas where it is striated or elevated. - Boost Self-Confidence
Minimize marks that can affect your body image and lessen your comfort in engaging in everyday activities.
Persana Tip
Despite advancements in various therapies, treating stretch marks remains challenging. This difficulty stems from the near-permanence of stretch marks, intricate processes involved in skin healing, diversity in skin types, and individual reactions to treatments. While the appearance of stretch marks can improve, you should not expect the skin to completely regain its original texture and color.
