Non-Surgical Treatments for Men in Newcastle: Man Boobs, Belly Fat and Jawline

Most men who come to us have been thinking about it for a long time before they ring. That is normal, and nobody here is going to make a thing of it. This page is the plain version of what we can and cannot do, so you can work out whether it is worth your time before you speak to anyone.

Four things bring men into the clinic in Whickham. The chest, the stomach, the jawline, and skin that has started to look tired. Here is how each one actually works.

Start with the chest, because a lot of men get this wrong

There are two different problems here and in the mirror they look almost identical.

Gynaecomastia is glandular breast tissue. It sits directly behind the nipple, it feels like a firm disc, and it does not shift with training, dieting or any kind of fat reduction. If that is what you have, nothing on this page will help you and your GP is the right first call.

Pseudogynaecomastia is fat sitting over the chest muscle. It is softer, it spreads wider than the nipple, and it does respond to treatment.

Have a feel for the disc. If you cannot find one and the tissue is soft and moves under your fingers, you are almost certainly dealing with fat. We will check this properly at your assessment before we take a penny off you. Our longer article on how to get rid of man boobs goes into the difference in more detail.

Chest fat, or how to get rid of man boobs without surgery

If you have typed how to get rid of man boobs into a search bar, this is the section for you, and the honest answer depends on which of the two problems above you have. For soft chest fat, fat freezing is what most men end up having. Controlled cooling takes the tissue below minus 9 degrees, which kills the fat cells off by apoptosis, and your lymphatic system clears them over the following weeks. A session runs 45 to 60 minutes. There is no downtime, you drive yourself home afterwards and you go back to work.

Most men notice a change around four weeks in, with the full result landing somewhere between six and twelve weeks. It is not instant, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling you something.

Where the chest looks puffy rather than purely fatty, Body Ballancer lymphatic drainage helps move the fluid that is sitting there. It works alongside fat reduction rather than instead of it.

If the skin over the chest has gone slack, usually after a big weight loss, BTL Exilis Ultra Body tightens it. Fat reduction on its own will not fix loose skin, and we would rather tell you that upfront than after.

Stomach

The stomach is the single most treated area in the clinic, and men make up a good chunk of that.

Fat freezing handles the pinchable stuff, the roll that sits over the waistband and refuses to go no matter what the gym does. EMERALD Laser works differently, using low level laser to empty fat cells rather than destroy them, and it suits men carrying weight across a wider area rather than in one pocket.

EMSculpt Neo is the other one worth knowing about. It builds muscle and reduces fat in the same session, which is why it tends to appeal to men who already train and want definition rather than just a smaller number on the scales.

Which of the three you need depends on what you are actually carrying. That is a five minute conversation at your assessment, not something you should have to guess at from a website.

Jawline and double chin

A soft jawline ages a face faster than almost anything else, and it is the thing men mention most once they sit down.

HIFU uses focused ultrasound to lift and tighten the deeper layer of the face, the one a surgeon pulls on during a facelift. No needles, no cuts, nothing to recover from. It suits men who want the jaw to look sharper without anyone being able to point at what has changed.

Where there is genuine fat under the chin rather than loose skin, fat freezing on the submental area is the better call. Sometimes it is both, and then we stage them.

Skin

Men tend to come in about skin last, usually after someone at work has said they look tired.

BTL Exilis Ultra Face uses radiofrequency to firm the skin and soften the lines around the eyes and forehead. HIFU does the lifting work higher up. Neither leaves you looking like you have had something done, which for most of the men we see is the entire point.

How many sessions will you need

Fat freezing gives an average reduction of 25 to 40 percent of the fat in the area treated, per treatment. For a chest or a stomach, most men are looking at two or three sessions spaced six to eight weeks apart, though some are happy after one.

We will give you a number at your assessment and we will not pad it. If you only need one, we will tell you that, and you can always come back for more later if you want to push the result further.

You can see before and after photographs of real clients on our results page. They are our own, not stock images, and they are not retouched.

Why men choose this over surgery

Liposuction and chest surgery work, and for glandular tissue surgery is the only thing that does. But it means a general anaesthetic, time off work, compression garments and a recovery you have to explain to people.

Non-surgical fat reduction takes an hour and you are back at your desk the same afternoon. The trade off is that it is slower and it is gradual rather than dramatic. For most men that is exactly what they wanted anyway, because nobody clocks the moment it changed.

What the first appointment is

It is a free assessment and it costs you nothing. We look at the area, tell you which of the two chest problems you have if that is why you are here, and tell you honestly whether we can help.

Sometimes the answer is no. If you have glandular tissue, or your expectations are surgical, we will say so and you can go away and think about it. We would rather lose the booking than take money for something that was never going to work.

You can do it in clinic or over video if you would rather not walk in the first time. Plenty of men choose the video option and there is no awkwardness in that.

What it costs

Every price we charge is on the price list, not hidden behind a form. We offer 0% finance over 12 months, and we price match any like for like treatment at another clinic.

Most men are surprised it is less than they assumed, largely because they had been comparing it against surgery.
