Reclaim a sharper, more confident look with male facial rejuvenation at Southern Coastal Aesthetics. Carrie L. Morris, MD, FACS—triple board-certified and renowned for precision—treats sagging skin, under-eye bags, jowls, deep lines, and skin texture issues using advanced techniques to restore the strength and structure of your features.
Facelift
A facelift repositions and tightens the underlying muscles and tissues of the face to restore a more youthful, defined appearance. For men, the goal is always to preserve natural contours and avoid any overdone or pulled look. Dr. Morris uses SMAS (superficial musculoaponeurotic system) techniques to lift deeper facial layers—targeting the lower face, jawline, and neck for sharper definition. For patients looking for less downtime, a mini facelift can address early jowling or skin laxity with smaller incisions and a quicker recovery.
Neck liposuction
Stubborn fat beneath the chin or around the neck can obscure a strong jawline, even in men who are otherwise fit. Neck liposuction is a highly effective technique to sculpt this area and create a sharper definition. Dr. Morris uses Smartlipo® Triplex®, a laser-assisted liposuction system that melts fat and tightens skin simultaneously. This method is minimally invasive, with tiny incisions hidden under the chin or behind the ears. Recovery is typically quick, and the results—especially when combined with a facelift—can be transformative.
Eyelid surgery
Drooping eyelids or puffy under-eyes can make you appear tired or older than you feel. Dr. Morris specializes in CO₂ laser eyelid surgery, a bladeless technique that offers precision and minimal downtime. Unlike traditional methods that involve external incisions, this laser-assisted approach allows for internal, scar-free correction of both upper and lower eyelids. Because the eye area is so expressive, this subtle refinement can have a major impact on your overall look—restoring alertness without changing your expressions.
Injectables
Injectables remain one of the fastest, most effective ways to soften deep lines and restore lost volume—especially around the forehead, eyes, and jawline. At Southern Coastal Aesthetics, Dr. Morris offers BOTOX®, Dysport®, and a full suite of dermal fillers, including JUVÉDERM®, Restylane®, and RHA® Collection. For men, the approach is strategic and subtle: smoothing crow’s feet, lifting deep folds, and enhancing cheek or chin structure without adding roundness or softness. The results are natural and masculine and require no downtime.
IPL photofacial
If you have sun damage, redness, or uneven skin tone, an IPL (intense pulsed light) photofacial can help reset the canvas. Using the Icon® Cynosure Lutronic platform, this treatment targets pigment and vascular irregularities beneath the skin’s surface. It sends precise pulses of light that break up discoloration and stimulate collagen. It’s a great option for men who want clearer, healthier-looking skin without peeling or lasers. Most patients see noticeable improvements in tone and texture after a series of treatments, with zero downtime.
Laser skin resurfacing
Years of sun exposure, shaving irritation, or acne scars can leave skin rough, wrinkled, or weathered. Laser skin resurfacing using the Lumenis UltraPulse® or AcuPulse™ systems removes damaged outer layers of skin and stimulates deep collagen remodeling.
Dr. Morris uses fractional CO₂ technology, which involves creating microscopic treatment zones, to target specific skin concerns without damaging the surrounding skin. This advanced resurfacing technique is ideal for addressing deep wrinkles, textural irregularities, or scars.
SkinPen microneedling
Microneedling is a non-invasive treatment that uses fine needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body’s natural healing response. SkinPen®, the first FDA-cleared microneedling device, is used at Southern Coastal Aesthetics to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and enhance tone. For men dealing with large pores, early aging, or mild acne scarring, this treatment offers a subtle refresh with little to no downtime. It can also be enhanced with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or exosome therapy for added collagen stimulation and healing.
Pixel8-RF microneedling
For men looking to firm sagging skin without surgery, Pixel8-RF microneedling combines radiofrequency energy with microneedling to deliver heat deep into the dermis. This process tightens the skin, stimulates collagen, and improves texture. It’s particularly effective on the lower face and neck—areas where gravity often shows first. Unlike lasers, RF microneedling is safe for all skin types and requires minimal downtime. Dr. Morris may recommend this as part of a non-surgical facelift or maintenance plan for younger male patients.
Male Facial Rejuvenation FAQs
Will facial rejuvenation make me look unnatural or “worked on”?
Absolutely not. That’s one of the biggest misconceptions—and one of the biggest fears we hear from male patients. Dr. Morris is known for her subtle, sculptural approach that respects your natural bone structure and masculine features. Whether it’s a facelift, injectables, or laser resurfacing, the goal is always to help you look refreshed, not different.
How do I know which treatments I actually need?
That’s where Dr. Morris’s expertise really shines. During your consultation, she’ll evaluate your facial structure, skin condition, and aging patterns and recommend a plan that fits your needs—not a one-size-fits-all package. Some men benefit most from surgical options, while others can achieve great results with non-surgical treatments or a combination of both.
Is there downtime involved with these procedures?
It depends on the treatment. Surgical options like a facelift or eyelid surgery typically require about 7-10 days of downtime. Non-surgical treatments like microneedling or injectables involve little to no recovery—many men return to work the same day. Dr. Morris will always walk you through what to expect and help you plan around your schedule.
Can I still look masculine after rejuvenation?
Yes—100%. Dr. Morris designs every treatment plan to enhance and preserve masculine features. Strong jawlines, sharper contours, and refreshed eyes are the focus. Nothing will be overfilled or feminized. The outcome should feel like you—just better rested, more confident, and aligned with how you want to show up in the world.
