What do Steve Martin, Simon Cowell, and Vladimir Putin have in common? They have all had cosmetic procedures that include Botox.

According to an MSNBC report, the number of cosmetic procedures for men has been on the rise in the last decade. Men are feeling the pressure to look younger and more attractive, and now men receive many of the same cosmetic procedures as women.

Body Beautiful Spa, a day and medical spa in the Phoenix – Scottsdale area, has seen a growing number of male clients for Botox. In today’s competitive market, looking younger and more vibrant can make a big difference in an interview or sales presentation. Men are finding what women have known for almost 10 years; that Botox rolls back years by smoothing crow’s feet, deep brow furrows, frown lines, and more. Men are also finding that the expert injectors and affordable luxury Botox pricing at Body Beautiful Spa make it the preferred medical spa for men in the Phoenix – Scottsdale area.

Cosmetic procedures, including Botox, are nothing new to Hollywood men. According to “The Daily Beast”:

• Surgeons have speculated that Steve Martin’s largely unchanged look over the past 20 years may be due to an injection of “conservative facial fillers [such as Juvederm or Radiesse] and Botox,” though the star has never confirmed or denied it.
• The juxtaposition of Billy Crystal’s smooth forehead and sagging neck and jaw line have led some cosmetic surgeons to speculate about the use of Botox on his forehead and “dermal fillers or fat grafting” on his now-plumper cheeks.
• Tom Cruise was reportedly considering Botox injections to help shave 10 years off his appearance or his reprise of the starring role in this year’s “Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol”.
• 51-year-old producer and TV personality Simon Cowell admitted to the Daily Mail that he has had Botox injections.
• Al Pacino has changing features that have been attributed by some to a variety of possible procedures, including Botox injections and laser skin resurfacing.
• Barry Manilow has had regular Botox injections since it was approved for cosmetic use in 2002.
• Surgeons reported to the Daily Mail that Vladimir Putin’s smooth look while accepting his party’s presidential nomination in September included “removal of bags under his eyes and Botox.”
