A medspa for men offers clinical, non surgical treatments for hair, skin, and grooming, without a day spa feel. At First Avenue Medical Spa in Kitsilano, men come to us for clear answers and results that look natural.
Most of the men I see want one of two things. They want less time spent on grooming, or they want to look as rested as they feel.
A medical spa is not a day spa. Treatments are medical, and every plan at our clinic is physician directed.
Here are the treatments men book with us, with links to the full details on each one.
Every visit to our medspa for men starts with a consultation. We ask about your goals, your schedule, and any health conditions before suggesting anything. If a treatment is not a good fit, we will tell you.
Laser treatment reduces hair on areas that are hard to manage, like the back and shoulders. It can also cut down on razor bumps along the jaw and neck.
If you shave daily for work, fewer bumps can make a real difference. Fall is a good season to start, since less sun means less tanning before sessions.
The Canadian Dermatology Association describes the result as permanent hair reduction, not total removal. Our full guide to laser hair removal for men covers areas, candidates, and what to expect.
Botox softens lines that form when you frown or squint, such as forehead lines and crow’s feet. The goal for men is a rested look, not a frozen one.
Health Canada notes that Botox Cosmetic generally lasts three to four months. Full effect usually shows within one to two weeks. Learn more about Botox at our Kitsilano clinic.
Hair loss is common in men. The Canadian Dermatology Association reports that male pattern baldness affects about half of all men.
PRP uses platelets from your own blood, injected into the scalp. It is a non surgical option, and results build over several months.
We assess your scalp first and talk through whether PRP, medical treatment, or both make sense for you. See our page on PRP hair restoration in Vancouver for how it works.
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy. Men often ask about it for firmer looking skin and smoother texture along the jaw and neck.
Downtime is usually short. Read more about Morpheus8 at First Avenue.
Years of cycling, running, or golf outdoors can leave brown spots and uneven tone. The Canadian Dermatology Association notes that up to 90% of skin aging on sun exposed areas comes from the sun.
BBL Hero uses broadband light to target that pigment and redness. It suits men who want a more even tone without changing how they look.
Ask who performs your treatment and what training they have. Health Canada also advises confirming that the laser is licensed for your procedure.
For injectables, ask whether the product is authorised by Health Canada. A good clinic will answer clearly and never rush you. At our medspa for men, you get a straight answer, including when a treatment is not worth doing.
First Avenue Medical Spa is physician directed and has served Kitsilano, the West Side, and Point Grey since 2008.
Results last longer with a basic routine at home. Our skin care routine tips for men keep it to a few steps.
The most important step is sunscreen. Health Canada recommends a broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, even on cloudy days.
Yes. A medical spa offers clinical treatments like laser hair removal, Botox, and PRP. At our clinic, every plan is physician directed.
It depends on your goal. Laser hair removal suits grooming concerns, while Botox and BBL Hero suit skin concerns. A consultation is the best place to start.
It depends on the treatment. Health Canada notes Botox Cosmetic generally lasts three to four months. Laser hair removal gives permanent hair reduction, with occasional touch ups.
Our aim is a natural result. Most treatments are subtle and build gradually, so you look rested rather than changed.
