BUILD the face.
GUARD the work.
Dr Band's structured system for the male face: the plan, the limits and the result are decided before treatment starts, so you look right and never overdone.
How it works
Three phases. One stance.
READ the man
The consultation. Your concerns, your experiences, your goals; then anatomy, proportion and frame, so we understand you properly and agree what actually matters first.
BUILD the face
The right techniques, tools and staged treatments: a structured system for building a stronger, more attractive male face, feature by feature, as one whole.
GUARD the work
Limits, set for you. Even when you ask for more, we prevent over-treatment, then maintain the result carefully over time, usually on an annual plan.
Build
Five steps. In that order.
B · Base, the OGEE
The zygomatic frame set first, lateral width and a clean edge building the ogee curve. A ledge, not a peak: never height.
Cheek →Base
the OGEE
The zygomatic frame the face hangs from, set first. Lateral width and a clean edge build the ogee curve, the S-line of light down the cheek. A ledge, not a peak: never height, never rounded anterior fullness.
Uplift
the Forward Arc
The maxilla is projected forward, not up. Mid-face support is rebuilt so the under-eye and lateral cheekbone are optimised together, the tear trough softens and the eyes read rested, not treated.
Install
the Frame
Chin anchors are installed before any jawline work, corners heavy, midline light, so the chin squares rather than points. This sets the width and forward projection of the lower third: the fixed points the jawline is drawn between.
Link
the Jawline Silhouette
Drawn fourth, not first, once the anchors hold. The mandibular border is traced from the gonial angle to the chin as one continuous line: a shadow that sharpens definition without adding width to the face.
Detail
the Blended Harmony
Nose, temples and lips, only where indicated, and always last. The dorsal line straightened, temple hollows supported, transitions blended, until no single feature announces itself and the whole face reads right.

The plan you take home
The plan you leave with.
Every consultation ends with this document in your hand: your five steps, what's built, what's deferred, and the exact price. Specimen shown: representative of the format, not a patient record. Protocol detail redacted; the full plan is yours at consultation.
A plan like this often defers steps the patient asked for. That is the point.
