Matt Salomonsen, a dermatology patient, would not wait until serious problems developed to care for his skin.
"I use a lot of my wife's stuff, so she'll have something in the shower, and I'll try it out," Salomonsen said.
"They (men) are definitely coming out and asking questions about skin care, and what they can do to look better," said Dr. Rutledge Forney, a dermatologist.
A dermatologist zaps the affected area of the skin with a laser, shrinking red vessels and erasing brown spots.
Salomonsen is among a growing number of men in the U.S. taking better care of their skin.
"Shaving is a little bit of a daily exfoliation, kind of the equivalent of using Retin-A," Dr. Forney explained.
Doctors recommended men use a daily moisturizer with SPF to rehydrate the skin, and protect it against harmful UVA and UVB rays.
