As Pride Month heats up, so does the buzz around cosmetic procedures that promise to elevate your confidence and enhance your experience in the LGBTQ scene. Whether you’re gearing up for a parade or just want to look fab at a circuit party, here’s the lowdown on what’s trending this season.
According to Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner Chris Bustamante, the owner of Lushful Aesthetics, the requests for certain procedures skyrocket during this festive month. “I think sex and confidence are always top of mind for our patients,” Bustamante says. “The lead-up to Pride and summer tends to come with the expectation of having more opportunities to show off and have some fun.” So, what’s on the menu for those looking to glam up?
First up, let’s talk about penis fillers. Known as GirthFill, this nonsurgical procedure involves injecting hyaluronic acid fillers into the shaft to enhance girth. Bustamante notes that this procedure alone accounts for a whopping 27 percent of his clinic’s annual revenue. With a 74 percent increase in revenue over the past year and appointments skyrocketing by 65 percent, it’s clear that many are seeking this boost in confidence before hitting the summer festivities.
Next, there’s the scrotum filler, or ScroFill, which is gaining traction among those wanting a fuller look down under. This procedure enhances the appearance of the scrotum, making it appear larger and more balanced when paired with GirthFill. “ScroFill is one of Lushful Aesthetics’ fastest-growing treatments,” Bustamante explains. With minimal downtime, it’s a go-to for many looking to strut their stuff during Pride.
But wait, there’s more! HoleTox, also known as anal Botox, is a game-changer for those who want to ease into bottoming. This quick procedure involves injecting neuromodulators like Botox into the anal sphincter, allowing for a more relaxed experience. “Patients who experience tightness or discomfort with receptive anal sex find this procedure makes a major impact on their sex lives,” Bustamante shares. Talk about a confidence booster!
And let’s not forget about laser hair removal. Many are opting for this treatment to get beach-ready by reducing unwanted hair. Bustamante mentions that clients often target areas like the back, shoulders, and pubic region to feel more confident showing skin during Pride events. After all, who doesn’t want to flaunt a smooth physique?
As we dive deeper into Pride Month, it’s clear that cosmetic enhancements are more than just superficial; they’re about boosting confidence and feeling fabulous in your own skin. Whether you’re hitting the beach, the club, or just lounging around, these procedures are helping many in the LGBTQ community embrace their bodies and enjoy their summer to the fullest. So, if you’re thinking about a little enhancement, now might just be the perfect time to book that appointment!
