What Plastic Surgeries Are Common for Male Patients?
These days, I see more male plastic surgery patients than ever before. This is no surprise. We are long past the days when cosmetic procedures were perceived to be exclusively for women. Men of all ages seem eager to rejuvenate their appearances and bring out their best selves with the help of plastic surgery. But what specific plastic surgeries are male patients most interested in? In my experience as a board-certified plastic surgeon, many of the male patients that I have worked with seek cosmetic improvement to help them look younger. Plastic surgery can have an amazing anti-aging effect on areas all over the face and body.
That is precisely why eyelid surgery remains so in-demand for both male and female patients. Although some guys may be concerned that eyelid surgery can make them look effeminate or unmanly, this is not the case. Instead, when performed in a subtle manner, eyelid surgery can help guys turn back the clock by removing pockets of fat and excess skin from the eyelids to refresh the appearance of their face.
Liposuction is also exceedingly popular among male patients. Although it can be performed all over the body, I have found the abdomen, waist, and neck areas to be especially in-demand among men. As we age, fat that accumulates around the waist can be impossible to lose with diet and exercise alone. The same can be said for submental fat under the chin that contributes to the appearance of a double chin. Liposuction can safely remove this fat to provide a trimmer, shapelier contour for the face and body.
Male breast reduction surgery is ideal for men who suffer from gynecomastia (male breast enlargement). By removing the excess glandular breast tissue that leads to the enlargement, male breast reduction can help guys achieve a flatter, more masculine chest.
