male fat reduction surgery

Plastic surgery continues to be on the rise with men across the board, including many of the most in-demand body contouring procedures. It’s only natural for men to want to look their best, especially as their age increases and certain aesthetic concerns like loose skin and excess fat become more common. Body contouring plastic surgery can provide a simple and safe way for guys to reclaim their more fit, younger-looking physique. But which body contouring surgeries are popular among male patients and why?

Liposuction is the most common body contouring procedure performed on men. This makes sense. The accumulation of excess fat that simply won’t go away with diet and exercise alone is a very common aesthetic concern for guys of all ages. Liposuction helps by effectively treating fat cells in the area and removing fat to provide outstanding body contouring results.

The abdomen and flanks are probably the most troublesome areas for most guys considering liposuction surgery. While many men wish to maintain a flat, toned abdomen as they age, the development of a visible gut can occur even for guys who are adamant about eating right and exercising regularly. Additionally, fat on the outer flanks that creates the appearance of “love handles” can also be challenging for many guys to avoid. Liposuction can re-sculpt the torso and effectively remove fat from these two areas. Other popular liposuction areas for men include the back, arms, around the chest, and neck (double chin).

It’s important to remember that body contouring extends far beyond just liposuction though. The demand for male breast reduction has greatly increased in recent years due to this procedures ability to successfully treat male breast enlargement caused by gynecomastia. Other popular body contouring options for men include tummy tuck surgery, arm lift surgery, and neck lift surgery.

Although some guys may be concerned that body contouring procedures may make them look more effeminate, modern surgical techniques are designed to help male patients improve their appearance while retaining their more masculine features.
