Over the last few years, there has been an increased demand from men requesting plastic surgery. Some are male baby boomer’s great health and only desire to look as good as they feel. Others are men with wives who have undergone plastic surgery to look better and now they feel inadequate and unattractive compared to their new beautiful spouse, so they request surgery as well. Whatever the reason, men are not being shy about requesting plastic surgery to touch up a few features. So, what are men requesting to have fixed? Here are a few of the most popular:

 

  • Eyelid Rejuvenation

 

Just as women often show signs of aging around the eyes with wrinkles and crows-feet, so too do men. Loose hanging furrowed skin, lateral brows that hang over the upper eyelids, and bulging fat pads below the eyelids is what can have any sex looking in the mirror, unhappy with what they see. Everyone gets tired of friends and colleagues asking if you are tired or if you are getting enough sleep. So most men are seeking surgery to restore the upper eyelids to a crisp appearance with correction of any eyelid droop. The lower lids can also be rejuvenated by removing excess fat and repositioning this tissue over the cheek. Throw in the skin and muscle tightening that goes with this procedure and you’ve got a fresh and vibrant appearance.

 

  • Neck Lift

 

Do you cringe when you hear the word “turkey gobble”, afraid someone is talking about you? A majority of men are wanting that unsightly hanging neck skin tightened up and not drooping over their tie. Ideally, men should have a strong jaw line and a crisp chin-neck junction because that’s what we’re used to seeing. Well, a neck lift can be a valuable tool to restore one’s appearance and convey youth and energy. The surgery is extremely predictable in the hands of a board-certified plastic surgeon and is an outpatient procedure with very little pain afterward. Most people find themselves looking their best in social situations within two weeks.

 

  • Chin Augmentation

 

As mentioned above with necks, the facial sub-units should all be proportionate to each other. If the lower jaw projection is limited by lack of growth, it can portray a weaker jaw with less of a masculine appearance which plays havoc on any male’s insecurities. With the right planning, a plastic surgeon can provide an enhanced projection with the combination of either an implant or repositioning the bone along with liposuction of the jaw line to create a sculpted jaw which projects strength and masculinity. Men with weak or no chins flock to this procedure with no questions asked.
