Men are getting a little less hesitant towards cosmetic surgery over the years as cosmetic enhancement techniques have advanced over the years, more and more men are visiting plastic and reconstructive surgeons to minimize the appearance of wrinkles and gain confidence in the way they look and feel.
Total cosmetic procedures for men rose 22% from 2000 through 2012, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. From 2011 to 2012, men’s use of minimally invasive cosmetic procedures such as botulinum toxin (sold under the brand name Botox) rose 6%, according to the society.
Men’s goals include a more balanced nose, a rejuvenated face, and a trimmer waistline. The procedures used to achieve these goals must take into consideration factors such as skin thickness, beard growth, or body type. Other male procedures also include eyelid surgery, browlift, liposuction, hair replacement and male breast reduction.
Nonsurgical cosmetic treatments for men include skin care treatments and facials such as microdermabrasion, which can take years off your appearance. Additionally, injectables such as Botox, Restylane and Collagen offer wrinkle and line removal options that can rid men of their deep wrinkles.
There are many benefits to plastic surgery for men including a more youthful appearance, slimmer physique, restored confidence, staying competitive and much more.
