Men Are Getting It!

By Clea Spahn


While men still significantly trail women in the number of plastic surgery and cosmetic procedures performed nationwide, they are becoming increasing commonplace in more waiting rooms. There has been a recent boom in methods that enhance appearance that are non-surgical, and men are now getting involved.

Men like things that are inconspicuous so they don't have to justify their actions to their friends and they like things with no downtime so it doesn't disturb the rest of their lifestyle. Nowadays, men pay more attention to how their skin appears due to the higher awareness of skin cancer, and of course men also like to improve their appearance when they can. The more exposure to the sun that someone has had, the less effective the elasticity of the skin will be, and they will look more aged because of this.

Modern skin care can both protect the skin and improve a lot of the damage that has been done by the sun. It's a simple thing to do after the daily shave with perhaps a bit of a top up at night before retiring.

Of the types of procedures available, men specifically seem to consider rhinoplasty. This may be due to the self-consciousness about a big nose, of an odd shape or a crooked nose. Rhinoplasty is generally performed as a day patient under a general anaesthetic and return to work is possible after a week but some bruising may persist for as long as two weeks.

Facial rejuvenation procedures such as face and neck lift and blepharoplasty can be done with very inconspicuous scars and this also appeals to men. However most men don't want that over-done look. With men in general, less is more and they would rather accept a few lines than have a conspicuous post-surgical appearance that makes them self-conscious.

No matter what some men seem to do to reduce fat in certain areas, like a good diet and active lifestyle, some of it seems to remain. Commonly this is in the flank region or on the abdomen where men tend to carry most of their fat. Shaping of these regions with liposuction can be done as a day patient and return to work the next day is usually possible which can suit the busy male lifestyle.

Men who wish to have a highly sculpted athletic physique may also be interested in hair removal procedures. Using the latest advances in laser technology, hair removal has become more and more effective in recent years. A series of treatments are required to each region and the procedure is best performed when the skin is not tanned.

Men have these procedures done because of their own concerns, and they are not the same as what motivates women. There is a competitive pressure in the marketplace for men, real or imagined. Finding a cosmetic surgeon that is experienced in procedures for men is a good idea, as it seems that many men today want to appear as they did in their youth.
