Improvement is made through the use of cosmetic procedures.

Male plastic surgery is a general term used to describe cosmetic treatments that target facial aging and body insecurities and are tailored to the male patient. Men can pick and choose from a variety of procedures to best fit their aesthetic needs.

What Can Male Plastic Surgery Achieve?

Angular Facial Contours

Men are just as susceptible to facial ageing as women. Tissue breakdown, gravity, sun damage, and environmental factors all contribute to facial ageing and can alter the overall shape of your face. Male plastic surgery can reduce the presence of lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin, and can restore masculine facial features, such as an angular jawline and defined cheekbones.

Trim and Sculpted Physique

Whether you have love handles, a dad bod, man boobs, or have lost a significant amount of weight that led to excess skin, male plastic surgery can help. Male body procedures can target excess fat or skin to reveal a smoother, tighter, and fitter physique.

Reduction of Physical Insecurities

Sometimes the changes in your physique and facial appearance are a response to an unhealthy lifestyle and bad habits. Other times, however, they are out of your control and due to ageing or genetics. Whatever the cause, these changes can lead to insecurities and a diminished sense of confidence. We do recommend all patients focus on a healthy lifestyle, including a healthy diet and exercise habits. Often, plastic surgery can enhance what diet and exercise cannot, such as loose skin, or stubborn fatty areas. Male plastic surgery targets the root of those insecurities so that you can feel comfortable in your appearance.

Popular Male Plastic Surgery Procedures

BOTOX® Cosmetic

BOTOX® Cosmetic is an injectable treatment that temporarily blocks chemical signals to the muscles that cause wrinkles to form. BOTOX® Cosmetic can slow down the development of crow’s feet, frown lines, and forehead lines that develop from repeated facial movements.

Facelift

Facelift surgery targets aging on the lower two-thirds of the face. This surgical procedure addresses facial laxity by trimming excess skin, tightening the underlying tissues and muscle, and often reducing collections of fat. This results in smoother skin, restored cheek contours, a more angular jawline, and a younger-looking neck.

Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery removes upper eyelid hooding and lower eyelid bags by trimming excess skin and repositioning or removing fat deposits. Eyelid surgery targets the signs of aging caused by eyelid skin, fatty bulging, sun damage, and gravity. This procedure can open up the eyes, creating a more youthful and rested appearance.

Liposuction

Liposuction, or liposculpture, is a surgical procedure that uses vacuum suctioning to improve body contours by permanently removing stubborn fat from various areas such as the hips, abdomen, thighs, flanks, buttocks, back, chest, upper arms, and neck.

Tummy Tuck Surgery

Tummy tuck surgery targets skin laxity on the abdomen that has resulted from weight loss and aging. This procedure restores a fit and firm abdominal contour by trimming excess skin. Tummy tuck surgery is commonly combined with liposuction, which removes excess fat.

Concerns

Recovery

Your recovery period will depend on the procedure (or combination of procedures) that you undergo. BOTOX® Cosmetic does not require much in the way of recovery, and men can return to their normal schedules the following day, if not the same day. Surgical procedures typically require one to two weeks of downtime with an additional two to four weeks of activity limitations.

Scars

Scars will form at the incision sites for all surgical procedures. Dr. George Alexander puts meticulous care into the placement and closure of these incisions to minimize scarring. He uses advanced, scar minimizing plastic surgery techniques. Almost all scars fade with time and can be improved by keeping the incisions out of the sun and applying silicone strips and gel if you feel they are necessary.

Cost

The cost of your male plastic surgery will vary depending on factors such as the applied techniques, anesthesia fees, certified facility fees, and surgical fees. Dr. George Alexander will provide you with an accurate cost estimate during your consultation that will include a breakdown of the expenses involved.

Comfort

Surgical procedures often result in some discomfort; however, many describe their post-surgery pain levels as manageable and less than they expected. Dr. Alexander often uses a dual anesthetic technique, which provides outstanding comfort. Prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication, cold compresses, and compression garments are all instruments to enhance comfort during your recovery.

FAQ

1. Can these procedures be performed together?

Male plastic surgery procedures may be performed simultaneously based on the global assessment of each patient’s overall medical health and the procedures desired. These recommendations are individualized to maximize safety and world-class results.

2. Will my results be permanent?

The longevity of your surgical outcome will depend on the procedure itself, as well as how well the results are maintained with lifestyle choices. Plastic surgery does not stop the progression of aging or prevent future weight gain, so we recommend that you follow a healthy lifestyle and maintain a stable weight for the best long-term results.

3. Is male plastic surgery safe?

Plastic surgery has come a long way in terms of safety and comfort. Potential risks will always be present with surgery. While rare, complications may include:

Reactions to anesthesia
Bleeding
Swelling
Bruising
Infection
Fluid accumulation
Poor wound healing
Blood clots
