Why Men Consider Plastic Surgery

Competition in the business world imposes a common viewpoint. Businessmen turn to cosmetic surgery as a way to shift the stigma that an older man is not trendy and therefore not as effective as a younger man in the very same job. Other men choose plastic surgery to feel more attractive and confident in their everyday lives.

Common Procedures for Men

Men have special needs when it comes to plastic surgery. While Dr. McNemar performs many of the same procedures for men and women, there are some special operations just for men. Also, because of the distinct structure of a man’s body, there are technical differences.

For the Face

Men typically have skin that is thicker than women and contains hair in the facial area. Cosmetic procedures such as eyelid surgery, nose surgery, and facial implant surgery are performed essentially the same way for men and women. If you are seeking a more masculine look to your facial features — a chin with better projection, more prominent cheekbones, a stronger nose — these are all available by using facial implants, rhinoplasty or a facelift.

A Reputation Built on Results

Great experience overall.
The doctor and staff were beyond excellent from the time I entered the door and first visit. I felt...
Very honest and diligent with the surgery he shows empathy and is realistic about patient expectations.

For the Body

The ideal male body shape is considered to be trim and athletic-looking, with broad shoulders and chest, a flat abdomen, and a narrow hip-thigh area. However, as men age, areas of fat tend to accumulate around the abdomen, the flanks (“love handles”), the chest area (a condition called gynecomastia), and along the chin and neck. Men sometimes seek:

  • Liposuction to remove these fatty areas that are resistant to diet and exercise.
  • Male breast reduction to remove fat and/or glandular tissue enlarged male breasts.
  • Tummy tuck if they have excess skin or loose abdominal muscles.

In many cases, liposuction alone can effectively correct problem areas. Men retain their skin elasticity longer than women do, and the areas of fat beneath the skin tend to be firmer and more vascular than those in women. Because of these and other factors, liposuction in men is usually very effective.

Look Great Without Surgery

In addition to surgery, there are also other non-surgical services that can help men improve their appearance, such as BOTOX® Cosmetic. Dr. McNemar understands the special needs of his male patients and looks forward to helping you enhance your image.

Today, men of all ages and all walks of life are requesting plastic surgery. 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.
