Men & Cosmetic Surgery
An ever increasing number of men are undergoing Facial Cosmetic Surgery to spruce up their appearance for a variety of reasons. Rightly or wrongly, our society places a high value on looking young and fit, and many baby boomers are reaching the age where they feel the need for touch up surgery to help them look their best. Men have also come to see cosmetic surgery as more acceptable as they read more about it in men's magazines and other publications. Men now make up approximately 25 percent of our cosmetic surgery patients.
In today's fiercely competitive business world, men are looking for an "edge" that may make the difference between success and failure. Many tired looking executives may feel they are being passed over in favor of their more youthful colleagues.
Men are increasingly aware that the benefits of cosmetic surgery are not limited to women and people in public life, and are opting for facelift and other rejuvenation procedures.
Most popular in men is the eyelid lift to get rid of bags under the eyes and sagging upper lids, thereby restoring a younger, fresher look. Facelift surgery to reduce a heavy neck that may occur as a familial tendency, or as we age, is also popular, as is nasal refinement, and chin enhancement to build up a weak chin.
Whatever the motivation, refining a man's features can increase self-confidence and self-esteem, which will stand him in good stead both in his professional and personal life.
