What are the Typical Cosmetic Procedures for Men?
When a surgeon looks at a man’s face, he sees more than facial quality and structure. He examines the neck and the hairline, the eyes and the nose. He studies the pattern of the sideburns and the extent of beard growth. These factors are important in helping the doctor decide on the best approach for improving your face.
Plastic surgeons do both major surgery and less invasive procedures for revitalizing the face. The less-invasive procedures have two advantages over surgery: lower cost, and faster healing time.
The procedures include injections and low-energy lasers and some examples are:
· Botox® – a drug injected into the skin to reduce and smooth wrinkles, lines, forehead furrows, and crow’s feet.· Collagen – a soft tissue filler, and a fibrous protein found naturally in skin, bone, cartilage, tendon, and connective tissue. Collagen gives our skin its strength and elasticity. Plastic surgeons inject collagen into the face, lips, and hands. Other fillers are hyaluronic acid and polylactic acid.· Microdermabrasion – uses particles of aluminum oxide to remove the outer layers of skin. This is effective in smoothing facial lines and wrinkles. And it works well on crow’s feet, age spots, and acne scars.· Laser hair removal – uses low-energy lasers to disable hair follicles.· Chemical peel -- which applies a chemical solution to the skin, is effective on sun-damaged skin, facial wrinkles, and acne scars.· Laser skin resurfacing – takes care of facial wrinkles and lines, sun-damaged skin, blotches, and brown spots.
Today, plastic surgeons have many procedures to treat their male patients. Men, like women, want to look their best. By changing a man’s body structure and rejuvenating his skin, cosmetic surgery can improve his appearance. Cosmetic procedures are a safe and effective way for a man to have a more healthy and youthful appearance—regardless of age.
