Men Having Procedures Is More Accepted

By Clea Spahn


There is still a big difference when it comes to the women and men having cosmetic procedure or plastic surgery, but the number of men considering these options is increasing. Non-surgical techniques of improving one's appearance are becoming more widely accepted, and men have become more open about having them.

In most cases, men do not want these procedures to be obvious to people they know, so they do not want any recovery time that would mess with their busy schedules. Men are even becoming a little more self-conscious about their skin condition and this may be a combination of a high incidence of skin cancer as well as their wish to simply look better. It's also easier to see that the more sun exposed are also the most aged and this is no surprise given the deleterious effect of UV light on the skin's elastic network.

Future sun damage can be reduced, and damage from the past can be repaired as much as possible. It is pretty quick to apply, a little at night before bed, and an application following the morning shave.

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. Usually this is a day patient procedure that uses a general anaesthetic, and there could be some bruising for 2 weeks, with the patient returning to work in a week after a rhinoplasty.

Men are more attracted to a procedure that will leave only minimal scars, so they also look at face lifts and neck lifts, and blepharoplasty. 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.

Despite attention to diet and a vigorous exercise program some men simply can't shift certain deposits of fat. 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. For the selected areas of the body, several treatments are needed, and one should avoid tanning before undergoing this process.

Men have these procedures done because of their own concerns, and they are not the same as what motivates women. In the world of business, competitiveness is big, and how someone looks is part of it. 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.
