Spotlight on Men:

I recently read an article in the Huffington Post which highlighted the most popular plastic procedures for men. I thought I would share my thoughts on the subject.

Liposuction is a phenomenal adjunct to a healthy lifestyle and exercise accentuation the positive characteristics in the body already developed by this lifestyle with minor adjustments. Most men have retained fat in their love handles and hips which is easily treated with liposuction. The liposuction can also contour and thin out the abdominal wall allowing better visualization of the abdominal musculature . this is called lipo sculpture. The downtime after surgery is 2-3 days.

For older men looking to refresh their look, platysma plasty or tightening of the neck musculature and skin with additional weel placed fat grafting to refresh the face is the best way to pull the clock back in men without giving them a fake pulled or artificial look. The downtime is a couple of days, there may be some bruising which goes away quickly. Fat can be suctioned and injected along the neck and jaw lines to improve jowling and even to improve smaller chins. In those who are candidates, blepharoplasty or surgical rejuvenation of the eyelids is the best way to take the clock back. Skin and fat is removed from the upper eyelid judiciously and lower eyelid fat is repositioned and sculpted.

Quick fixes are botox for foreheads and the so called 11 above the nose or glabellar creases and injections for the nasolabial fold and volume loss of the cheeks and to supplement and accentuate the cheekbones.
