Contrary to popular belief, men are increasingly conscious about their appearance. As a direct result of this, today more and more men are opting for aesthetic procedures to enhance their appearance and increase their confidence.
As cosmetic procedures for men are becoming more popular, they also are choosing both invasive and non-invasive procedures to achieve and maintain the gains made. So to begin our Prosurgicare Blog and the New Year we’ve decided to countdown the top 3 aesthetic procedures for men, ending with the most popular.
Male Gland Removal/Gynecomastia
Gland removal or excision is a fairly common procedure among men. Excess body weight or hormonal problems may cause the enlarged gland in the male chest to appear as breasts, a condition known as Gynecomastia. This procedure may include liposuction, excision, or both. Gynecomastia, unlike female breast reduction aims to remove more tissue than fat. As a result, the overall shaping of the pectoral muscles are entirely different from the shaping the female breasts after a breast reduction. Men with more serious cases of Gynecomastia often have issues with physical activity. Exercises like jumping and running are awkward, uncomfortable, and often, embarrassing. Intimate acts with a partner and sexual activities can also be intimidating and may influence why some men partake in these activities less than they would like. Proper reduction of this area allows men to feel more comfortable when they engage in all physical activities and encourages them to be even more active.
Tummy Tuck/Abdominoplasty
Even the most intense physical training won’t get rid of loose skin. No matter how much time is spent in the gym and eating a healthy diet, hanging skin may linger. Combine these problems with a stubborn fat issue and a Tummy Tuck could be the answer. This aesthetic procedure shapes the stomach to give men a more defined, flatter, and firmer midsection. With the Tummy Tuck, men also get proper body contouring. An enlarged midsection can happen due to pockets of loose skin and flabby fat. Combined with Liposuction, a proper Tummy Tuck removes excess fat and tightens abdominal skin. While this procedure won’t instantly give you rock-solid abs, your midsection can be tighter and more contoured meaning you’ll look a whole lot better in some swim trunks.
Liposuction
The most popular procedure for men is Liposuction. Did you guess that? Lipo is a must for many men that need to remove unwanted fat deposits in the body. You know how it goes, sitting on the couch, watching You Tube, hammering beers and low and behold, there’s a beer belly where the 6 pack was. And it’s not just the belly. Many areas of the body can store excess energy or fat layers, but a lack of physical activity, uncontrolled eating habits and unwanted genetic factors could cause wider midsections and a bigger backsides. Men who manage to reduce their body weight significantly may still have stubborn fat deposits on their buttocks, sides, legs, and arms. All of these procedures have one thing in common. When done well they increase male confidence and self esteem. They also make men more easy on the eyes for the ladies. As men begin to develop their muscle mass, by hitting the gym, liposuction could also help to sculpt specific parts of the body particularly the abs and even create genuine motivation for further weight loss and healthier living. Also, who would have thought that removing excess fat layers make the underlying muscle structure more prominent.
