With society valuing fit bodies, men can feel a lot of pressure to look their best. Luckily, plastic surgery can help men achieve a wide variety of goals, from a trimmer figure to a more masculine chest. Below are four ways plastic surgery can refine a man’s physique.
BodyTite
BodyTite is a surgery that is designed to melt away the unwanted fat while tighten the skin. As you age, it is common for fat deposits to become more stubborn and harder to eliminate with diet and exercise. You are also likely to lose skin elasticity, especially if your weight or muscle tone has fluctuated.
BodyTite uses radiofrequency technology to simultaneously melt away extra fat and tighten the skin, providing results that are better than with liposuction alone. It works very well for men who have mild to moderate excess skin plus some fat they would like to eliminate. We can use it to transform the appearance of the arms, back, knees, chest, abdomen, and legs.
truSculpt® 3D
Another option for eliminating stubborn fat without surgery is truSculpt® 3D. The results of 2 or more treatments can rival that of liposuction for many clients, and there is zero downtime needed to recover from the procedure. It can also improve skin tone and elasticity.
For the best results, you need to get your BMI under 35. However, this procedure can target pretty much any problem area you have, including your waist, thighs and even the neck and chin. So, if you want a more masculine jawline without surgery, truSculpt® 3D could be the answer.
Gynecomastia Surgery
Enlarged male breasts, a condition known as gynecomastia, is quite common among men. While genetics plays the greatest role in development of gynecomastia, hormone levels, taking certain medications, weight gain or a combination of factors can cause men to develop swollen breast glandular tissue as well as excess fat in the chest area. Gynecomastia surgery removes the excess tissue and reshapes the chest and nipples for a more masculine appearance.
Most men who have tried to achieve a more masculine chest through diet and exercise without success will be candidates for gynecomastia surgery. However, it is important to note that if gynecomastia is caused by a significant hormonal imbalance, you may need to work with an endocrinologist as well.
Penis Enhancement
While society can put a lot of pressure on men to want more length or girth, the truth is most clients seeking penis enhancement are looking at it from a personal standpoint — they know they would be happier with more. In fact, nearly half of all men feel their penis is too small.
With male enhancement surgery, you have the option to increase the length, girth or both of your penis. This can give you greater confidence in the bedroom and help you feel better about your body overall.
Of course, this isn’t a comprehensive list. There are plenty of facial and body plastic surgeries that can help men look their best and reclaim their youth. Speak with a board-certified plastic surgeon to find out which procedures can best benefit you.
