Continuing from the previous edition, this round of cosmetic procedures for men will focus on more invasive procedures that require a
skilled plastic surgeon. The following are brief synopses for five of the most
popular procedures being done to men today.
Hair Transplantation
Baldness is something that affects millions of men and can have
devastating affects on their confidence. Hair transplantation can range in
price from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars, depending on how extensive
the treatment is. The main reason why its becoming increasingly popular and
available is that it is the most effective treatment available. It literally
involved taking viable and working hair follicles and placing them, either in
groups or strips, into areas where the follicles have ceased to function. The
transplanted follicles continue to grow as normal with no adverse affects.
Laser Skin Resurfacing
The best way to describe laser skin resurfacing is to think of
sculpting with clay. A highly skilled and trained doctor removes layers of skin
with a laser, like a sculptor shaves away fine layers of clay to perfect their
masterpiece. There is about a day or two of down time to recover from it,
mainly depending on the extend of treatment. The results can literally be like
shaving away scars, imperfections and years away from your face.
Liposuction
Most commonly associated with woman’s cosmetic surgery,
liposuction is available through a variety of methods. Traditionally, metal
tubes are inserting under the skin and solutions are injected in then pulled
out along with excess fatty deposits. In other methods, the treatments are
delivered purely externally using such things as extreme cold and ultrasonic
waves.
Gynecomastia
If you’ve been heavy, lost weight, had more definition and lost
muscle tone, or if you’ve suffered from a hormone imbalance, you may have what
appear to be the male version of breasts. Gynecomastia is a type of operation
that can remove the excess tissue and reshape the chest and pectoral area into
the proper masculine form.
Eyelid Surgery – Blepharoplasty
As people age the skin can become loose and sag, especially around
the eyes. Blepharoplasty is a fairly broad term for procedures that involve
restructuring the eyelids. The procedure can be done to help improve eye sight
and give a more youthful appearance. Men who worked outside a lot during their
youth, may find this type of procedure helpful in reducing the damage that
squinting, and sun exposure, may have had with the skin around their eyes.
