male plastic surgery: consider these treatments for natural-looking results

Most people outside of the plastic surgery industry would not be able to guess it, but the number of men seeking cosmetic treatments is steadily increasing. Part of the reason this trend remains a well-kept secret is that men are far less likely to talk about their procedures with their friends, and another part is because men tend to prefer results that are more natural-looking. As a leading plastic surgeon for male patients in New Jersey, Dr. Erwin Bulan describes some of the most popular procedures for men.

EYELID SURGERY

One of the first areas where signs of aging appear on the face is around the eyes. Bags and hollows beneath the eyes and drooping upper eyelids can make the face look tired and prematurely old. Subtle surgeries like lower blepharoplasty and upper blepharoplasty can reverse signs of aging in such a way that friends assume it’s due to better sleep.

LIPOSUCTION

Fat deposits can stubbornly cling to certain areas of the body like the abdomen, despite dieting and exercise. Liposuction is a great solution for men who want to recontour their midsections. For male patients, Dr. Bulan usually strives for a “toned” body shape rather than a curvy or overly skinny appearance.

NOSE RESHAPING

There are a variety of reasons why a man may decide to have rhinoplasty. Sometimes it’s to address a specific cosmetic issue like flattening a bump (dorsal hump) on the bridge or adjusting the size of the nostrils, while other times it is to create a harmonious shape that is proportional to the face’s other features.

GYNECOMASTIA SURGERY

Gynecomastia is a condition where a man develops excess breast tissue. While many men would be happy with muscular pecs, having fatty bulges can feminize their upper torso in an unappealing way. By removing some of the excess tissue and fat, Dr. Bulan can sculpt a more masculine chest shape.

INJECTABLES

Non-surgical procedures are also a hit with many male patients. Botox, a botulinum toxin injection, has become so popular with men, it has earned the nickname “Brotox.” The injection can freeze muscles to soften lines on the forehead to provide a younger appearance. Juvéderm, a hyaluronic acid-based filler, adds volume to the lower face to diminish wrinkles in that area. With men, Dr. Bulan usually takes a more modest approach to maintain natural-looking results.
