Cosmetic Work: This Year's Hot Father's Day Gift?

Posted June 11, 2012 in Plastic Surgery News

Think cosmetic work is just for women? Think again! Several websites are reporting today on an ever-growing Father's Day trend: giving dad the gift of cosmetic treatment.

In the past, cosmetic treatment was typically associated with the fairer sex. Today, that's simply not the case. Men's attitudes toward cosmetic work have changed for all sorts of reasons, not the least of which is a desire to stay competitive in a difficult job market. And, with Dad's day just around the corner, let's take a look at a few of the top procedures among men.

Here is out list of the Top Cosmetic Procedures for Father's Day:

• Nose Reshaping: According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, Nose Reshaping is the number-one male cosmetic surgery in the US. Also known as “rhinoplasty,” nose reshaping aims to correct a nose that appears too large, has a bump, seems too wide or appears crooked.
• BOTOX® & Dysport®: When it comes to minimally-invasive wrinkle treatments for men, BOTOX and Dysport are the number-one category by far. Essentially muscle relaxers, these injections work to reduce the appearance of facial creases. Popular targets include frown lines, smile lines and crow's feet.
• Microdermabrasion: If your skin has seen better days, Microdermabrasion may be the answer for you. This treatment freshens the face using a stream of fine particles. As one of the most versatile treatments around, Microderm can often improve the appearance of sun damage, scarring, wrinkles and other unwanted skin problems.

Male Patients Require Special Care

As a male plastic surgeon, I understand full well that men are looking for something a little different when they come in for a plastic surgery consultation. Simply put, males have different medical needs and cosmetic goals than their female counterparts. Most often, the number-one concern is achieving a natural look. Thankfully, this can very often be achieved.

Using a more conservative treatment style, we can work to enhance your appearance and shave off a number of years without compromising your natural, masculine looks. We understand that male patients simply want to look better – to look as though they had no work done at all. So, if this sounds about right to you, take the first step – schedule a consultation today.
