San Antonio Cosmetic SurgeryCosmetic Surgery Targets Specific Concerns for Men

When you look back through history, you will find a great deal of evidence that points to men’s interest in looking good. Like women, men have a certain image of themselves, and this typically involves specific curvature and angles in specific places. Many men learn that such curves and angles, such sculpture, is not always passed down through the family lineage.

A man could spend hours in the gym and still not attain the structural profile he desires. The fact is, this is harder to achieve than most people imagine. Today, we are seeing that it is much easier for men to discuss their desire for muscle tone and that coveted “V” shape. More than that, we are witnessing an incredible increase (300-plus percent!) in the number of men undergoing cosmetic procedures.

Darn, that David!

If you have ever seen the Statue of David, you may wonder how any person could naturally look like that. Our lifestyle today is far different than the time of David, and that means that a little help may be needed. Men who want to be sculpted can do so at the hands of a trusted plastic surgeon.

One of the fastest-growing trends in male cosmetic surgery is a male breast reduction. Treatment for gynecomastia has been desperately needed. Before male breast reduction with liposuction and strategic tissue (or gland) removal, men often hid their frame; many believed that excess breast tissue was their fault! The effects of gynecomastia can be devastating to a man’s psyche. By the same token, resolving this issue can make an enormous impact on quality of life.

Taming the Beast

The belly can be quite the beast, no matter how well you try to eat. Many of the men we meet need just a little help to remove the superficial layer of adipose tissue that is hiding the muscles they have fought hard to tone. Abdominal liposuction may also extend around to those pesky love handles. After surgery, there is a greater opportunity to show off a healthy six-pack and to maintain it through healthy lifestyle habits.
