In San Antonio, cosmetic surgery is increasingly popular among men. Dr. Ortegon understands the needs of his male patients, and provides a variety of cosmetic procedures to help improve their appearance.

Healthy men who want to improve an area of their appearance can consider a variety of cosmetic procedures.
Botox
injections are popular with women and men who want to erase their frown lines for several months. Frown lines between your eyebrows and on your forehead can make you look older. Botox reduces the appearance of these lines by stopping action of specific facial muscles.

Body Contouring After Weight Loss
is popular with men who have lost significant weight. Body contouring procedures lift, tighten, and remove excess skin. Diet and exercise alone can reduce your weight, but they can’t shrink your skin.

The results of liposuction are long-lasting assuming that you maintain a healthy weight. The fat cells that are targeted by liposuction are permanently removed, but it is possible to gain fat in other areas if you do not keep up with a healthy diet and exercise routine.
Fat cells in the treatment area are permanently removed by liposuction. However, it is possible to gain weight in other areas of the body if a healthy lifestyle isn’t maintained.
Liposuction and CoolSculpting both have the purpose of removing unwanted fat, and their end results are typically comparable. Choosing which is better for you depends on your schedule, the amount of fat you wish to remove, and whether or not you are capable or willing to have surgery.
Male breast reduction surgery is generally safe. Like all surgeries, there are some risks. These include infection or adverse reactions to anesthesia. Many complications can be avoided by disclosing existing health issues with your doctor before surgery and following aftercare instructions.
After a male breast reduction surgery, patients take about a week off from work to rest and recover. After about three weeks, most patients can return to exercising or other more strenuous activities.
Gynecomastia may improve without surgery depending on its cause. For example, some cases are simply the result of the patient gaining weight, and adopting a healthy lifestyle may help resolve the gynecomastia. Other patients may find that ceasing taking medications will reduce their gynecomastia. If the condition does not resolve itself, surgery is always an option.
Male breast reduction is generally permanent, but excessive weight gain among other factors may cause the condition to recur. Your doctor can advise steps to help make sure your results are long-lasting.
