Men are as much prone to aging as women. Historically however, it has not been common for men to have plastic surgery. Even today, men comprise less than 20% of patients who undergo cosmetic procedures. This is changing however, and more men are seeking rejuvenative and cosmetic procedures to stay youthful and to improve their appearance. The purpose of the facial rejuvenation procedures is to remove the signs of aging in the face by pulling the skin and the structures underneath the skin in an upward and backward direction, thereby counteracting the effects of gravity. The beneficial effects of a face-lift, eyelid surgery, necklift and other types of facial cosmetic procedures can vary depending on the patient's anatomy and their lifestyle. In addition, the role of heredity is also important in the effect that the cosmetic procedures has in the patient's overall appearance.
There are many procedures that can help counteract the affects of aging. Modifications of Facelift, eyelid surgery, necklift or browlift are used for facial rejuvenation in men. In addition procedures such as nasal shaping or ear repositioning can be performed on men to improve the shape or position of these structures. Virtually all cosmetic procedures that are currently being done for women can with slight modifications be applied to men. A face-lift for example can be done for a man and have much the same affects that it does for women. We would of course modify the facelift to keep the masculine features.
After surgery there will be a moderate amount of swelling and bruising. You cannot do facial cosmetic procedures and plan to go back to work the following week. Most patients elect to take between one to three weeks off work depending on what is being done. This gives them adequate time to recover from surgery and to be seen without drawing attention. Although most of the evidence of surgery has disappeared by the end of this period the ultimate result of your procedure will not be evident until several weeks have passed. The swelling in the tissues will slowly resolve and become normal over the ensuing weeks. After a short period you may resume your normal level activity.
