Most Common Plastic Surgery Options for Males: 7 Ways to Boost Your Look & Confidence

More men than ever are embracing cosmetic procedures to enhance their appearance and boost their confidence. With society placing a premium on looking young and fit, men of all ages are seeking cosmetic plastic surgery and nonsurgical aesthetic treatments.

What is the most common plastic surgery for males? Here’s a look at some of the most popular surgical and nonsurgical options for men who want to look more vigorous and attractive and feel more confident:

Surgical Procedures

1. Rhinoplasty (Nose Job)

Younger men and even adolescent males who are self-conscious about the size or shape of their noses make rhinoplasty one of the most popular male plastic surgery procedures. When performed by a skilled, board-certified plastic surgeon, a nose job can:

• Reshape the nose for improved facial harmony
• Correct structural defects that impair breathing
• Address issues resulting from injuries or congenital disorders

Men often opt for rhinoplasty to achieve a more masculine nose shape or to correct a deviated septum.

2. Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

Saggy or hooded upper eyelids and bulges under the eyes create a tired, grumpy appearance that can make you appear years older than you are. This can also be a drawback in professional and social settings. Upper blepharoplasty removes sagging upper eyelid skin, and lower blepharoplasty reduces under eye bags and puffiness, creating a more alert and youthful appearance.

3. Facelift Surgery

The sharp increase in work-related Zoom calls and video chats after the pandemic coincided with an increase in men getting facelift surgery. The technique used for a male facelift is slightly different from that used for women’s facelifts. Incision placement has to avoid disrupting facial hair follicles, and the results should retain your masculine bone structure. The primary focus is more on the lower face and neck, creating a more well-defined jawline and chin.

4. Liposuction

Liposuction is a popular cosmetic procedure for men who want sculpted abs or a more masculine-looking chest. Many men entering middle age who develop excess belly fat or love handles, even though they remain active, turn to liposuction for body contouring. Neck liposuction is also popular for men with a double chin.

Nonsurgical Procedures

5. KYBELLA®

One of the most common reasons men seek cosmetic treatment is self-consciousness about a double chin. As mentioned, liposuction is a surgical approach to reducing fat that causes a double chin. KYBELLA is an FDA-approved injectable treatment that’s particularly popular among men for addressing submental (under the chin) fullness. Results appear gradually, and downtime is minimal compared to liposuction.

6. BOTOX® and Dermal Fillers

Injectable treatments such as BOTOX and dermal fillers are increasingly popular among men. These quick, minimally invasive procedures can:

• Reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines
• Add volume to areas of the face that have lost fullness
• Provide a more youthful, refreshed appearance

Many men opt for these treatments to maintain a competitive edge in the workplace or feel more confident in social situations.

7. Physiq Body Contouring

Physiq is a revolutionary, noninvasive body contouring treatment gaining popularity among men. You can reduce fat and build muscle in a single treatment. It combines heat energy with electrical muscle stimulation to target fat and muscle tissue. The treatment can be applied to multiple areas, including the abdomen, flanks, buttocks, and thighs, making it a versatile option for men looking to enhance their physique without surgery
