Plastic surgery for men is gaining popularity. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS), the number of men undergoing plastic surgery is increasing, accounting for a total of approximately 7% of all cosmetic procedures in the country. Statistics indicate that most men choose cosmetic procedures to improve areas such as the facet, the upper trunk and, buttocks or calf augmentations. Learn about the 10 most common aesthetic procedures for men!

Mammoplasty

Each year about 25,000 men undergo a surgery known as mammoplasty. This is usually aimed at reducing the size of the men’s mammary glands. Male breasts are usually the result of a hormone imbalance, causing considerable enlargement. This cosmetic surgery has an average cost of $6,000 dollars and a recovery time of between two and six weeks.

Mastopexy: Popular plastic surgery for men

Although some aesthetic procedures are considered necessary, such as mammoplasty in men suffering from gynecomastia, mastopexy is as an option that could complement certain treatments. It involves lifting the pectoral area to give a more muscular appearance. In 2018 alone, more than 100,000 men underwent this surgery, which costs approximately $5,000. In 2020, the 87,000 mastopexies were performed on men.

Otoplasty surgery

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of an otoplasty is $3,000 dollars, although this figure depends on each case and the place where the surgery is performed. Otoplasty consists of reshaping the patient’s ears according to the aesthetic guidelines recommended by an expert surgeon. In 2020, there were 22,467 men who opted for this cosmetic procedure, which represents about 50% of the total number of otoplasties in that year. Recovery is about six weeks.

Rhinoplasty

The average cost of a rhinoplasty in the United States is $5,483 and, according to statistics, this cosmetic surgery is performed mainly on women. Of the more than 300,000 cases presented in 2020, only 65,121 were men. Although the number of men who choose to undergo rhinoplasty is not high, it continues to be one of the most common plastic surgeries.

Blepharoplasty

Each year, on average, more than 300,000 blepharoplasties are performed in the United States. This is an eyelid lift to give a younger appearance and the procedure has attracted thousands of men in recent years. Blepharoplasties remove hooded eyelids, removing a strategic amount of skin, muscle and fat, with an average recovery period of between 10 and 14 days.

Liposuction is another popular plastic surgery for men

Many men have resorted to plastic surgery to reduce their bellies. Liposuction involves sucking out excess fat in a surgical procedure that can last several hours. In 2020, the American Society for Plastic Surgery recorded more than 20,000 cases of liposuction in men, a figure that represents 11% of all patients who underwent this surgery.

Facelift

In 2020, 18,024 men visited doctors’ offices for facelift surgery to achieve a more youthful appearance for an average price of $8,000. The recovery period after a facelift is 4 to 6 weeks, although the final results take about three months.

Along with rhinoplasty, two of the most common procedures for men are chin augmentation and cheek implant surgeries, totaling approximately 37,000 surgeries a year. Of a total of 108,189 cheek implant surgeries, 28,638 were performed on men, while 22% of chin surgeries correspond to men.

Hair transplant

Contrary to other types of cosmetic surgeries, hair implants are performed, mostly, in men who suffer from some type of alopecia or excessive hair loss. The placement of hair implants costs between $4,000 and $15,000. Almost 70% of patients who undergo a hair implant are men, although the number of people who opt for this surgery is decreasing thanks to the emergence of new non-invasive treatments.

Neck lift

With age, the elasticity of the skin is gradually lost, resulting in excess skin in some areas of the body. One way to correct this situation is through surgery known as lifting or neck lift. Fourteen percent of these surgeries are performed on men, and have an average cost of about $6,000 dollars. Your recovery period lasts between 4 and 6 weeks.
