Objectives: Describe some of the different approaches and concepts of aesthetics as applied to men having cosmetic facial surgery.
Introduction: Aesthetic facial surgery in men is increasing in popularity. Men may have different reasons for seeking surgical enhancement or rejuvenation than woman and should be treated accordingly.
Materials / method: In order to identify differences in treating men with cosmetic surgery comparted to women, we analyzed all cases over the past 5 years on men operated on in the senior surgeon’s private practice.
Results: Men accounted for 5% of aesthetic surgical cases. In terms of facial surgery in men, face and neck lifts were the most popular procedures followed by eyelid enhancement, liposuction to the neck, chin enhancement and rhinoplasty and lastly brow lifting. No buccal lipectomies were performed in men over the past 5 years. Men had a higher frequency of associated sleep apnea and in terms of rhinoplasty, more rhinoplasty revisions than women.
Conclusion: Overall, men are a bit more conservative than women with lower expectations. Surgical techniques should be respectful of men’s desires to look natural as if nothing was done.
