MEN'S PROCEDURES

We believe that interested patients need to be well informed about the available procedures for men so that they can make an informed decision about their options and their surgeon. This includes the processes of preparing for any procedures for men, as well as the recovery periods after each. Your surgeon will meet with you about your concerns and personal goals. They will examine you and tell you what they can accomplish for you. They will also advise you about what specific procedures for men will involve in terms specific to your unique situation.

Choosing a surgeon is an intensely personal decision. We encourage you to ask questions of our surgeons and our team. We want you to feel comfortable with us and your decision to have surgery at The Waldorf Center.

For those who are deciding on procedures for men, consider these recommendations to help you get the most out of your journey and results: It’s important to be realistic about the outcome of any procedures for men, make sure you’re aware of the risks involved, avoid smoking or drinking alcohol prior to any procedure (for men or otherwise), ensure that you’re as healthy and fit as possible before a surgical procedure, and seek advice about any risks involved if you have ongoing health conditions or are overweight.

There are numerous factors that should be considered for successful procedures for men, such as skin thickness, beard growth, and body type. Men’s skin is typically significantly thicker than women’s. Men also have more blood vessels in the face, so they heal differently than women do. Hair on the head and body will also need to be considered when it comes to procedures for men. Finally, beauty standards are different for men and women, so patients who choose procedures for men may not always want the same type of results as women achieve. Typically, for example, men prefer results that leave their face looking angular, defined, and rested as opposed to soft, rounded, and youthful.

Men of all ages and walks of life can benefit from aesthetic procedures for men. Regardless of what their goals are—such as a more sculpted or balanced nose or chin, a slimmer waistline, or a rejuvenated-looking face—an increasing number of male patients are benefiting from these procedures for men. Many procedures for men are just as suitable for female patients, however male patients may not always choose the same treatments as women. Neurotoxins, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), liposuction, rhinoplasty, neck lift, gynecomastia surgery, and hair restoration treatments are among the most popular procedures for men.
