Although plastic surgery has historically been more common for women, more and more men are now turning towards plastic surgery for a variety of treatment options. In fact, the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) reports a 29 percent increase in male cosmetic procedures between 2000 and 2018.

According to Global News, “while Canadian statistics don’t exist, these trends are comparable to what’s being seen in Canada.”

This spike of interest in male plastic surgery has changed the cosmetic landscape, with more clinics and surgeons catering their services to the unique needs of men. To efficiently meet the growing demand for male plastic surgery, GraceMed offers male options for plastic surgery in Toronto and across the GTA at our multiple clinic locations

Men of different age groups consider surgery to improve their appearance and boost their self-confidence, and there are a variety of popular procedures that men are turning to as a result. Learn more about the popular plastic surgery procedures for men and the benefits they offer.

Common Plastic Surgeries for Men

Gynecomastia/Mammoplasty

Gynecomastia, also known as Mammoplasty, is male plastic surgery designed to reduce breast size. Some men’s breasts may grow large due to excessive weight gain, which can cause the male areola to stretch. A male breast reduction surgery removes excess fat and tissues from the chest while flattening and enhancing chest contours.

Although enlarged male breasts comes with minor risks and low chances of long-term complications, many men flock towards the surgery as the condition can hinder their confidence. If you are considering gynecomastia in Toronto, visit GraceMed’s clinics in Burlington and North York, where specialized surgeons offer breast reduction for both men and women.

Liposuction

Liposuction is a common form of plastic surgery that men lean towards to remove stubborn fat from specific body areas. The procedure uses suction to remove fat from the abdomen, hips, thighs, arms, and buttocks while contouring the treatment area. Liposuction was named one of the top five male plastic surgery procedures in 2020.

Men who opt for liposuction generally have a stable body weight with specific spots containing more fat than other areas. Removing unwanted fat can help men regain their confidence and reduce the risk of potential health problems from being overweight. GraceMed clinics offer male liposuction in Toronto and the Great Toronto Area. Consult the experts at our clinic to determine if you’re a suitable candidate for the treatment.

Tummy Tuck/Abdominoplasty

Many types of plastic surgery for men, such as the tummy tuck, are seeing a rise in demand. A tummy tuck, also known as an abdominoplasty, can help men with excess abdominal fat achieve a toned core. Excess skin and fat are removed during the surgery, while the connective tissue in the abdomen is tightened.

An individual’s skin can lose elasticity with age or significant weight loss, so a tummy tuck is one of the most helpful male plastic surgery procedures. It can also help a man feel more confident and look better in their clothes. If you are looking for a tummy tuck in Toronto for men, consider booking a consultation at one of GraceMed’s clinic locations.

Face & Neck Lift

A face and neck lift can simultaneously firm and tighten the skin of the face and neck to make you look younger. The cosmetic procedure reduces loose skin and folds on the cheeks and jawline by pulling back the skin on the face and surgically alerting them to return the face to a youthful shape. GraceMed offers a specialized male facelift in Toronto for those who want to reverse the signs of aging.

Although the face and neck lifts are a common plastic surgery for men, the treatment isn’t suitable for everyone. Face and neck lifts are ideal for men who seek to reduce the signs of aging and have a sufficient amount of facial laxity to make the procedure worthwhile.

One of GraceMed’s facelift specialists, Dr. Reza, believes that “there is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to cosmetic surgery.” As an award-winning industry expert with 15 years of experience, Dr. Reza provides patients with cosmetic treatments that best suit their aesthetic needs. Set an appointment with our facelift and other surgical and non-surgical experts to determine which treatment you require.

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

A blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, solves aesthetic and functional problems around the eyelids, is one of the most common forms of plastic surgery for men. Excess skin around the eyes is removed and delicately closed with a very fine thread during the surgery. GraceMed offers under eye blepharoplasty in Mississauga, Burlington, North York & Toronto.

Many men undergo eyelid surgery to achieve a youthful look and reduce the fullness of the upper eyelid or tighten hanging skin under the eye. Although these symptoms signify aging, some men get blepharoplasty at a younger age to remove inherited traits.

Forehead/Brow Lift

Many men might find a sagging brow unappealing. A forehead lift, also known as a brow lift, surgically corrects drooping eyebrows while softening worrying expressions due to frown lines. During the forehead/brow lift, the endoscope is inserted into several small incisions placed just behind the hairline. The procedure includes lifting the skin and removing or altering the muscles.

Men who have frown lines that make them appear angry usually undergo surgery to appear more relaxed and youthful. Many individuals also opt for a brow lift to reduce sagging brows that hood the eyelids.

Otoplasty/Ear Surgery

Otoplasty is an ear surgery that can improve the ear’s shape, position, or proportion. The procedure involves making an incision either on the back of the ear or inside the ear folds. It may include removing cartilage or skin, folding or shaping, or grafting cartilage to the ear.

Some men have defects in the ear structure at birth or due to injury, and otoplasty can correct the issue. The surgery also appeals to those with overly large ears – a condition called macrotia. Many individuals undergo this surgery to improve their self-confidence or solve birth and injury defects that have no other solutions.

Botox/Prescription Injections

As one of the most popular cosmetic procedures nationwide, many men like to enjoy the benefits of Botox. Botox or prescription injections reduce wrinkles and help the user achieve a more youthful look. Botox injections block signals from the nerves to the muscles, stopping the injected muscle from contracting, causing the wrinkles to relax.

As prescription injections are becoming more popular among men, it is often referred to as “Brotox,” – a play on the name for Botox. The most popular reason men get Botox is to reduce wrinkles. Some men may even lean on Botox to treat health conditions, such as excessive sweating, migraines, and neck spasms.

Double Chin Treatment

A double chin treatment consists of fat dissolve injections with deoxycholic acid. Known as Kybella™ in the United States, the compound causes the fat cells at the treatment site to break down, reducing the appearance of a double chin. After the injection, the acid destroys fat cells beneath the chin area to prevent the body from storing fat in the area.

Although a double chin has no significant health risks, it may hinder the confidence of men who live excess chin fat. Men dislike having a double chin because a firm jawline is considered more masculine.

Many men flock towards a double chin treatment to eliminate the fat that may be affecting their self-esteem. Other men may opt for this treatment when diet and exercise do not improve their double chin appearance.

Dermal Fillers & Injectables

Facial dermal fillers help men with age management achieve a more youthful look. The cosmetic enhancement targets many age-related skin concerns, such as crow’s feet, loss of cheek volume, thin lips, and fine lines.

Men may get fillers for different reasons than women. According to an article, men are quicker to trust the person performing the treatment and more satisfied with the results. Sometimes, men want fillers to look better overall without improving a specific area of their face.

Skin Rejuvenation

Many men want to improve their facial appearance without undergoing surgical treatments. GraceMed offers numerous skin rejuvenation treatments such as Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacials, chemical peels, skin tightening, and laser skin treatment. The treatment you require depends on your skin goals. You can schedule a GraceMed consultation appointment to determine the type of treatment that can best help your skin.

Men choose skin rejuvenation treatments for various reasons. Some people want to tighten their skin after drastic weight loss, others want to look better for their partners, and some want to achieve a more youthful look.

Why Men are Leaning Towards Plastic Surgery

Although plastic surgery and men aren’t always discussed simultaneously, the interest in plastic surgery procedures for men is becoming more common. As more men are opening up about their plastic surgery experience, others are encouraged to ditch any stigmas around plastic surgery and get treatment when necessary.

An American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) survey found that 31 percent of men are “extremely likely” to consider a cosmetic procedure.

Boost Self-Confidence

Since plastic and cosmetic surgery can help people improve specific conditions, it can restore confidence. Whether a man is insecure about a particular issue or aiming to look more youthful, plastic surgery might solve numerous problems. Looking or feeling better might enable a man to feel more confident in their skin.

Less Time Spent on Physical Maintenance

Many men prioritize their time at the gym to maintain their bodies. However, it can be challenging to visit the gym frequently when you’re swamped with work and other responsibilities. The ability to get rid of extra fat through liposuction and tummy tucks can encourage men to opt for plastic surgery.

Although these treatments are not a substitute for a healthy and active life, they can reduce the burden.

Recovery is Not as Rigorous

The care for men before and after plastic surgery might differ from a woman’s preparation and recovery because the two genders recover differently. A study found that surgery might be more unpleasant for women than men. The report found that women wake up faster from anesthesia and are less sensitive to anesthetic drugs. Women also recover slower than men and suffer from side effects such as nausea and vomiting.

Many of the side effects for men before and after plastic surgery are similar to women. However, since male plastic surgery recovery isn’t a rigorous process, many people are drawn to the treatments.

Please a Partner

Although male plastic surgery is becoming more common due to its numerous benefits, many men lean on treatments to please their partners. An AAFPRS survey found that 31 percent of respondents reported a willingness to please a partner to make a “fix.”

Look Less Tired & Stressed

Plastic surgeries such as a facelift and blepharoplasty can improve the skin in different ways while reducing signs of aging. One of the most common reasons for male plastic surgery is the want to look less tired and stressed. When people are stressed, it often shows on their faces and sometimes creates sagging brows, which can be altered with a brow lift.

Remain Competitive at Work

Sometimes, men consider plastic surgery to remain competitive at their job. While many of the men had their unique reasons, 25 of the percent of the AAFPRS survey respondents shared they would consider a procedure to remain competitive on the job.

Whether or not male plastic surgery is a necessity for a job depends on the nature of the job. Some men’s plastic surgery methods help individuals look younger, which can benefit actors. Other positions such as fitness trainers or models may also want to enhance their looks to remain superior at work.

Keep Up with the Trend

As more men are opening up about their interest in plastic surgery, others are following their footsteps and entering the world of male plastic surgery. As more men post their plastic surgery experiences online, others are open to experiencing male plastic surgery. One of the most common men plastic surgery trends is Botox, allowing men to reverse signs of aging and improve the texture of their skin.
