It should not be surprising that men of all backgrounds are seeking plastic surgery. In the modern era of fast-paced metropolitan life and social media, it is more compelling to look energetic, healthy, and athletically fit than ever.
Thanks to advancements in male-oriented plastic surgery and the skill of doctors like Dr. Agullo, men can benefit from new methods for approaching traditional plastic surgeries.
Facelift surgery is one of the traditional surgeries now revolutionized for men’s needs. To give potential patients a clearer understanding of male facelifts, it is important to highlight some of the differences between female and male facelifts.
What Are Male Facelifts?
The male facelift is designed to smooth the wrinkles in a man’s face by tightening skin and repositioning the sagging tissues. In this way, men who receive a facelift can distinctly restore and enhance youthful characteristics.
Facelifts have been modified for men thanks to advancements in the masculinization of facelift techniques and contour methods. The flexibility in treatment afforded by multiple facelift options allows men to choose from a spectrum of conservative or dramatic corrections. These include a full facelift, mid-facelift, and a mini-facelift.
Dr. Agullo is at the forefront of male plastic surgery, ensuring that your treatment is unique to your needs and transformative to your life.
How Are Facelifts Modified for Men’s Needs?
Generally, men have and desire more squared-off faces, encouraging some to receive more conservative approaches to facelift surgery that highlight the jawline. Even so, more dramatic corrections can be applied when needed to create sharp and angular contours. And thanks to the advancements in male cosmetic techniques, subtle or significant changes can look natural without causing the face to look “done” or pulled back.
Men have different ideas when it comes to beauty and aesthetics than women. For example, with the rising trend of men sporting facial hair, men who receive a facelift may want to draw attention to their beards and masculine youth and away from sagging skin around the neck. This can be done by combining their facelift with a neck lift. Strong, youthful, and powerful facial contours desired by men of all backgrounds can now be achieved by eliminating the infamous “double-chin” with the removal of excess skin and fat. Minor liposuction treatments can be performed to contour the face, defining the jawline and chin’s bold and masculine characteristics.
Some men desiring more chin and jawline definition choose to combine their facelift with chin augmentation surgery to place a chin implant.
In addition to varying desires, men’s anatomies and needs are different, and these differences must be addressed. This is particularly true for incision placement, as male patients have to be more cautious about hair recession. Fortunately, facelifts that include forehead lifts are modified for men to conceal and carefully hide incisions.
