Men and women have largely the same cosmetic operations — but not the same anatomy, and that changes the surgical plan more than most consultations explain. Male skin is thicker with higher collagen content, so fine work under it shows less and swelling lasts longer. Facial skin is more vascular, which means more bruising. Facial skin bears beard hair, so a lift that ignores the hair-bearing boundary moves the sideburn permanently. Fat in the flank and chest is denser and more fibrous than most technique descriptions assume. And an enlarged male chest is frequently glandular rather than fatty, which is why it does not respond to weight loss. Our new guide walks through each area — nose, eyelids, face, body, chest, jaw — and what a man should actually be asking before surgery. Written by a board-certified facial plastic surgeon at a plastic surgery clinic, citing his own published research on nasal valve reconstruction, peri-orbital rejuvenation and twenty years of liposuction practice.
