Pickings have never been better for patients seeking plastic surgery. The economic downturn has forced a lot of surgeons to slash their prices and give all kinds of discounts to attract new patients.
If you are interested in surgery, fillers or Botox, please make sure you are receiving these services from a Board Certified surgeon and make sure that you understand all of the services the price includes. For example, many surgeons charge extra for garments, photos, “cosmeceuticals” and other extras that should be explained before you sign on the dotted line. Also, and most importantly, make sure the surgery is performed in a certified operating facility.
Remember, we have to make a living just like everyone else but safety, care and honesty never changes.

New York City is a business center of all kinds. As such, men of all ages and in all different occupations want plastic surgery. They need to look good just like women. Whether it’s an aging businessman who wants to keep his edge in the boardroom, a young model or someone who is freshly divorced and back in the singles market, men, like women, have their own reasons for plastic surgery.
Usually, for me at least,liposuction of the love handle areas and the belly tend to be the most common operation. Others include, eyelid surgery, facelifts and Botox injections as well as other facial fillers.
Some procedures like gynecomastia (male breast enlargement) and prominent ears are also very common. In fact, I’ve done many more ear pinnings on men than on women.
Overall, women make up most of the plastic surgery patients nationwide, but just like women, men are patients too and they all have their own particular reasons for looking better.
