New York, Men and Plastic Surgery
February 8th, 2009 Kenneth M. Rose MDNew 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.
