Cosmetic Surgeries for the Seasons
Cosmetic surgery is generally seen as being for women. Traditionally, women have been the ones to have liposuctions, facelifts and breast augmentations. Today, the mindset towards cosmetic surgery, in general, is changing with the process being much more open towards people of varying backgrounds, income levels, and even genders. Overall, men feel that there is less stigma towards having these elective procedures done. At OC Cosmetic Surgery Clinique in Newport Beach, California, Dr. Tavoussi offers a variety of procedures that can help men feel more comfortable in their own bodies and reverse the signs of skin aging.
Men’s skin ages in a similar way to women’s skin. The amount of elastin and collagen in the skin decreases, leading to sagging, thin skin. Men may want to consider a facial procedure that can tighten the skin and sculpt the muscles and tissues beneath to give them a younger, leaner look. An eyelid lift can improve the look of the skin around the top of the eyes, removing excessive tissue and, in some cases, improving the line of sight. A forehead lift could also be used to remove the furrows found in the forehead.
Alternative Cosmetic Procedures for Men
Men can also consider less drastic procedures, such as collagen injections or Botox injections, which can add plumpness to the face or reduce wrinkles. Dr. Tavoussi commonly uses Juvaderm or Restylane for fillers. These must be injected every few months to maintain the plump look. They are often used in the cheeks or forehead. Botox is another option that men can use if they are concerned about fine wrinkles, particularly around their eyes. Botox temporarily paralyzes the very small muscles beneath the skin’s surface. Botox must be used every three to four months to maintain good results.
Men who have lost a great deal of weight have several options open to them. Liposuctions are not unheard of for men who still have a stubborn weight that they cannot lose through diet and exercise. However, a tummy tuck or body lift can greatly enhance the shape of a man’s body by removing excessive skin and tissues and sculpting the underlying muscles.
Men throughout the Orange County area do not have to feel that they have no options open to them for reshaping their bodies or maintaining their skin. A consultation with Dr. Tavoussi is the first step to discovering options for body sculpting and skin care.
