When someone mentions plastic surgery, who comes to mind? More than likely, you associate these types of procedures with women, but the stigma revolving around men when it comes to plastic surgery is finally dissipating. Men are becoming more comfortable with procedures aimed at helping them look their best.
Why the Stigma?
In our culture, men are seen as wiser and more trustworthy as they age. Gray hair, wrinkles and other signs of age are marks of distinction for men. For this reason, men have felt uncomfortable undergoing procedures designed to restore youthful appearance.
Changes are Happening
Men are finally realizing the benefits of plastic surgery, from appearing more youthful in the boardroom, to adding more confidence to their attitude. This change in attitude is happening across the beauty industry as a whole, with more choices in cosmetics being offered to men. Society is realizing that beauty procedures and products, and the confidence they provide, are no longer relegated to women.
This means that more and more men are considering surgical alternatives that they would not have considered a generation ago. This change is also being spurred by men in the tech industry. Tech is considered an industry that is monopolized by younger executives, so it is important to maintain a youthful appearance in order to remain relevant.
Procedures for Men
When it comes to surgical procedures, men want results while maintaining their masculine features. Men’s facial structures differ from women’s, so finding a plastic surgeon who is well-versed in these differences is important. Dr. Benjamin C.
