Men and Plastic Surgery

Patient Question: Plastic surgery is often thought of as something women do, how can it help men? Are there some procedures that men commonly pursue?

Dr. Marotta’s Response: Plastic surgery is on the rise for the male population and it increases every year. Currently about 30% of all patients seeking plastic surgery are men. Rhinoplasty (Nose Job), eyelid, brow and facelifts, and hair transplantation are the most common procedures for men in my practice. All the options available to women to enhance their facial appearance are available to men. In treating my male patients, I maintain the distinctly masculine qualities to the face through an understanding of the differences between male and female facial anatomy.
