Male Cosmetic Surgery Buzz
From Desperate Housewives to Hollywood, plastic surgery has generally targeted women. Recently however, men are jumping on board the cosmetic bandwagon. From liposuction to facelifts, plastic surgery procedures have lost much of their feminine aura and stigma and taken on a more masculine persona. Middle aged men have been the prime candidates for cosmetic enhancements. In fact one of the most popular surgeries for men is male breast reduction.
Dr. John Connors of Atlanta based Swan Center for Plastic Surgery said of this new trend, "For decades, men have been suffering the embarrassment and low-self esteem that accompanies enlarged male breasts. So it's no surprise then that men are openly embracing a procedure that allows them to combat enlarged breasts with very little pain or downtime." Enlarged male breasts are usually the result of a genetic condition known as gynecomastia."
Unfortunately for men plagued with gynecomastia, regular exercise and dieting does not remove the excess fat. It generally requires invasive treatment. Surgeons say they are treating a wide variety of men from teenagers to middle-aged men, as such breast issues affect all age groups. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons have said male breast reduction is in fact the fourth most popular procedure.
