Liposuction is actually quite popular for improving body contour and sculpting a better figure. That goes for women a well as men. In fact, we’ve noticed more men willing to consider liposuction and other surgeries as a viable means to look their best.
Plastic Surgery Increasing in Popularity for Men
As more and more men have become attuned to the importance of their appearance and good first impressions, we’ve noticed a rise in cosmetic surgery among males. This is often done as a way of reducing wrinkles, fighting signs of advanced age, and helping patients look their fittest. For both men and women, this gives patients an edge in their personal and professional lives, and the confidence to excel in both.
Liposuction has been particularly popular among men given the difficulties of staying trim and fit with advanced age. Liposuction will get rid of those pockets of fat that a good diet and regular exercise simply cannot address.
Liposuction for the Abdominal Area
One of the most common targets for liposuction is the stomach and sides. This is especially important for men since excess fat tends to be distributed to the lower abdominal area and the love handles in males.
By undergoing liposuction for the abdominal area, a man can have the trim and toned stomach he’s wanted, bringing out the definition of the abs and reducing the padding of fat that’s common with the “dad bod.”
Liposuction for the Shoulder and Triceps
Another problem area as people get older is the upper arms. Get out of shape for a bit and the shoulders and triceps may start to look a little chubby or flabby. For minor problems with these parts of the arms, liposuction can work wonders. A little careful liposuction in the back portion of the shoulders and around the arm pit area can give you the definition and shape that you’ve always wanted to have but is difficult to achieve.
Liposuction for Male Breast Reduction
Men can sometimes suffer from an embarrassing condition known as gynecomastia. This is a problem in which the pectoral muscles appear effeminate and more like breasts. Typically starting around puberty and potentially occurring at different stages of adulthood, this can be the cause of extreme self-consciousness and even shame among men.
A little liposuction on the chest can help reduce the effeminate appearance of the pectoral region, restoring a man’s confidence and helping him feel great about his own body.
