Can Men Get Nose Jobs?

If you are a man, and you’re unhappy with the size or the shape of your nose, you may be thinking there’s nothing you can do about it – nose jobs are just for women, right? Wrong! Rhinoplasty (the medical term for a nose job) can help both men and women who want to make a change to their nose!

What Can Rhinoplasty Do for You?

You may worry that a nose job may make you look less masculine – however, the right plastic surgeon will know how to enhance your masculine features while making the changes you want. Rhinoplasty is a procedure that is customized for the patient, so that he or she gets the look they want. Rhinoplasty can help:

• A bump on the nose
• A crooked nose
• A nose that is too wide or narrow
• A nose that looks too feminine
• A nose that is disfigured because of a previous trauma or injury

It can even help patients who have difficulty breathing, who snore, and who have sleeping problems because of the nose. During your consultation, your doctor will meet with you to discuss the changes you would like to see and any problems your nose is causing you. You should be physically healthy and have realistic expectations about the outcome when considering rhinoplasty. It is typically an outpatient procedure that is performed under general anesthesia, but it can also be done with local anesthesia with or without sedation. The surgery usually only takes less than 2 hours, and patients can typically get back to work within a couple of days, although it may take a few weeks to entirely get back to your old routine. Although you may see some changes to your nose as you age, rhinoplasty does give patients permanent results.

If you are a man who is unhappy with his nose, you should know that rhinoplasty isn’t just for women! Dr. Weinstein will work with you so that you get the “new” nose that you want.

Should You Consider a Facelift After Weight Loss?

You have worked hard and have lost a lot of weight after years of eating a healthy diet and hitting the gym three times a week. But, unfortunately, the battle may not be over. When we lose fat, the skin still remains, and it can affect your face in ways that might even make you regret losing weight. A facelift may be the next step to consider!

Why Consider a Facelift?

After all of the hard work you have done and the positive changes you have made, it doesn’t quite seem fair that now you are left with some unwanted effects. Here’s what a facelift can do for you.

Younger people have elasticity to their skin and it promptly snaps back into place after a lot of weight has been lost. However, as we age we lose that elasticity, and weight loss can result in sagging skin and deep folds in the face. Your mouth may look permanently downturned because of this sagging, and it may also make you look like you are always tired. You may also notice a double chin, drooping jowls, and a “turkey neck.”

A facelift can be performed as an outpatient procedure, and it can be performed at any age as long as you are in good health. Your surgeon will remove that excess skin, tighten the underlying muscles, and reset the skin at a higher level. Liposuction may be performed to get rid of excess fat. You may want to combine a facelift with a brow lift, nose reshaping, fillers, or eyelid surgery — you and your surgeon can discuss your options and what combination of procedures might be right for you.

You deserve to celebrate all of your hard work and your weight loss, but you also deserve to look as good as you feel. If you feel like your skin is droopy and saggy after your weight loss, a facelift may be the answer – it will give you natural-looking results that will keep you looking young and healthy for years. Contact Weinstein Plastic Surgery Center in Chester, New Jersey, for a facelift consultation. Call (908) 879-2222 for an appointment today!
