Facial Procedures for Men

Plastic surgery is all about looking good and giving people the confidence they need and deserve to have. And it’s not just for women – men want to look good and feel confident, too! At the Weinstein Plastic Surgery Center, men have a variety of procedures to choose from to help them look and feel their best.

Brow lift

You may not even realize how your brow can affect the rest of your face. Lines and saggy skin can make you look older than you are and perpetually angry or worried. With a brow lift, excess skin is removed and the remaining skin is tightened for very youthful results.

Neck lift

The neck is another area that is often ignored when people are considering a plastic surgery procedure, but, like the brow, how the neck looks can really make a difference to the rest of the face. If the neck has excess fat, it can cause unsightly “turkey wattles.” During a neck lift, excess skin and fat are removed and the neck muscles are lifted to get rid of wattles and give you a smooth, younger-looking neck.

Eyelid surgery

Excess skin and fat around the eyes can make your eyes look puffy, tired, and old. Eyelid surgery gets rid of that excess tissue to make eyes look younger, brighter, and more alert. It can also be done for medical reasons – too much skin around the eyes can reduce your field of vision, which is not only annoying but can be dangerous.

Facelift

More and more men are opting for this procedure because it comes with dramatic results. It removes wrinkles and tightens sagging tissue, leaving you with refreshed, toned, and younger-looking skin. A facelift is also the perfect time to get other things done, such as a brow lift, ear surgery to reshape the ears or make them smaller, or eyelid surgery.

There is nothing wrong with wanting to look younger and feel your best. More and more, men are deciding to have plastic surgery and are loving the results they see.

3 Myths About Facelifts Debunked

Although non-invasive facial rejuvenation procedures like Botox and fillers are some of the most popular treatments that we provide, surgical procedures like facelifts have their perks. During a facelift, we will surgically lift and tighten the skin to give patients a more youthful look. If you are on the fence about getting a facelift, this article will debunk three common myths about this popular surgery.

Myth 1: People Will Be Able to Tell

Looking like you had work done on your face may not be the thing that you are going for. As long as you go with a trusted surgeon like Dr. Weinstein, nobody ever has to know that you had work done, but they will notice that you look a lot younger. Not only will your incisions be hidden, but we will tighten the face in a way that looks more natural than anything.

Myth 2: The Surgeon I Go To Doesn’t Matter

One of the best things that you can do when you elect to have a surgical procedure done like a facelift is to go with a licensed, trained, and well-respected surgeon. Although plastic surgeons are required to undergo rigorous training, they are not all created equal. When you come into our office, you can rest assured that your face will be in great hands. Dr. Larry Weinstein has been practicing medicine for years and has seen just about it all.

Myth 3: They don’t work

With a facelift, our goal is to ensure that you get real results that you are excited about. If you feel like Botox and fillers aren’t doing what they use to, or if you feel like your face is losing a lot of collagen, then a facelift may be the way to go. After you have healed and the swelling has gone own, you will see full results that are worth bragging about.

5 Treatments That More Men Are Flocking To

Typically, when patients think about cosmetic surgeries, they associate them with females, but did you know that we offer surgeries to men too? Yep, you read that right, and more and more men want to undergo surgeries to get treatments to help them age a bit more manly. Let’s take a closer look at five of the most common surgeries that we treat men with.

Facelift

Facelifts can do wonders for both men and women. Usually, we see men at our office for facelifts when they start having poor self-esteem because of a loss of collagen and volume in their skin. If you are a man whose skin is starting to droop, then we may recommend a facelift. During this procedure, we will actually lift the skin and then tighten it to help give you a natural-looking yet youthful look.

Rhinoplasty

Your nose is literally at the center of your face, and if you just aren’t happy with it, then your self-esteem may be suffering. Whether you were born with a nose that you aren’t fond of or if you were recently injured and damaged your nose, we can perform a rhinoplasty to correct it. During this procedure, we will reshape and contour the nose to make it something that you’re proud to show off.

Jowl Lift

Having a turkey neck isn’t exactly something that any male wants. Although your beard may be able to conceal it a little bit, it’s not going to do a whole lot. During a jowl lift, we will remove excess fat from underneath the chin and tighten the skin so that you have a more taut side profile.

Botox

Botox is the most popular non-invasive procedure that patients elect to get; especially at our office. As an injectable that used to only be popular among middle-aged women, men and women of all ages are getting Botox to treat and prevent fine lines and wrinkles.

Fillers

If you feel like you have to constantly have a beard to conceal your fine lines and wrinkles around your mouth and nose,  then you may be the perfect candidate for fillers. Fillers are used to fill in small lines to give you a more stubbly youthful look.

The key to getting good, natural looking results is to come to a surgeon like Dr. Weinstein. If you are a male who wants to get surgery done, schedule your consultation with us and call 908-879-2222.

Are You Man Enough to Go Under the Knife?

A growing number of men in the country are now very much keen into going under the knife, says a recent report by the The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). Over the last decade and a half, a whooping 121 percent increase in men seeking cosmetic surgery procedures have been reported. In 2011, the top plastic surgery procedures for men were liposuction, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, male breast reduction and face lift.

By and large, men from metropolitan areas often seek cosmetic procedures to correct or improve their overall physical appearance. Dr. Larry Weinstein, one of the premier plastic surgeons for New York male cosmetic surgery, performs the aforementioned top 5 procedures for men last year.

Fats Off with Liposuction

Liposuction generally works by suctioning out deposits of fat which are accumulated beneath your skin. Dr. Weinstein deftly carries out this procedure with his smooth and controlled hand movements, what with years of playing the violin. Men who are worried about the fats that simply won’t go away on their arms, waistline and legs will greatly benefit from liposuction.

Rhinoplasty for the Real Men

Dr. Weinstein believes that the best candidates for rhinoplasty are those who are not seeking perfection but improvement. In preparing for this surgery, you may be advised to avoid smoking and alcohol intake weeks before the date of operation. Rhinoplasty may be done either through local or general anaesthesia which will totally depend on the degree of surgery.

Drive the Puffiness Away with Blepharoplasty

Get rid of eye bags, the puffy regions around your eyes and drooping eyelids with Dr. Weinstien’s eyelid surgery procedures. Eyelid surgeries can be done in conjunction with other facial surgeries such as a brow lift or a face lift. The entire process usually takes around two to three hours, including pre-surgical preparations.

Good Riddance to Man Boobs!

Gynecomastia or man boobs is almost always the result of dramatic weight loss, intake of certain medications or influence of hormones. Non-smokers and those who are holistically healthy are ideal candidates for male breast reduction. Keep in mind that heavy lifting may be prohibited within 4-6 weeks post-procedure.

Take Years Off from Your Face, Brother

One of Dr. Weinstein’s important considerations when performing face lift amongst males is making sure that their baseline blood pressure is within normal limits. Due to genetic differences, blood pressure amongst men tend to be higher than that of women. Face lift falls under major surgeries wherein blood pressure levels are at high risk of for abnormal variations.

Schedule an initial evaluation with Dr. Weinstein today if you’re really man enough to go under the knife!
