This blog breaks down what men should know before booking their facelift consultation.
Why Men Get Facelifts
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the number of men undergoing facelift surgery has increased by 6%.
While women still make up the majority of facelift patients, an increasing number of men are turning to the procedure for various reasons, from professional confidence to a simple desire to feel more like themselves. The rise of social media, high-definition video calls, and a longer workforce presence have also contributed to more men prioritizing their appearance.
What Makes a Male Facelift Different?
Female facelifts often focus on lifting and refining softer contours. Conversely, male facelifts are designed to maintain masculine features, like a strong jawline, while also minimizing signs of aging.
A male facelift isn’t just a version of the female procedure. Facial anatomy, hairlines, and skin thickness vary between men and women, necessitating a tailored approach. Men also tend to have more facial blood vessels, which means precision and surgical expertise are critical.
What to Expect from a Facelift
A facelift is normally performed under general anesthesia and involves removing or repositioning fat, tightening underlying muscles, and trimming excess skin. Recovery may take a few weeks, with visible swelling and bruising gradually fading.
Results often last 10 years or more. To maintain your refreshed look, many patients choose to complement their procedure with non-surgical treatments like BOTOX® Cosmetic, dermal fillers, or skin resurfacing – all available from Dr. Lipton’s award-winning staff.
