More and more men are seeking out plastic surgery and seem to have no qualms about going under the knife. Women still account for more plastic surgeries annually, but it seems like the men are catching up! Men want to eliminate their droopy necks, droopy eyes, protruding bellies and excess body fat. Plastic surgery is not covered by insurance most of the time. Yet, men seem to want to achieve one objective and that is to look attractive. They want to make themselves more acceptable looking in society and correct features that are embarrassing to them.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons recently released statistics which show that plastic surgery in men is up by 2% compared to statistics from 2009. Many males have opted for a one time surgical procedure to correct any embarrassing features. Men prefer to stick to one operation instead of returning time and time again to the plastic surgeons office like women do. Facelifts for men increased in 2010 by 14% and liposuction by 7%. ASPS statistics show that in 2010 men went under the knife in nearly 1.1 million cosmetic procedures, both surgical and minimally invasive. It seems like men are more interested in cosmetic procedures compared to minimally invasive treatment which was popular several years ago.
