Increase Confidence In Men
Cosmetic treatments have predominately been undertaken by women. However, there has been an increase in the number of men considering undergoing some form of cosmetic procedures. It could be due to images on social media, superhero films or even vanity, there are various reasons as to why men are now choosing to undergo cosmetic treatments.
It could be due to the taboo beginning to fade, with the rise in the celebrities becoming more open about the surgeries they have had.
These are just a few of the most popular cosmetic treatments available that increase confidence and self-esteem.
Hair Transplants
A significant number of men will, unfortunately, suffer from hair loss. Almost two-thirds of men will potentially experience male pattern baldness at some point in their lives. For most, they will be comfortable with the balding process. However, others may consider addressing their hair loss by enquiring about restorative hair transplant treatments.
One of the most advanced hairs transplant treatments, Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) helps men to eradicate their bald patches, whilst restoring receding hairlines. Various cosmetic surgeries will offer an FUE treatment, like The Treatment Rooms, to provide men with that boost in confidence and self-esteem.
FUE procedure is a less-invasive treatment that involves no stitches or leaves any obvious scars. The surgeon will take some of the healthy hair, either from the side or back of the head, and re-insert them into the areas of the scalp where hairs no longer grow.
Ear Surgery
Formally known as otoplasty, ear surgery allows the patient to reposition their ears by re-sculpting the cartilage at the back of the ear to bring them closer to the head. Ear surgeries for men make up almost half of all UK ear pinning procedures, with 1 in 20 Brits feeling as though their ears appear too prominent. It comes as no surprise that the non-invasive procedure is sought after.
Whilst it might not be major surgery, ear reshaping can have a massive positive impact on a person’s overall self-esteem. Not only this, but it can also improve a facial appearance by adding balance and symmetry to a person’s face.
The treatment itself takes approximately two hours to complete and can be performed under a general anesthetic, depending on the extent of the reshaping requirements. It is a simple process in which a small incision is made along the crease line towards the back of the ear, before removing any of the excess cartilage that is forcing the ear to protrude outwards. The surgeon then pins the ear back into its new position before the stitches are added.Â
Botox
In the rise of men looking to have cosmetic treatments, it is becoming increasingly common for them to choose to have botox. Above the eyebrows are the most common areas in which men are looking to have botox. The result of putting botox above the eyebrow is that it opens the eyes up, making them appear bigger and brighter. Due to it only being a short procedure, it is a popular opinion treatment with many ageing men.
