For decades, plastic surgery was often associated only with women. But in recent years, more men have discovered the benefits of cosmetic procedures. Whether it’s to refresh the face, sculpt the body, or enhance confidence, male patients are seeking treatments that help them look and feel their best at every stage of life.
At Pittman Plastic Surgery in Athens, GA, our board-certified surgeons, Dr. Ed Pittman and Dr. Matthew Baker, specialize in providing natural-looking results for men. With a private, comfortable environment and an accredited surgery center, we offer both surgical and non-surgical options tailored specifically to male patients.
This guide explores the most popular male cosmetic surgery procedures and why more men in Athens and northeast Georgia are turning to Pittman Plastic Surgery for expert care.
Why Men Choose Cosmetic Surgery
Modern cosmetic surgery for men is about much more than vanity. For many, it’s about staying competitive in the workplace, feeling confident in social situations, or simply matching their appearance with how youthful and energetic they feel inside.
Some of the most common reasons men choose cosmetic procedures include:
-
Professional Confidence: Looking refreshed and energetic can have a positive impact in careers.
-
Personal Confidence: Many men want to look their best for themselves and their partners.
-
Lifestyle Changes: After weight loss or aging, cosmetic surgery can restore balance and proportion.
-
Subtle, Natural Enhancements: Today’s techniques are designed to enhance masculinity without looking overdone.
Popular Male Cosmetic Surgery Procedures
At Pittman Plastic Surgery, we offer a wide range of procedures that address men’s unique aesthetic goals.
Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty)
Drooping eyelids and under-eye bags can make men appear older or constantly tired. Eyelid surgery removes excess skin and fat, giving a more rested, youthful appearance. It’s one of the most popular facial procedures among male patients.
Liposuction
Stubborn fat deposits—especially around the abdomen, flanks (love handles), and chest—are common concerns for men. Liposuction provides precise contouring, helping to achieve a leaner, more athletic shape.
Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty)
For men with significant weight loss or loose abdominal skin, a tummy tuck tightens the midsection by removing excess skin and repairing weakened abdominal muscles.
Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia Surgery)
Excess breast tissue, known as gynecomastia, is a common issue that affects confidence. Male breast reduction surgery creates a flatter, firmer chest contour.
Facelift and Neck Lift
Sagging skin and deep wrinkles in the face and neck can be corrected with these surgical procedures, helping men restore a youthful, strong facial structure.
Non-Surgical Body Contouring
For those who prefer non-invasive treatments, CoolSculpting® offers fat reduction without surgery or downtime. It’s especially popular among men who want results without taking time off work.
Non-Surgical Cosmetic Treatments for Men
Not every male patient is ready for surgery, and many start with minimally invasive procedures to see subtle improvements. At Pittman Plastic Surgery, we provide advanced non-surgical options, including:
-
Brotox (Botox® for Men): Smooths lines on the forehead, crow’s feet, and frown lines while maintaining natural expression.
-
Dermal Fillers: Enhance jawline definition, restore cheek volume, or reduce deep folds.
-
Laser Treatments: Improve skin tone, texture, and sun damage.
-
Medical-Grade Skincare: Customized regimens to support long-term results.
These treatments require little to no downtime, making them especially appealing to busy professionals.
