subject: Why Plastic Surgery Is Growing Amongst Men? [print this page]


Until just a few years ago, not too many men would admit to undergoing any kind of cosmetic plastic surgery to either reverse the signs of ageing or to get help in enhancing any of their facial features. In fact except for a few actors and other celebrities who were in the public eye every day, in general men were quite indifferent towards any kind of cosmetic surgery. Women were considered as the main patrons of this industry and several plastic surgeons catered exclusively to women focused plastic surgeries.

However times have changed considerably over the years and today many surgeons find that their clientele is mainly made up of men. There has been an incredible change of attitude and what so far was being considered as a woman dominated industry is now witnessing a barrage of requests made by men for all sorts of surgical as well as non surgical plastic surgery procedures.

One of the reasons for this amazing change of attitude is the way men have evolved over the years. Today its the age of the metro sexual man who is as concerned about their appearances as with any other aspect of their lives. Men are more aware of how appearances can change the outlook of people around you and are more in tune with what they need to do to create a positive environment regarding them. From career related issues to issues concerning their relationships, men have started using cosmetic surgery to get what they want.

Of course what has helped men in this change of attitude is that in general it is not considered unmanly anymore if anyone is concerned about their appearances. What drew men away from plastic surgery earlier was the amount of talk regarding cosmetic surgery being only a womans domain. Men who were more open about their plastic surgery procedures were often ridiculed or mocked. Of course men do not have to worry about that anymore as it does not matter if you are one of the new breed of metro sexual men or are more traditional in your outlook, cosmetic enhancements are now looked upon as a more common occurrence and does not get people talking the way it used to before. In fact the entire industry has grown so much that it is no longer meant for a select few. Cosmetic surgeries are open to all from all walks of life and background.

Plastic surgery procedures whether surgical or non surgical have become so popular with men that now many surgeons have started to create special packages for men only. As a matter of fact, certain plastic surgeons are going out of their way to attract men with special offers and consulting services meant to show men how surgeries keeping in mind their specific needs are more beneficial than going for general cosmetic enhancements.

Industry watchers believe that this is just the beginning and already cosmetic surgeries performed on men have almost caught up with surgeries performed on women each year. It wont be long now before both men and women will undergo equal number of cosmetic enhancements every year.
