Just for Men

In addition to the above procedures for the face and body, there are some additional options available to address the more specific needs of men. Once you consult with your PSAR surgeon about your personal goals, he can design an individualized plan that may include these and/or other procedures for the custom fit that you deserve.

Facial Implants

Facial implants are designed for augmentative, reconstructive or rejuvenative purposes. Available in a wide range of sizes and styles for the chin, jaw, nose and cheek, implants add or restore contour and/or proportion to the face.

Male Breast Reduction

Gynecomastia is a condition that is far more common than many realize. It affects an estimated 40 to 60 percent of the male population. It may affect only one breast or both. Enlarged male breasts can be reduced by liposuction and/or by cutting out excess glandular tissue. The procedure takes an average of two hours, usually on an outpatient basis, using general or local anesthesia. If excessive glandular tissue, fat and skin is present, it will be removed. For the removal of excess fatty tissue alone, liposuction may be all that is needed. Results are permanent, although subsequent obesity can create a gynecomastia-like effect.

Chest Implants

Chest implants are used to enhance the pectoral contour of the male chest. Implants are made of solid silicone or other non-reactive materials. They are surgically implanted either by designing a well fitted pocket or affixing it to soft tissue.

Calf Implants

Calf implants are used to enhance the muscular contour of the lower leg. Implants are made of solid silicone or other non-reactive materials. They are surgically implanted either by designing a well fitted pocket or affixing it to soft tissue.
