Overview
- Surgeons report men now account for a meaningful minority of patients, with one practice citing roughly 30% and some estimates placing male participation near 40% when non-surgical treatments are included.
- Blepharoplasty is identified as the most requested surgery among men, and a Spanish society leader describes it as an outpatient procedure with generally low complication rates.
- Interest has expanded beyond traditional rhinoplasty to minimally invasive options such as botulinum toxin, bio-stimulation, fillers and platelet-rich plasma, alongside body-contouring including liposuction, Endolift and mandibular definition.
- Motivations extend beyond appearance to competitiveness at work, longer careers and self-confidence, with greater visibility of public male figures helping to reduce stigma.
- Providers emphasize integrated care, noting that concerns like under-eye hollows or a fatigued look can reflect issues such as high cortisol, thyroid dysfunction, insulin resistance or poor sleep that warrant clinical evaluation alongside aesthetic treatment.
