  Why Men Are Changing The Way We Look At Cosmetic Surgery
Author: Tammy Garcia

When most people mention cosmetic surgery, they usually think of it from a female perspective. After all, a great majority of the procedures are performed on women.

But as baby boomers move into the 50 and 60+ age group, men are increasingly looking to cosmetic surgery to help them look younger and more attractive. They are discovering the benefits of cosmetic surgery in record numbers, and it's helping them both personally and professionally.

The fact is cosmetic surgery has become more popular and more affordable. And it no longer carries the stigma of vanity that it once did. Cosmetic surgery is now simply a way to look as great as you feel - with a little help from your surgeon.

In 2005, men made up nine percent of all cosmetic procedures, with the number of procedures reaching nearly one million. Top surgical procedures for men were liposuction, rhinoplasty, and eyelid surgery, while non-surgical procedures included Botox, microdermabrasion and Restylane.

Men are choosing cosmetic surgery for a variety of reasons. A business executive may decide to improve his appearance especially if he meets with a lot of clients. The baggy eyelids and tired appearance can easily be corrected by eyelid surgery or a complete facelift.

A 50 year old spending several nights of the week in the gym may be in great physical condition, yet still have the body of a 50 year old. With liposuction, he can eliminate those love handles that have built up over the years, and give him a slimmer, trimmer body.

And let's face it; our society does put a premium on youth. If you're going to keep up with the young guys, why not look as youthful as possible too.

And as women increasingly continue their quest for a youthful appearance, they'll demand that their men keep in pace beside them.

Start out by easing into it at a comfortable pace. Visit a salon or spa, and have a facial, toning treatment or try out a skin product line.

When you're comfortable with that, visit a few cosmetic surgery centers, and gain information on the specific procedures. Thanks to the Internet, you can visit a number of centers virtually, and browse through their content. Sign up for newsletters or reports to further your knowledge.

And when the time is right, make an appointment to discuss your options. A reputable cosmetic surgery center will provide you with a no cost consultation, and help you arrive at the best solution for you.
