Male Plastic Surgery Procedures

Gynecomastia, or enlarged male breasts, is a common condition in our society. Many men and boys have significant issues associated with their gynecomastia (also termed “man boobs”), causing them extreme embarrassment. For males suffering from this condition, gynecomastia surgery can be truly life-changing. Instead of hiding under bulky clothing, they can wear tight shirts and even go shirtless, with a new sense of confidence. Gynecomastia surgery is one of Dr. Delgado’s main specialties. Seeing the need early in his career for treating this condition, he paid close attention to the unique challenge of reducing men’s breasts.

Through the years, Dr. Delgado has developed techniques specific to gynecomastia that few other surgeons utilize. Unfortunately, today, many surgeons still attempt to reduce the male breast by liposuction alone.

Dr. Delgado’s expertise in all aspects of gynecomastia makes him one of the most sought-after specialists for male breast reduction. He takes on the most complicated cases, frequently receiving referrals from other surgeons. In addition, he is the owner and Medical Director of the most popular informational website on gynecomastia, gynecomastia.org.

One of the first signs of aging in males is the eyes. Men’s eyes are very expressive, and the strong facial muscles create expression lines. This is often attractive in men, but when the eyelid skin becomes too heavy, and the lower eyelid bags begin to show, a notable appearance of aging, stress, and exhaustion can be created. 

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) tailored for males by Dr. Delgado can help minimize puffy eyelids, lax skin, under-eye bags, and dark circles. Careful excision of excess skin, repositioning some fat that reinforcing the anatomical structure of surrounding eye tissue help to create a more youthful appearance.

In addition, removing excess skin from the upper eyelids may improve peripheral vision. After recovery, Dr. Delgado’s male blepharoplasty patients look more refreshed and well-rested. Best of all, the results are often so natural that most people do not know that anything has been “done” unless the patient chooses to share it with them.

MALE RHINOPLASTY

Rhinoplasty, also known as a “nose job,” is in the top five aesthetic surgical procedures performed on men. It is essential that the male nose is not reduced too much and that a masculine look is retained. Less experienced surgeons, or ones who mostly do rhinoplasties on women, may leave the patient with an overdone or feminine-appearing nose.

Many men complain that their noses are too big or too small. Noses may also be deformed from an accident or injury, or they were just born that way.

Male rhinoplasty surgery can create symmetry and balance, improving a man’s overall facial appearance. If there are malformations of the nasal cavity, men may also be bothered by breathing difficulties, excessive snoring, sleep apnea, or other medical conditions. Rhinoplasty surgery, combined with other procedures, can also provide relief from these issues by restructuring the inner nose.

The main goal for a male rhinoplasty is a natural result that does not significantly change a man’s appearance. After surgery, Dr. Delgado’s patients claim that they now sleep better, breathe easier, and improve their self-confidence.
