Today, more and more men are choosing to have various cosmetic surgery procedures to rejuvenate their appearance. This is especially true for men who feel the need to compete with younger co-workers. A man’s eyes can really age the overall face and present a tired, older impression to others. Sagging eyelids and under eye bags, creases and wrinkles are all to blame.
Dr. Chandler performs eyelid surgery for many male patients to rejuvenate their eyes, and the popularity of this procedure continues to increase with men.
Male Blepharoplasty Statistics
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, of a total of 1,679,164 cosmetic surgeries performed in the U.S. last year, men accounted for 214,741 of those, making up 13 percent of the total.
For men, the second most popular cosmetic surgery was eyelid surgery with 31,494 male blepharoplasty procedures.
Reasons men want eyelid surgery
Everyone wants to look rested, alert, and attentive. Hooded, sagging eyelids and deep lines and bags beneath the eyes make a man look older, tired, and less engaged.
For men, eyelid surgery has obvious similarities between men and women — both want to remove excess skin and tighten underlying support muscles — but there are also differences. On the upper eyelid, men want the skin lifted to make the eyes appear alert and rested, but it can’t leave a hollow or feminized appearance. On the lower eyelids, men look to remove under eye bags and smooth the crease that often forms between the eyelid and the cheek. Dr. Chandler knows that most men are very concerned to look natural without an operated appearance – and this is something Dr. Chandler is particularly expert at.
The changes from male eyelid surgery can take up to a decade off a man’s facial age. Plus, the eyes are usually the area of the face a person looks at first when initially meeting a person, so this procedure can really change the impression your eyes are making. Eyelid surgery with Dr. Chandler can be a great procedure for men who need to interact at work with men and women who are years, even decades, younger than they are.
