Procedures for Men

Today cosmetic surgery isn't just for actors and models. Men of all ages and from all walks of life want a more balanced appearance: a rejuvenated face, a more defined nasal profile, less fat around the neck. Fortunately, there is no longer a stigma attached to surgically improving one's appearance.

The techniques in performing cosmetic procedures such as eyelid surgery, nasal surgery, facelift, and facial implant surgery are performed essentially the same way for both men and women; however, there are subtly different approaches required in the application of the principles.

BOTOX® Cosmetic for Men

BOTOX® Cosmetic is the best way to remove those pesky wrinkles and unwanted expression lines on your face. Dr. Mabrie's expert hands have helped many men gain a more youthful and refreshed appearance. Common treatment areas for men include the forehead and between the eyebrows. With a touch of BOTOX® Cosmetic, you can watch those lines and wrinkles disappear right before your very eyes. With no recovery time at all, you can revitalize your face without even skipping lunch. Dr. Mabrie performs all injections personally, so you can rest assured that you are in our utmost professional care. As a board certified facial cosmetic surgeon, his expertise on male facial anatomy ensures stellar results, with a passion to help you look and feel your best.

Restylane™ for Men

Restylane™ is an excellent alternative to enhance your facial features. Age is an unyielding force and as we grow older, our face tends to be first to tell us so. But fear not, Dr. Mabrie can help you fill in any creases or lines on your face. The most common area for men is the nasal-labial folds (lines running down the cheek). Restylane™ is a safe, and temporary procedure, made of a naturally occurring substance that binds water to cells. If you want to give your face a "fuller" appearance, Restylane™ is definitely an option you want to consider. Feel free to get more information on our Restylane™ page.

Eyelid Surgery for Men

Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty) enhances the appearance of your eyes by eliminating excess skin or fat to smooth the eyelids. Eyelid lift can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids or both lids depending on your specific needs. According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, eyelid surgery is the second most popular cosmetic procedure for men.

Facelift Surgery for Men

The Facelift (Rhytidectomy) surgically lifts and tightens facial and neck skin and underlying muscle. This cosmetic procedure is one of the most popular and satisfying. Over 100,000 Americans between their 20s and 90s will reverse some of the effects of sun exposure, gravity, aging and stress with a Facelift this year. If you are ready to "turn back the clock", you can appear more rested, healthier and vigorous.

Brow Lift Surgery for Men

Laughing, smiling, crying and squinting are all everyday facial movements that gradually cause your forehead to develop unwanted furrows, wrinkles and lines. This, coupled with the inevitable effects of aging can create forehead lines that lead to a tired, worn look that robs you of your confidence in social and business situations. A Brow Lift can remove unwanted wrinkles and lift the brow to rejuvenate your face.

Nose Surgery for Men

Nose surgery is the most popular procedure for men. Nose reshaping (Rhinoplasty) alters the external appearance and sometimes the internal function of your nose. This procedure can reduce the ridge or tip of the nose or narrow the nostrils.

Cheek & Chin Shaping Surgery for Men

Cheek Implants and Chin Shaping procedures use special facial implants to improve and enhance the contours of your face. Do you feel that your cheeks look sunken or tired? Does your chin appear weak or receded? These procedures can bring balance to your face and enhance your overall appearance.

Dr. Mabrie Specializes in Facial Cosmetic Surgery for Men

During his fellowship in facial cosmetic surgery at Stanford University, Dr. Mabrie became increasingly familiar with the special considerations of men undergoing facial surgery. He has also had extensive training at the Palo Alto VA hospital and understands the importance to avoid feminization of certain features such as the eyes, nose, and chin. After all, men's facial features and characteristics are quite different from women.

In general, male facial skin has a denser blood supply than female facial skin. Although minimal, any scarring that may result from surgery, would require more creativity in placement because of men's make-up and hair styling constraints.

As you plan facial or neck surgery, Dr. Mabrie will evaluate your entire head-face-neck region.

• Is your hair line receding?
• How full are your side burns?
• Does your beard-growing skin extend up your cheeks or down your neck?
• Do you have facial scars?
• Is your skin sun-damaged?
• Is your neck skin loose or drooping?
