Face

Overview

Feeling good about your appearance is an important aspect of confidence for individuals of all ages and both genders. Additionally, men are subjected to the same appearance-based judgments in social or professional situations as women are. Of course, men want to correct imperfection and improve their appearances, and today the pursuit of cosmetic enhancement is socially accepted and embraced. However, due to the past social climate, many plastic surgeons' experience is largely or entirely limited to female clientele.

Dr. Nguyen has over 20+ years of experience treating men and women of all ethnicities. He is known for his artistic skills, and he understands the nuances of facial contours, where slight variances in the shape, contours, and projection of features can make the difference between a feminine and a masculine appearance. He can help you correct features you dislike, enhance features you like, or erase the signs of aging. In today's youth-driven society, a growing number of men are seeking facelifts and similar procedures to be more competitive in the work force, as well as for personal reasons.

Procedures

You will find detailed descriptions of the most common facial enhancements under the "Face" menu, and the "Asian Face" menu. Most techniques are similar, though there may be technical variations in the surgery due to the differences in the facial anatomy of men and women. Facelift, necklift, browlift, Botox®, chemical peel, and dermabrasion procedures are typically very similar for male and female patients. These techniques are used to correct skin damage and aging, restoring the face to its previous state. Procedures such as jaw or forehead contouring, cheek reduction or implants, nose surgery, or eyelid surgery utilize the same techniques for every patient, but the desired result is usually very different for men and women. During your consultation, the doctor will learn about your goals and devise a customized plan to achieve the look you desire.

Results

You can expect a more attractive, youthful, well-balanced face. The exact results will depend on the specific procedure or procedures you choose. Many men are seeking greater definition in their facial profiles, such as a protruding chin, strong jaw, and high cheekbones, or features that are more angular to achieve a rugged look. The facelift, of course, is a universally popular procedure, because youth is coveted and admired by men and women from every walk of life.
