Body Contouring for Men

Body contouring for men can address several different concerns, including localized areas of fat, excess skin after weight loss, abdominal muscle separation, or excess fat and glandular tissue of the chest. The appropriate procedure depends on what is actually creating the contour you would like to change.

During your consultation, the areas that concern you, fat distribution, skin quality, underlying muscle contour, chest anatomy, previous weight changes, and overall body proportions are evaluated. This helps determine whether the concern can be addressed with liposuction alone or whether skin removal, gynecomastia surgery, a tummy tuck, or another procedure would better address the underlying anatomy.

Liposuction may be used to contour areas such as the abdomen, waist, flanks, chest, back, or other localized areas of fat. Gynecomastia surgery can address excess fat and glandular tissue of the chest. When loose skin or abdominal muscle separation is a significant part of the concern, procedures that remove skin or repair the abdominal wall may be more appropriate than liposuction alone.

The goal is not simply to remove as much fat or tissue as possible. Your surgical plan considers which areas will meaningfully improve your proportions, how much contouring is appropriate in each area, and how adjacent areas relate to one another. Procedures may be performed individually or combined when appropriate based on your anatomy, goals, and the extent of surgery.
