Local Surgeon Sees Growing Number of Men Seeking Plastic Surgery

CosmetiCare Sees 200% Increase in Decade; Doctor Reveals Top Procedures. End Quote

Orange County, CA (1888PressRelease) May 20, 2011 - The number of men seeking plastic surgery is growing by leaps and bounds nationally and one local plastic surgery group has witnessed a more than 200% increase in the past 10 years. Board certified plastic surgeon Michael Niccole, M.D., founder and medical director of CosmetiCare Plastic Surgery Specialists in Newport Beach and Long Beach, said that while there was once a stigma attached to men seeking cosmetic improvements, that taboo has nearly disappeared especially among men seeking career advancement, more attention in the dating pool and for those looking to reverse the hands of time.
Among the most popular procedures currently sought by male patients at CosmetiCare:
• Non-surgical facelifts (22%) - Fueled by the recent introduction of its proprietary Lunch Hour Facelift (i.e., fillers, Botox & laser resurfacing), CosmetiCare is overwhelmed by the number of men seeking nonsurgical procedures to look younger.

• Rhinoplasty (17%) - "Nose jobs" still account for a great many male procedures.

• Liposuction (14%) - Love handles and double chins are among the trouble areas where fat tends to accumulate and men want to eliminate.

• Eyelid Surgery (12%) - Droopy eyes contribute to a tired appearance that men want to do away with.

• Breast Surgery (12%) - Both breast augmentations for those seeking a more muscled appearance and breast reduction for those with "man boobs" are highly sought-after among men.

• Other (23%) - All other procedures from calf and buttock implants to hair transplants fall into this miscellaneous category.

A portion of the revenue generated at CosmetiCare is donated to the Magic Mirror Foundation, a nonprofit that brings no-cost plastic surgery services to those in need including domestic abuse and accident victims and children from third world countries living with abnormalities.
