As appearance management has become an important element of self-care, an increasing number of people, regardless of gender and age, are seeking to improve their appearance through procedures or surgery. In particular, as men's perception of plastic surgery and appearance changes, the demand for men's plastic surgery for natural changes in appearance is increasing.Male plastic surgery has different aesthetic standards than female plastic surgery. While women prefer flashy and distinct changes in plastic surgery, men tend to want natural changes with a relatively discreet yet sophisticated look. For example, in eye surgery, women often prefer pronounced double eyelid creases, but men prefer monolids or hidden double eyelid creases and often aim to create clear eyes by improving a sleepy or heavy, hooded look.
Eye correction surgery, which can be helpful in these cases, is a surgery that strengthens the power to open the eyes by correcting the muscles that open the eyes. Depending on the case, it can be applied as a non-incision or incision method, and a clear and natural eye shape can be achieved even after a relatively short recovery period.
Male rhinoplasty has another special characteristic. Men have thicker skin and more developed bones and cartilage, so their approach to rhinoplasty is different from that of typical female rhinoplasty. A customized design that takes into account the T-zone line from the eyebrow bone to the bridge of the nose and the overall facial contour is important, and the surgery should be performed in a way that balances the entire face rather than simply raising the height of the nose.
As such, there are significant differences between men and women in various factors such as facial skeleton, muscles, skin thickness, and fat amount. Therefore, it is important to have a surgical method that comprehensively considers these factors and a customized design for each individual. Consultation and surgery by professional medical staff with extensive clinical experience in male plastic surgery are the key to obtaining safe and satisfactory results.
Park Kisoo, director of JAYJUN Plastic Surgery, emphasized, "For male plastic surgery, it is important to create a discreetly sophisticated impression while taking into account the physical characteristics unique to men. Rather than simply applying the method of female plastic surgery, structural characteristics, aesthetic standards, and individual design must be taken into consideration, so the experience of the medical staff is very important."
