What are the Benefits of Liposuction for Men?

Published February 25, 2019 by Katerina Gallus, MD FACS
liposuction

Cosmetic procedures designed to improve appearance are nothing new. Even something like liposuction can make a big difference for men and women. Have you wondered if this procedure is right for you? Here are a few of the primary benefits of liposuction for men that you should consider.

Getting Rid of the Spare Tire

Try as you might, nothing seems to make those love handles go away completely. Even with diet and exercise, they seem to resist all your efforts. One of the more common benefits of liposuction for men is that the procedure can finally help you get rid of the spare tire around your middle. Once you heal from the procedure, your middle will look just as toned and evenly proportioned as the rest of your body.

Helping Men with Gynecomastia

Enlarged breasts in men (or gynecomastia) can be caused by a number of different factors. Along with treating the underlying cause, something needs to be done to reduce the size of those breasts—that’s where gynecomastia surgery comes in. For many patients, liposuction with tissue excision is a simple way to restore a smooth and masculine chest contour.

Think of what it means to have those breasts back to what you consider a normal size. You will no longer feel self-conscious about undressing in a locker room or taking your shirt off at the beach or lake.

Removing Fatty Deposits on the Arms and Legs

The middle is not the only place that men have trouble getting rid of excess fat. There are times when areas like the legs, the arms, and even the buttocks may have a layer of fat on top of the muscles. You’ll find that the benefits of liposuction for men extend to getting rid of fatty deposits in those areas too.

Just like getting rid of a spare tire using liposuction, the procedure will remove excess fat from these other areas. The result is that your arms, legs, and even your buttocks appear more toned and firm.

Promoting a More Positive Body Image

Overall, removing the fat helps you feel better about the way you look. Your clothing seems to fit better and you certainly are more comfortable in a swimsuit. The fact that you are happier with your appearance has a positive impact on the way you think about yourself in general.
