While many people associate plastic surgery with women, there is a growing number of men seeking out treatment. In addition to using products to help with skin rejuvenation, they are looking to surgical facelifts to help reduce signs of aging.

In this blog, we will discuss everything men need to know about facial rejuvenation and facelift surgery.

Skin Aging in Men

No one can escape skin aging, but men can face some unique challenges. Men typically have thicker skin and larger pores which can lead to an increased appearance of aging. Factors such as environmental pollutants, sun exposure and lifestyle choices can make men more prone to wrinkles.

While men cannot change their genetics or the passing of time, they can reduce their UV radiation exposure and avoid smoking, which are contributors to skin aging. Reducing signs of aging can be achieved with early intervention. Lifestyle changes like prioritising good skincare and nutrition are key.

Why Men may Consider a Surgical Facelift

With the passage of time, the appearance of wrinkles and facial sagging is ultimately unavoidable. Some of these can be rectified with non-surgical means such as chemical peels, laser resurfacing, and microneedling, which provide collagen stimulation and deeper exfoliation.

However, some wrinkles and facial folds are the result of volume loss, structural changes in the face, and skin laxity. This causes the following changes:

  • Lines from the corner of your mouth to your chin (Marionette lines)
  • Loose skin in the neck (sometimes known as ‘turkey neck’)
  • Lines from the nose to the corner of your mouth (nasolabial folds)
  • Evident wrinkles even when the face is static or at rest
  • Flattened cheeks
  • Sagging or loose skin around the jawline (jowl)
  • Reduced definition between the face and neck

Surgical Facelift Options

There are lots of different styles of facelift and your plastic surgeon will determine which is best to give you the results you’re looking for.

Vertical Face Lift

This option targets multiple areas, providing a comprehensive approach that targets everything from the forehead to the neck. It is suitable for:

  • Mid-face volume loss and sagging
  • Eyelid and periorbital region
  • Deepening nasolabial folds
  • Upper lip lengthening
  • Laxity of the lower face and neck
  • Prominent neck bands and/or excess neck skin
  • Significant cheek descent and jowling

Deep Plane Facelift

This option repositions deeper facial tissues collectively. It is most suitable for:

  • Mid-facial skin laxity
  • Men looking for comprehensive correction or requiring revision after previous surgeries
  • Those seeking longer term results

Short Scar (Mini) Facelift

If you are looking to tackle early jowling and upper neck laxity, this option may suit you. It is a less extensive treatment using shorter incisions. It may suit if you have the following:

  • Good skin elasticity
  • Desire for a potentially shorter recovery period
  • Early signs of lower face ageing
  • Limited neck ageing

Ponytail Facelift

This option focuses on lateral lifting. It would suit:

  • Those with signs of cheek and lateral face descent
  • Those seeking subtle improvement
  • Those wanting discrete incisions
