Abdominoplasty for Men

Abdominoplasty for Men

The Daddy Makeover is gynecomastia surgery with simultaneous tummy tuck and liposuction of the abdomen, flanks and love handles The result is that it removes both excess fat and skin around the male trunk, breast and abdominal region.

In the case shown here, liposuction alone, dieting and exercise will remove fat, but not excess skin. The Daddy Makeover removes both excess fat and skin. No other procedure could do this.

Age, hormone treated beef and alcohol can add fat in places that are resistant to toning and weight loss (such as breasts, love handles).

The body converts one unit of alcohol into 1/2 unit of fat. That means that two cansof beer become one can of fat in the body-hence the “beer belly” in men. Once abeer belly forms, extra skin is required to cover the additional volume of fat. Onceextras kin is made, no amount of dieting and exercise will remove it. Weight loss willburn fat-not skin. Liposuction will remove fat, but beyond a certain point, liposuctionwill cause saggy skin. Laser skin tightening can tighten mild skin sag, but surgicalremoval of saggy skin remains the gold standard.

Recovery from liposuction of the chest, male breast, abdomen and love handles is 1-2 days. However, recovery after a tummy tuck is 2 weeks. The recovery following atummy tuck is 2 weeks, no matter how many procedures are added. For this reason,many men who take time off for a Daddy Makeover, often add other procedures.

The Daddy Makeover may also include Brazilian fat transfer to the male buttocks,buttock implants, pectoralis implants, abdominal implants, thigh and calf implants,face makeover and fat sculpting.
