Although facelift has traditionally been a procedure enjoyed almost exclusively by women, a growing number of men are now seeking facelift. This trend makes sense: aging takes just as much of a toll on men’s faces, so why wouldn’t men want to have a more rejuvenated look with fewer wrinkles? Dr. Ereso uses surgery to shave years off a man’s appearance, while fully understanding the need to adjust traditional facelift techniques to avoid “feminizing” the face. On average, men have thicker skin, denser muscles and a more severe bone structure, all of which should be taken into account when providing a man with a rejuvenated but no less ruggedly handsome face.
