While aging is inevitable, it affects people differently. Due to a combination of biological and behavioral differences, men experience accelerated and uniquely patterned facial aging. With thicker skin, less soft tissue, and a distinct bone structure, men typically develop deeper wrinkles, a faster loss of volume, and more pronounced facial aging than women.
At Pearlman Aesthetic Surgery, we understand these inherent differences—as well as men’s unique aesthetic goals. Led by world-renowned, dual board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Steven Pearlman, our trusted team takes a personalized approach to facial rejuvenation for men in NYC.
Here’s a closer look at how we tailor men’s plastic surgery to restore your confidence while honoring your natural masculine features.
Male Facelifts
Men tend to notice signs of aging in the lower face first, developing skin laxity (sagging skin) along their cheeks and jawline. As the most effective approach to tightening the skin and restoring youthful contours, facelift surgery sharpens your masculine features, addressing:
- Excess, sagging skin in the cheeks and neck
- Facial volume loss
- Jowls and loss of jawline definition
- Nasolabial folds and marionette lines
With decades of experience specializing in facial rejuvenation for men in NYC, Dr. Pearlman takes a tailored approach to male facelifts, utilizing the most advanced techniques, including deep plane facelifts. Rooted in proven expertise and a deep understanding of facial anatomy, he preserves masculine angles and avoids creating an overly pulled or artificial appearance.
Male Neck Lifts
The neck is also one of the first places to reveal a man’s age, as gravity, fat accumulation, and weakened muscles undermine a strong, youthful profile. A neck lift restores definition by redraping excess skin and repositioning underlying tissues, improving the appearance of:
- Excess fat along the jawline
- Deep wrinkles or banding in the neck
- Sagging skin or “turkey neck”
For many men, something as routine as tightening a tie or buttoning up a shirt can highlight these concerns. To correct these issues, Dr. Pearlman may recommend a submentoplasty, also known as a “chin tuck,” to address the appearance of a double chin. Through meticulous, tailored techniques, he restores masculine contours and definition, leaving virtually no trace of surgical intervention.
However, an isolated neck lift is only for patients without significant skin laxity.
Male Rhinoplasty
As your nasal skin and cartilage change over time, your nose’s dimensions change, and many men notice their nose appears more prominent as they grow older. The nose is the centerpiece of the face, so rhinoplasty plays a powerful role in facial rejuvenation for men.
In NYC, Dr. Pearlman has performed over 7,000 successful rhinoplasty procedures. Having mastered an innovative, proven, and personalized approach, he precisely corrects functional and aesthetic concerns, including:
- Nasal hump
- Wide nose structure
- Deep creases above the nostrils
- Difficulty breathing
- Deviated septum
- Crooked or asymmetrical nose
- Pinched or upturned nasal tip
- Collapsed bridge
- Overly large nose
- Tip “knuckles” (bossae)
Men’s nasal cartilage and skin are thicker than women’s, and typically, their aesthetic goals are also distinct. When performing a nose job for men, Dr. Pearlman accounts for these anatomical and aesthetic differences, refining your nose accordingly.
Male Brow Lift
A heavy brow can create the appearance of constant fatigue or frustration and add years to your appearance. A brow lift, also known as a forehead lift, restores the brows to their original, youthful position, improving the appearance of:
- Deep wrinkles across the forehead
- Downward shifted brows
Dr. Pearlman takes a comprehensive approach to brow lifts, using advanced techniques that enhance your entire profile. For male patients, he positions the brow to create a strong, masculine angle, avoiding over-elevation that may soften or feminize their features.
Male Blepharoplasty
A blepharoplasty, more commonly known as eyelid surgery, repositions the tissues in the upper and lower eyelids rather than the brow, addressing:
Drooping or hooded eyelids
Undereye “bags” or puffiness
Beyond these procedures’ roles in facial rejuvenation for men in NYC, Dr. Pearlman’s meticulous technique can also address visual impairment caused by excess skin around the eyes. The eye area is extremely delicate, so this requires a precise hand to achieve. A sagging brow can cause hooded eyelids, but Dr. Pearlman will examine your anatomy and decide whether a brow lift or eyelid lift in NYC is the best method to restore your vision.
Male Chin Augmentation
For men, chin augmentation can be the missing piece to a balanced, strong profile. Without ample definition, the chin can make the nose appear more prominent and the jawline softer, offsetting facial symmetry. To address chin recession (retrognathia), which men often experience with age, Dr. Pearlman redefines chin projection using implants, also improving:
- Disproportionate chin
- Excess submental fat or a “double chin”
- Facial asymmetry
- Loss of jawline definition
To enhance masculine facial structure, Dr. Pearlman designs your procedure to feel like a natural extension of your anatomy. While discreet, the outcomes are transformative.
Male Neck Liposuction
Beyond your lifestyle and dietary habits, aging and genetics can also cause excess submental fat to develop, creating a “double chin.” Studies show that even a slight amount of submental fat negatively impacts men’s self-perception, and unfortunately, these fat cells are often resistant to diet and exercise alone.
Through advanced neck and chin liposuction, our trusted plastic surgeons restore your confidence by addressing:
- Double chin (submental fullness)
- Facial asymmetry
- Poor jawline definition
Both chin augmentation and liposuction address submental fat, redefining your masculine profile, but deciding between procedures depends on your anatomy and vision. In cases where patients want to address excess fat and a receding chin, Dr. Pearlman may recommend combining procedures for comprehensive facial rejuvenation for men in NYC.
Male Lip Lift
The lips play a powerful role in facial balance, and even small changes can have a significant impact on how your features complement one another. With age, a man’s upper lip can elongate and the vermilion can thin, causing the shape of his mouth—and therefore the appearance of his overall profile—to change. By strategically shortening the distance between the nose and upper lip, Dr. Pearlman performs a lip lift to correct:
- A loss of lip definition and tooth show
- A thinned or flattened upper lip
- Downturned corners of the mouth
Dr. Pearlman tailors this precise procedure to your unique facial proportions, refreshing your appearance to enhance rather than subtract from your masculine features.
