More men are choosing cosmetic procedures to improve their appearance in ways that look natural and confident—not overdone. From jaw enhancement to body contouring and non-surgical options, there are tailored treatments that address common concerns while maintaining masculine features.
With years of experience in male aesthetics, Dr. Steinbrech understands what works best for men’s unique goals and facial structure. His personalized approach focuses on achieving subtle, long-lasting results through techniques designed specifically for male patients. Read on to learn about the most common plastic surgeries for males.
1. Jaw and Chin Augmentation for a Stronger, Sharper Look
A defined jawline and chin convey strength and confidence, making chin augmentation one of the most common male plastic surgery procedures. Whether you’re born with a weaker jaw or have lost definition over time, implants or injections can restore balance to your facial proportions. Dr. Steinbrech offers implant-based chin enhancement as well as less invasive cosmetic injections, so you can choose the approach that best fits your lifestyle and goals.
Implants and Bone Reconstruction
Chin implants are small, biocompatible devices placed over the lower jawbone to build projection and width. This surgical approach provides permanent structure, and implants come in a range of shapes to match your anatomy. During your consultation, Dr. Steinbrech will help you select the ideal implant size and profile for a masculine appearance that suits your face.
Subtle Changes with Cosmetic Injections
For men seeking temporary yet noticeable definition, injectable chin augmentation uses dermal fillers made of hyaluronic acid or calcium hydroxylapatite. This non-surgical option requires minimal downtime and offers instant results that last six to 18 months. Many patients appreciate the ability to “test drive” a stronger chin before committing to implants.
2. Pec Enhancement and Gynecomastia Surgery to Define Your Chest
Excess breast tissue (gynecomastia) affects up to 40 percent of men at some point in their lives. Male breast reduction, or gynecomastia surgery, removes unwanted tissue and restores a flatter, more masculine chest contour. For men with well-developed muscles but uneven fullness, pec implants or fat grafting can further sculpt the chest for a balanced look.
Gynecomastia Treatment (Male Breast Reduction) Options
Before recommending surgery, Dr. Steinbrech evaluates whether gynecomastia is hormonal, weight-related, or genetic.
- Liposuction alone can address mild fat deposits.
- Direct excision removes glandular tissue through small incisions around the areola.
Combination techniques use both liposuction and excision for moderate to severe cases.

3. Liposuction to Sculpt Stubborn Areas
Liposuction remains one of the most common plastic surgery procedures for men, targeting pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise. Whether you want a trimmer waist, smoother flanks, or more defined love handles, liposuction can deliver a more athletic silhouette.
Most Common Liposuction Zones for Male Patients
Men tend to store fat differently than women, so treatments focus on:
- Abdomen and “six-pack” definition
- Flanks (love handles) for a tapered waist
- Chest area to address fat-related gynecomastia
- Neck and jawline to eliminate a double chin
- Back for an overall leaner look
A small cannula is inserted through tiny incisions to gently suction out excess fat. Recovery typically takes one to two weeks, and most patients return to normal activities within a month.
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) to Complement Liposuction
For men with loose skin after weight loss, abdominoplasty tightens the abdominal muscles and removes extra skin. While liposuction alone smooths contour, abdominoplasty ensures a firm, flat stomach, especially for those who have lost significant weight.
4. Gluteal Enhancement for a Balanced, Athletic Build
A flat or asymmetrical buttock region can detract from overall body harmony. Gluteal enhancement gives men a more athletic, balanced rear profile using either fat transfer or implants.
Fat Transfer vs. Implants for Glute Shaping
During a Brazilian butt lift (fat transfer), fat harvested via liposuction is purified and injected into the buttocks. This natural approach avoids implants and uses your own tissue. Alternatively, silicone gluteal implants offer predictable volume and shape without relying on fat availability.
What Makes Male Glute Enhancement Different
Men typically desire subtler augmentation than women, with emphasis on a moderate lift and improved projection rather than pronounced curves. Dr. Steinbrech tailors each gluteal procedure to the individual male anatomy, ensuring results that look masculine and proportionate.
5. Male Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery) to Refresh Tired Eyes
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is one of the most common men’s plastic surgery procedures for reducing signs of aging around the eyes. Drooping lids and under‑eye bags can make you appear tired or older than you feel. Upper and lower blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat, brightening your gaze and creating a more youthful, rested appearance.
6. Fillers and Injectables for Subtle Yet Powerful Enhancements
Non-surgical injectable treatments allow men to refine facial features without downtime. Dermal fillers and neurotoxins can address volume loss, wrinkles, and acne scars to restore a more balanced, refreshed look.
Dermal Fillers for Volume, Contour, and Definition
Using hyaluronic acid-based fillers, Dr. Steinbrech can augment the cheeks, fill deep lines, and sharpen the jawline. These treatments also work well to restore fullness under the eyes and improve facial symmetry.
Injectable Treatments for Acne Scars and Facial Balance
For men with pitted acne scars or uneven texture, specialized injectables can stimulate collagen production and smooth the skin’s surface. These treatments boost skin health gradually and can be combined with fillers for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
7. Non‑Surgical Rhinoplasty and Nose Reshaping to Refine Your Profile
Nose reshaping without surgery uses fillers to correct minor bumps, lift a drooping tip, or improve overall nasal symmetry. Results are immediate and last up to a year, offering a low‑risk way to preview changes before considering surgical rhinoplasty.
8. Botox to Soften Lines Without Changing Your Expression
Botox remains a top cosmetic procedure for men who want to reduce forehead furrows, crow’s feet, and frown lines while maintaining natural movement. Strategic injections relax targeted muscles, smoothing wrinkles without a frozen look.
Where Men Typically Get Botox
Men often choose Botox in areas that convey aging or stress:
- Forehead lines for a more polished appearance
- Glabellar lines (“11s”) between the brows
- Crow’s feet around the eyes
- Horizontal neck bands for a smoother neckline
