No two male plastic surgery patients have the exact same needs and expectations, so it’s important to choose a surgeon who truly understands where you are coming from. Finding the right cosmetic surgeon will ensure you have a partner through your procedure and recovery.
Dr. Jeffrey Ditesheim has been dedicated to serving male plastic surgery patients for more than two decades and understands that it’s essential to pick out the right cosmetic surgeon. You can use the following criteria when choosing a surgeon for your male plastic surgery in Charlotte.
Verifying that your surgeon is board-certified by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) is the first step to finding success with male plastic surgery. These surgeons, including Dr. Ditesheim, have:
Along with his board certification, Dr. Ditesheim has earned fellowship from the American College of Surgeons, a designation for surgeons who demonstrate the highest professional standards of competency, ethical conduct, and training.
When it comes to plastic surgery, there are several noteworthy differences between those assigned female at birth and those assigned male at birth. Men typically have larger faces and more vascular structures in the face, the latter of which can put them at an increased risk of bleeding and scarring. Additionally, because men’s skin is often thicker skin than women’s, specific consideration during certain cosmetic procedures may be needed.
It’s important to ask your surgeon if they have performed plastic surgery on many male patients, particularly the procedure you are interested in. This prior experience will help make sure your surgery goes smoothly and leads to the results you hope to achieve.
Cosmetic surgery is an art as well as a science, which is one reason why looking at photos of your surgeon’s past work with male patients is a good idea. It can help you decide if the surgeon’s style aligns with your ideal results and give you an idea of what to expect.
An effective plastic surgeon will also be able to customize treatment to your unique situation and needs—which is why Dr. Ditesheim’s approach begins with taking the time to understand each patient’s motivations for cosmetic surgery. After examining the patient, he works with them to design a plan focused on the results they wish to achieve, all while respecting their parameters for expectations, recovery, and investment.
Having a surgeon you connect with well is invaluable. You’ll feel more confident about your surgery and have more candid discussions about your aesthetic goals and the surgical process.
At the same time, it’s important not to confuse someone who makes you comfortable with someone who simply tells you what you want to hear. The best surgeons will give honest advice about your situation and the type of results you can realistically expect.
Men interested in cosmetic surgery can begin the process by meeting with our qualified surgeon, Dr. Jeffrey Ditesheim, to discuss the procedure and what they can expect from it. Male plastic surgery has increased in popularity, so there’s no reason to feel embarrassed about considering it.
