Men

The fastest growing segment of plastic surgery patients are male.​ ​Men can benefit from plastic surgery just as much as women do, but they are often more nervous. Whether looking to maintain their looks, manage their age or shape their body, Dr. Shawn Birchenough welcomes male patients and discusses options in a private setting​.

In men, the chest can be an important part of masculinity. If you’ve spent time and energy with diet and exercise to improve your chest muscles, it can be increasingly frustrating if you don’t achieve your desired result. Liposuction may be an option to treat​ ​gynecomastia​ ​(male breast enlargement.)

“My​ ​female​ ​patients​ ​are​ ​always​ ​asking​ ​me​ ​what​ ​I​ ​could​ ​do​ ​for​ ​their​ ​husbands,​ ​male​ ​friends​ ​or​ ​brothers.​ ​I encourage​ ​them​ ​to​ ​bring​ ​along​ ​their​ ​male​ ​companions​ ​to​ ​see​ ​how​ ​I​ ​interact​ ​during​ ​a​ ​consultation.​ ​Guys​ ​are relieved​ ​to​ ​know​ ​that​ ​I​ ​talk​ ​to​ ​them​ ​seriously​ —​ and​ ​in​ ​a​ ​RELAXED,​ ​PRIVATE​ ​and​ ​PROFESSIONAL​ ​atmosphere. The​ ​hardest​ ​part​ ​about​ ​treating​ ​men​ ​sometimes​ ​is​ ​just​ ​getting​ ​them​ ​in​ ​the​ ​door!​ ​They​ ​won’t​ ​regret​ ​it.”
