Male Plastic Surgery in New Orleans, LA

Men from different backgrounds have met with Dr. Michelle Eagan at New Orleans Plastic Surgery to learn more about cosmetic surgeries that can improve their bodies. Though it may seem like most cosmetic procedures are geared toward women, men can also feel self-conscious about certain parts of their bodies. Because of this, Dr. Eagan is proud to offer pectoral, deltoid, or calf augmentation. If you want a tighter body and you struggle to tone these areas with diet and exercise, we can help you look and feel your best. No matter the reason, New Orleans Plastic Surgery in Louisiana is excited to design a tailored treatment plan that aligns with your cosmetic goals.

A male plastic surgery plan designed by Dr. Eagan offers men a number of great benefits to achieve the results they want, including:

• Offering multiple, customizable treatment options
• Providing the latest silicone implants and natural fat transfer
• Creating real results when exercise and diet have failed
• Defining and enhancing the pecs, delts, and calves
• Achieving dramatic results that look natural
• Boosting confidence and self-image

Men set ideal body standards for themselves just like women. From male celebrities to athletes, we know these things can impact our perception. To help you look and feel more comfortable, we provide pectoral, deltoid, or calf augmentation with fat transfer or implants. If you want to enhance the appearance of your chest, shoulders, or calves, these procedures can address your cosmetic concerns. During your consultation, Dr. Eagan will complete an assessment and listen to your goals to determine if these procedures are right for you. If so, we will design a personalized treatment plan based on your needs.

At New Orleans Plastic Surgery, we can perform one or combine all of these procedures. During your consultation, Dr. Eagan will create a treatment plan that outlines your treatment choices and cosmetic goals. All of these procedures will require general anesthesia to ensure you remain comfortable.

Calf Augmentation with Implants or Fat Transfer
If you want to improve the size of your calves, we can insert implants or perform fat grafting. For silicone implants, we will use a submuscular or subfascial technique. These determine where to place the implant. The incisions for a calf augmentation with implants will go behind the knee. If you prefer the fat transfer method, we use liposuction to extract fat from the stomach or thighs and place it into a centrifuge for purification. Next, the fat is injected into your calves.

Deltoid Augmentation
Shoulder implants can add more definition to your deltoids. At the beginning of your procedure, we will create an incision near the deltoid muscle. Next, Dr. Eagan makes a surgical pocket that holds the implant in place. Once the silicone implant is inserted, we close the incision with sutures.

Pectoral Augmentation
Chest augmentation for men enhances the appearance of the "pecs." We start the procedure by making an incision near the armpit and creating a surgical pocket within the pectoral muscle. Next, Dr. Eagan carefully places the implant and closes your incisions.

Each procedure will require some recovery time, and the length depends on the type of surgery. After your treatment, you may return home to recover; however, you will need a responsible adult to drive you home. For the next couple of weeks, you will experience soreness near the treatment sites. To help with the discomfort, patients can use cold compresses or over-the-counter medication. If you undergo a calf augmentation with fat transfer, please keep in mind that you will have two areas to care for – the incision for your liposuction and the ones behind your knees. After your procedure, we will provide detailed aftercare instructions.

The cost of your procedure is based on what treatments we use or combine. If you select all three, it will cost more. During your consultation, Dr. Eagan can go over your cosmetic goals and create a surgical plan that meets your needs. Typically, your costs are based on the type of anesthesia, facility fees, and surgical techniques. When considering surgery, we highly recommend looking at the experience of the cosmetic surgeon over the cost. To help make it easier to afford, we offer payment plans and financing options. We will discuss this information after developing a detailed surgical plan.

What types of male cosmetic surgery do most men get?
The most commonly performed men's plastic surgery procedures include muscle augmentation (calves, pecs, delts), facelifts, liposuction, male breast reduction (gynecomastia surgery), and rhinoplasty (nose jobs).

Are there other male cosmetic surgery options than implants?
Yes, there are. In addition to the latest silicone implants, Dr. Eagan also performs fat transfers. A fat transfer offers excellent benefits to enhance your appearance by using your own fat harvest from one part of your body and put into another. This gives you a more natural enhancement option with the added benefit of removing stubborn unwanted fat in problem areas. During your consultation, Dr. Eagan will explain the different treatment options and then help you create the right plan for your goals.

How long is recovery after a men's plastic surgery procedure?
Recovery times will depend on what procedure you're having, your health, and other factors. In general, most men will recover over about 3 – 6 weeks. Dr. Eagan, or a member of her team, will give you detailed aftercare instructions to speed healing and improve results.

How long does a men's silicone implant last?
Most silicone implants can last up to about 10 – 20 years before you may need a consultation with Dr. Eagan to discuss replacement or removal.

What should I expect during the consultation for male plastic surgery?
During the consultation, Dr. Eagan and her team will review your medical history, discuss your goals, and perform a physical examination. They will explain the recommended procedures, potential risks, benefits, and the recovery process. You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have.

Can multiple male plastic surgery procedures be performed at the same time?
Yes, it is often possible to combine multiple procedures, such as a facelift with eyelid surgery or liposuction with gynecomastia correction. Combining procedures can reduce overall recovery time and cost. Our team in New Orleans, LA will discuss the best approach based on your goals and health.
