Hello Handsome: Plastic Surgery Isn’t Reserved For Females

Splurge - May 2014 CoverA record number of men are seeking consult for plastic surgery procedures. Statistics from the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery mirror what I see in my practice. Men now account for 10% of plastic surgery procedures, a 121% increase from 15 years ago.
