Rhinoplasty Becoming More Popular Among Men
We’ll talk about some of the top reasons rhinoplasty has surged in popularity over the past few years. There is a range of reasons men are choosing to get nose jobs, but it’s not just about looking better, men can get ahead in life with a good rhinoplasty! Dr. Gordon and his team at The Retreat At Split Rock can help you achieve the look you want. But first, let’s see what is driving the male rhinoplasty trend.
Why Are More Men Choosing to Get Rhinoplasty Procedures?
While everyone has an individual reason to get a nose job, we’ll shed light on the major influences that are pushing the demand for male facial plastic surgery like rhinoplasty.
1. Social Media Has Increased Our Focus on Physical Appearance
Social media has transformed the way we view ourselves. While humans have always been drawn to physical beauty and good looks, social media has further enhanced the value of attractive faces and bodies. With an increased focus on physical appearance in our lives, men are more aware of how they look and what is considered attractive.
This type of digital environment really makes it easier to compare ourselves to better-looking people. Many of us scroll through posts of glamorous influencers online for hours each day, which creates self-doubt about our own attractiveness. This has led men and women to get more facial plastic surgery in recent years.
Rhinoplasty is especially popular as changes to the nose can transform the overall attractiveness and symmetry of your face. Bottom line, nowadays men want to post pictures of themselves that look good and gain more likes. Rhinoplasty can improve selfies and other photos shared online.
2. More People Are Using Video Calling Apps For Remote Work
Since Covid emerged in 2020, and people started quarantining, video chatting apps and software have become more popular. Many individuals couldn’t leave their homes and had to do remote work online. Because of this, meetings on Zoom and other chat apps became a necessity.
Remote work definitely has its perks, but a lot of workers were forced to stare at their own faces through a camera lens day after day. While some people were okay with this, others became more self-conscious about their faces. This led to a major demand for facial plastic surgery which included rhinoplasty. Both men and women want to correct perceived imperfections they saw over video chatting apps.
And while Covid is starting to wind down, many people are still working remotely or talking to family and friends through apps like Zoom. So, there is a bigger focus on how our faces look in our day-to-day life, which makes rhinoplasty attractive for men that want to change the shape of their noses.
3. Rhinoplasty Enhances Male Features
Rhinoplasty improves the aesthetic of the nose and makes it look more symmetrical. However, while women often get rhinoplasty to make their noses look slim and cute, men can enhance their masculine features with this procedure. Surgeons can make the nose look wider and more manly with the right techniques.
Men still face some stigma when getting any type of plastic surgery. But, with more advanced medical practices, nose jobs look more natural and men can look how they want without worrying about looking overly feminine or plastic to other people.
4. Plastic Surgery Can Boost Job Prospects
In an ideal world, our attractiveness wouldn’t matter when we go in for a job interview. Unfortunately, that just isn’t reality. People that look more attractive can get further in their careers and life in general.
Because of this, more men are considering facial plastic surgery such as nose jobs. People in business and entertainment have to upkeep their looks and even enhance themselves to get ahead. Attractive and youthful workers are more valued. And, with older stigmas around male beauty going away, rhinoplasty is becoming a popular option, as it can really transform your face.
5. Men Want to Boost Their Self-Confidence
Plastic surgery doesn’t just boost your level of attractiveness, it can also improve your mental health and self-confidence. Looking good is important for our well-being, and some men are insecure about how they look. As our society tries to put focus on improving our minds and bodies with healthy living, male rhinoplasty has been gaining more traction.
Facial deformities, injury from blunt force trauma, and even just a general dislike of your nose shape can make looking in the mirror difficult. Luckily, rhinoplasty can help men regain their confidence and have less anxiety about their looks.
Having that confidence in your looks can do a lot for your personal and professional relationships. This is why so many men are starting to consider rhinoplasty.
6. Rhinoplasty Has Many Medical Benefits
Finally, rhinoplasty procedures do offer a range of medical benefits. Men that have specific health problems can improve the quality of their life with a rhinoplasty. In fact, many men are getting this type of plastic surgery to correct their deviated septum.
A deviated septum blocks the nasal passage and makes it harder to breathe and enjoy life. Men with this condition can develop congestion issues. This can lead to frequent nasal infections and nosebleeds. A deviated septum can also cause sinus headaches from the pressure build-up. And in some cases, men can even get sleep apnea if the blockage is bad enough.
If you are experiencing any of these issues, a nose job could help you. Just schedule a consultation with Dr. Gordon first to discuss the severity of your symptoms. This way he can figure out how much your nose needs to be restructured.
