Male Facial Rejuvenation
The rise in popularity of facial cosmetic enhancement for men has been spurred on in part by increasing social media awareness. Traditionally, men have been fearful not only of looking unnatural but also for undertaking procedures that they may deem to be uncommon for their gender. However, today with online media celebrating many men revealing their natural transformations, those barriers are quickly falling away. This past year I have performed almost as many facelifts in men as in women.

A Leap Forward
I am thrilled to share this Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America issue focused on male facial rejuvenation. It is a leap forward to devote an entire issue to a heretofore underrepresented focus area.

With this issue we cast a wide net and explore in depth the myriad of options to rejuvenate the male face. From the latest advances in hair transplantation to injectables to implants to surgical approaches tailored to the needs of men, this issue covers the entire spectrum of options.

Minimally Invasive Male Facial Rejuvenation
The development of minimally invasive, non-surgical, and office-based procedures that have minimal downtime has stimulated an interest among men who may seek cosmetic treatments to increase competitiveness and appear youthful in the workplace. There has also been greater media attention on the male appearance and grooming along with increasing acceptance of cosmetic procedures within society. Achieving a successful cosmetic treatment in a male patient requires the physician to recognize the gender differences that exist.

Direct Neck Lift for Men
Direct neck lift offers an excellent surgical technique for men seeking to rejuvenate the neck and avoid a full rhytidectomy. In this chapter, we provide an overview of direct submentoplasty techniques, as well as clinical pearls to consider in the preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative periods. Different surgical incisions and resultant scars in the anterior neck are discussed and illustrated with figures. Given the degree of variation of submental fullness with which patients present, it is beneficial to be familiar with several different techniques to address the submental and submandibular areas.

Updated Review of Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Alopecia, a widespread issue affecting both genders, often manifests as androgenetic alopecia, although a thorough examination is needed to rule out other causes.

Male Deep-Plane Face and Neck Lifting
In this article, the authors describe their preferred advanced deep-plane techniques and modifications that have universally improved outcomes and durability in both men and women. Performing a proper extended deep-plane facelift and neck lift avoids the need to camouflage scars and stigmata of lifts seen in superficial musculoaponeurotic system plication and other techniques. In the author ’s experience, vertical vector deep-plane surgery is more durable, natural, and less reliant on lipofilling and volume addition. The subtleties of examination and analysis, surgical technique, clinical outcomes, and gender-specific co...
