Vaser Lipolysis of high definition is a very common procedure among men. It is a liposuction by ultrasound that acts on the fatty tissue, turning it into liquid to facilitate its extraction. The goal is to define the body, making it look more athletic without having to make more effort in the gym. It can be done on arms, shoulders, abdomen, pectorals, back, waist and legs.

Other popular procedures are pectoral implants and surgery for gynecomastia. Men resort to the implant when they are not satisfied with the muscular definition despite their physical training. They seek the correction of an undeveloped muscle, due to physical trauma or birth defects.

Gynecomastia consists in the excessive growth of the mammary glands, caused by a hormonal imbalance and in some cases by genetic, tumor and excess fat causes.

Nose reshaping through rhinoplasty and hair implant, are also other procedures very required by men in recent years.
