Male chest enhancement, known as pectoral implants, is now more popular than ever. Increasing numbers of men are choosing to enhance their physique, body symmetry, and self image with pectoral implants. This procedure can be performed to enhance an already shapely physique, or pectoral implants may be used for those who simply do not have the time or desire to spend countless hours at the gym.
Pectoral augmentation, commonly referred to as pec implants, is a surgical procedure designed to add fullness, size, and shape to the male chest. This procedure involves inserting a soft, high grade, solid silicone implant into a space created under the pectoral muscles. To the touch, it has the feeling and consistency of a flexed muscle. Unlike female breast augmentation, after this procedure is properly completed and healed, there is no reason to require additional surgery in the future. Frequently, liposuction of the love handles, abdomen, waist and back or any combination thereof is performed to further enhance the overall shape and contour of the upper torso.
Male pectoral implants come in a variety of shapes and sizes. A consultation and physical examination is needed to determine the most appropriate size and shape for each individual. Generally, scars are easily hidden in the armpit area within the hair bearing skin. An ideal candidate for pectoral implants is a man who is dissatisfied with his underdeveloped chest and who is free of any pre-existing medical complications including heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, skin connective tissue disorders, etc.
During a pectoral implant consultation the initial consultation is extremely important to review the patient's medical history, goals, and expectations, as well as to build mutual trust and rapport. Before and after photos from previous pectoral implants are reviewed. The procedure is carefully explained and the alternatives discussed. A complete evaluation and physical examination is performed for each individual patient to ensure that expectations can be met by the procedure.
The size and shape of the implants to be used are next determined. The surgical plan as well as the incisions or scar placement are reviewed. It is important to understand that every effort is made to accomplish the desired set of goals. However, no guarantees as to the exact size, projection, and contour of the male chest can be made by any cosmetic surgeon. Prospective patients are encouraged to speak with previous patients about their surgery and results.
