Background:
Men are increasingly seeking out cosmetic procedures, especially minimally and noninvasive body-contouring procedures.
Objective:
With the relative lack of scientific evidence related specifically to the use of body-contouring procedures in men, there is a need for more education and scientific discussion in this growing group.
Materials And Methods:
Understanding the male anatomy and aesthetics, and how body-contouring techniques and new modalities can be used in men, can lead to better outcomes.
Conclusions:
This review of body contouring in men emphasizes currently available literature and author experiences.
