I was reading an article about how much of an increase there has been in males getting cosmetic procedures over the past years. While male procedures are still only 9% male compared to 91% female the growth rate is the same as for females. Here's some numbers from 2007 as reported by the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.

Nose reshaping (74,090)
Eyelid surgery (34,896)
Liposuction (32,800)
Male breast reduction (21,311)
Hair transplants (13,393)

I'm surpised to see male breast reductions beat hair transplant. I guess there's lots of manboobs out there or something . I also think that with some of the great work that these top docs are doing hair transplanst will be moving up that list.

As for liposuction I'm not a big believer in getting a cosmetic procedure for something that can be achieved through diet and exercise. Too bad diet and excerise doesn't work for hair.

flyby,

Interesting statistics! That is kind of funny about male breast reduction being above hair transplants. I guess the number of manboobs are greater than the number of baldies
