Men Undergo Some Cosmetic Procedures More Than Women

    BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND, November 21, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- During 2009, the cosmetic surgery performed more frequently on men than on women was the otoplasty (ear reshaping) procedure, according to stats from The Hospital Group.

Otoplasty, or, ear correction, is a popular procedure amongst both men and women of all ages. Ears that protrude or appear overly large can often cause great emotional distress, which is why ear correction is one of our most common cosmetic procedures.

A spokesperson for The Hospital Group, said: "We carry out more ear reshaping procedures on men as they tend to suffer with this problem a lot more than women do. Women more commonly grow their hair and therefore can cover ears they are not completely satisfied with."

Whatever the problem, in the hands of a skilled plastic surgeon, most of these imperfections can be considerably improved. Ear correction can therefore give the patient both a visual and also a psychological improvement.

The Hospital Group is one of the UK's leading providers of plastic surgery, number one in Obesity Surgery and Breast Enlargement experts. So whatever your requirements, you're in safe hands!

Since The Hospital Group was established in 1992, it has risen to become the UK's biggest weight loss surgery providers, performing more gastric band procedures last year than the NHS.
