Background: The demographic landscape of aesthetic medicine has significantly evolved, with a marked increase in men seeking cosmetic enhancements. This literature review provides a comprehensive analysis of the prevailing trends, clinical approaches, and outcomes associated with aesthetic treatments for men, particularly from the perspective of "premium doctors" who embody advanced expertise and patient-centric care. The review addresses the surge in demand for non-surgical procedures, such as neuromodulators, dermal fillers, and energy-based devices, alongside sustained interest in surgical interventions like blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, and gynecomastia correction, emphasizing male-specific aesthetic goals and ethical considerations.Methods: A systematic search of academic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Cochrane Library) was conducted, focusing on peer-reviewed articles published between 2015 and 2025. Key search terms included "male aesthetics," "men’s cosmetic procedures," "male facial rejuvenation," "male body contouring," and related terms. Inclusion criteria prioritized studies on male-specific aesthetic treatments, clinical outcomes, psychological impacts, and ethical considerations. Data were extracted on procedure types, patient demographics, trends, efficacy, safety, and satisfaction, and synthesized to identify trends and gaps.Results: Findings indicate a surge in demand for non-surgical procedures, including neuromodulators (80–95% wrinkle reduction), dermal fillers (high satisfaction for jawline and chin enhancement), and energy-based devices (effective for skin rejuvenation and fat reduction). Surgical interventions, such as blepharoplasty, rhinoplasty, and gynecomastia correction, demonstrate high efficacy and satisfaction, with male-specific considerations like preserving masculine features. Complication rates are low, though male physiology may increase risks like hematoma. Psychological benefits, including improved self-confidence, are significant drivers. Ethical considerations, such as managing expectations and screening for body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), are critical.Conclusions: The rise in male aesthetic treatments reflects societal shifts towards self-enhancement. Premium doctors, leveraging specialized expertise in male anatomy and advanced techniques, achieve high efficacy and satisfaction. Ongoing research is needed to refine male-specific protocols, standardize outcome measures, and explore long-term impacts. Ethical practice and patient education remain paramount to ensure safety and satisfaction in this growing field.
