Plastic surgery isn’t just for women—and the growing number of men choosing cosmetic procedures proves it. Whether it’s to correct enlarged breast tissue, tighten skin after weight loss, or define a stronger core, more men than ever are turning to plastic surgery in Houston to feel more confident and look more athletic.

At Body by Ravi Plastic Surgery & Aesthetics, Dr. Ravi Somayazula, a double board-certified plastic surgeon in Houston, specializes in male body contouring, including gynecomastia surgery, liposuction, and abdominal etching. These procedures are designed to enhance masculine features and help you achieve a sculpted, natural-looking result.

Why Men Choose Plastic Surgery

Men often seek surgery for one of two reasons:

  • They’ve lost a significant amount of weight and are dealing with stubborn fat or loose skin.
  • They’re already in good shape but want more definition—especially in the chest, abdomen, or jawline.

Diet and exercise can take you far, but some areas just don’t respond the way you want. That’s where surgical body contouring comes in.

Gynecomastia Surgery: Flattening the Chest

Gynecomastia is a common condition where men develop excess breast tissue, often creating a puffy or feminine-looking chest. It can be caused by hormone changes, genetics, certain medications, or weight gain—and it doesn’t always go away with exercise.

What Gynecomastia Surgery Involves:

  • Removal of glandular tissue and/or fat using liposuction, direct excision, or both
  • Small, hidden incisions near the areola or chest fold
  • Sculpting for a flatter, firmer, and more masculine chest contour

Dr. Ravi customizes each procedure based on your anatomy and degree of tissue. Most patients return to work in a few days and are back to workouts within 2–3 weeks.

Ab Etching & Liposuction: Get the Sculpted Look

Even with consistent workouts, some men struggle with definition around the abdomen, flanks, or lower back. That’s where liposuction and abdominal etching come in.

What is Ab Etching?

Ab etching is a form of high-definition liposuction that selectively removes fat to emphasize the natural lines of your abdominal muscles. The result? A tighter, more athletic midsection—with real definition.

Common treatment areas include:

  • Abdomen (six-pack etching)
  • Love handles/flanks
  • Lower back ("V-cut" sculpting)
  • Jawline (submental liposuction for a cleaner profile)

Post-Weight Loss Surgery for Men

Have you lost 40, 60, or even 100 pounds? Congratulations—but you may be left with loose skin that hides your progress. Body contouring after weight loss can help:

    • Tummy tuck for excess skin and tightening
  • Chest lift or gynecomastia surgery
  • Arm or thigh lifts for improved proportions
  • Lower body lift if needed

This isn’t about vanity—it’s about restoring confidence after your transformation.
