Premier Plastic Surgery of Kansas City, serving residents of Kansas City and beyond for 22 years, has redesigned its extensive website to include a separate section on Cosmetic Surgery for Males, a new Skin Care Centre, and a Plastic Surgery Blog that features breaking news on emerging research, techniques and products.
According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, cosmetic surgery for males increased by 17 per cent last year, with liposuction being the surgical procedure most in demand, followed by eyelid surgery, nose surgery, breast reduction (to treat enlarged breasts), and hair transplantation.
The team of cosmetic surgeons at Premier Plastic Surgery provide the full spectrum of face and body surgical procedures for men. Male facial cosmetic surgery includes face lift, nose surgery, neck lift, eye brow lift, eyelid surgery, ear surgery, and chin augmentation. Male body cosmetic surgery includes breast reduction (enlarged breasts in men is a common problem), liposuction (removing isolated pockets of fat), tummy tuck, lower body lift, arm lift. Scar reduction is also offered to address both appearance and functional limitation, whether the scars are from trauma, burns or previous surgery.
Men also come to the clinic for hand surgery related to work injuries or particular hand conditions. Dr. JB Moore, founder of Premier Plastic Surgery of Kansas City, explains that he, and the other two members of the surgical team, Dr. Brad Storm and Dr. Federico Gonzalez, are board-certified plastic surgeons and board-certified hand surgeons, which is in itself a highly specialized field. He points out that, for more than 20 years, they have treated work-related injuries from Kansas City, MO/KS metropolitan and surrounding communities, as well as complex cases from the entire Midwest.

As well as offering detailed information on cosmetic and reconstructive surgery and skin rejuvenation, the website now offers a Plastic Surgery Blog, which provides up-to-the minute news on emerging research, techniques and products, as well as tips and special promotions, and Premier Plastic Surgery's own research initiatives.
At Premier Plastic Surgery, the team of board-certified cosmetic surgeons, Drs. Moore, Storm and Gonzalez, have worked together for 15 years and have 60 years of combined experience that encompasses the full spectrum of cosmetic and reconstructive surgery. All three are board-certified plastic surgeons; all three are board-certified hand surgeons with years of experience, and all three have additional sub-specialties.
"We stay at the forefront of our field by keeping abreast of advances in technology, techniques, and products in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery and skin rejuvenation," says Dr. Moore. "That can mean acquiring advanced certification in endoscopic surgery or new laser technology or the latest dermal fillers, or it can mean getting involved in research to evaluate new breast implant technology. It's a field that's always advancing."
