Modern Surgical Arts in Highlands Ranch, CO, proudly offers specialized male plastic surgery procedures, like the daddy do-over, to help men rejuvenate their appearance, restore confidence, and recapture their more youthful physique. Many fathers experience changes in their bodies due to age, lifestyle adjustments, and the demands of parenthood. The Daddy Do-Over is a tailored solution to address these concerns and help men look as young and dynamic as they feel.
What is a Daddy Do-Over?
A daddy do-over is a combination of cosmetic surgical procedures to address multiple aesthetic concerns in men. Similar to the mommy makeover concept, this procedure is designed to help men reverse the physical effects of fatherhood, aging, and lifestyle changes. Each treatment plan is customized for the patient’s needs and goals, but common procedures include:
Gynecomastia Surgery
Up to 60% of men experience some form of gynecomastia in their lifetime, regardless of their overall health or weight. Gynecomastia, or enlarged male breasts, is mainly caused by excess male breast tissue, not fat. This means it is resistant to diet and exercise. Gynecomastia surgery removes this tissue through liposuction, excision, or a combination of both. The procedure is minimally invasive and results in a firmer, flatter, and more masculine chest.
Jawline Enhancement
A well-defined jawline is a key feature of a youthful and masculine appearance. Jawline enhancement may involve implants or surgical contouring to strengthen facial definition and reduce sagging or jowls. Dermal fillers can also be used for a non-surgical approach. The goal is to create a more chiseled jawline that frames the face and complements the surrounding facial features for a natural-looking result.
Body Contouring
Body contouring targets stubborn fat deposits and excess skin, particularly in the abdomen, flanks, chest, and thighs. Procedures can include liposuction on many areas of the body and/or tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) to sculpt a firmer, slimmer silhouette. During the abdominoplasty procedure, abdominal muscles are also tightened to improve core strength.
Am I a Good Candidate for a Daddy Do-Over?
Male patients who want to improve the appearance of their “dad bod” and boost their confidence can benefit from daddy do-over surgery. Ideal candidates are men with no underlying health conditions who have unwanted fat, loose skin, or loss of definition in their facial features and are seeking a more youthful, defined, masculine appearance. Patients should close to their ideal body weight for best results.
Realistic expectations and a commitment to healthy lifestyle habits after surgery are important for a successful recovery and long-term results. A consultation with board-certified cosmetic and plastic surgeons Dr. Kamran Dastoury and Dr. Paul Zwiebel is necessary to determine whether you are a good candidate.
How to Prepare for a Daddy Do-Over
Before your daddy-do over procedure, your board-certified plastic surgeon will provide a detailed list of pre-operative instructions to ensure you are healthy and ready for surgery. Preparation begins with a comprehensive consultation at Modern Surgical Arts to discuss individual goals, procedure options, and medical history. Physical examinations and blood tests may be required to ensure you are of good health and will recover safely from surgery.
Before surgery, patients who are smokers must stop using all nicotine or tobacco products for at least six weeks. Certain blood-thinning medications and supplements may also need to be avoided, as these increase surgical risks. Patients are also advised to maintain a healthy diet with proper hydration to prepare their bodies for recovery. It is helpful to meal prep before surgery so that there is a supply of healthy meals to enjoy after surgery. Patients must also arrange for transportation on the day of surgery and have someone available to help with cooking, chores, and errands during the first few days of recovery.
Daddy Do-Over Procedure
The daddy do-over is performed under general anesthesia at our on-site state-of-the-art surgical center. Your board-certified plastic surgeon will perform a variety of procedures determined at your initial consultation. Surgery will take about 3-5 hours, depending on the procedures included in your customized treatment plan. The surgical team at Modern Surgical Arts tailors every aspect of the process to maximize safety and aesthetic results with advanced surgical techniques.
Daddy Do-Over Recovery & Results
The benefit of a single surgery to address multiple concerns is that patients will only need one recovery period. Recovery varies based on the specific procedures performed. Patients should expect moderate swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated areas, which will significantly improve after one week. Prescription pain medication and compression garments may be provided to minimize swelling, promote healthy blood circulation, and encourage optimal healing.
After 1-2 weeks, patients can return to work and light activities, but heavy lifting and strenuous exercise must be avoided for about six weeks, or until you have been cleared by your surgeon. Visible improvements can be seen within a few weeks post-op, with final results continuing to develop for up to six months as swelling subsides. Results are long-lasting, especially when paired with ongoing healthy habits to maintain a stable weight.
