Plastic surgery is on the rise. With the industry experiencing steady growth over the past few years, it seems that the tides of public perception are finally beginning to turn. According to Dr. Carlos Mata, men and women across the U.S. are showing an increased interest in cosmetic procedures and non-surgical enhancement. Dr. Mata has seen a marked increase in patients – especially men – inquiring about plastic surgery and cosmetic enhancement. “This seems to be the beginning of a new era, one where plastic surgery and non-surgical enhancement are finally accepted by mainstream society,” Dr. Mata says. “There are real benefits to these cosmetic procedures, and people are starting to realize that.”

Dr. Mata Explains Plastic Surgery’s Newfound Popularity

Dr. Carlos Mata, also known as Dr. Scottsdale®, is a plastic and reconstructive surgeon at Natural Results Plastic Surgery. With 25,000 procedures and 17 years in the industry, Dr. Mata has become an expert in cosmetic procedures and male enhancement. He believes in taking a person’s individual image of “beautiful” and bringing it to life through surgical sculpting. 

He thinks that the increase in interest may be the result of a growing social acceptance of plastic surgery. “With COVID and the explosion of social media like TikTok, plastic surgery is becoming more popular,” he explains. “People are not ashamed of talking about it anymore. Now that the stigma is dying out, men that have only wondered about the benefits of plastic surgery and non-surgical enhancement are gaining the confidence to take the next step and make an appointment.”

The Rise of Non-Surgical Cosmetic Enhancement

Millions of men around the world are plagued by doubts about the size or appearance of their genitals. These thoughts can seriously affect a person’s body image and self-confidence, which in turn can affect relationships, job performance, and other important areas of life. Male enhancement procedures and penis surgeries can help to address cosmetic concerns and increase men’s confidence, but some men feel hesitant to commit to surgical enhancement. As Dr. Mata explains, “It’s a big commitment, and some people may not feel ready to take the risk.” That’s why Dr. Mata offers a range of non-surgical enhancements and non-invasive procedures. 

Dr. Mata typically opts for nonsurgical enhancements rather than phalloplasty (surgical penile lengthening) for a variety of reasons. Perhaps the most important reason is that nonsurgical procedures can be performed in the privacy of the Natural Results exam room, whereas more invasive surgeries requiring anesthesia or incisions would need to be undertaken in the operating room. In addition, nonsurgical enhancements allow for quicker recovery and no scarring.

The Magic Shot™: Dr. Mata’s Proprietary Male Enhancement Procedure

Men are traveling from across the country to receive a new cosmetic procedure created by Dr. Mata himself. The Magic Shot™ treatment utilizes FDA-approved injectable fillers and/or fat transfer to enhance the width and girth of the penis, which can increase both confidence and pleasure. “We use fillers – hyaluronic acid injections, commonly used for lips – to increase the volume of the penis,” Dr. Mata explains. “Placing the filler into the penis allows the patient to gain extra girth and thickness, about 20% on average.” This procedure has little downtime, allowing out-of-state patients to fly in and out of Scottsdale on the same day.

The Popularity of Plastic Surgery is Here to Stay

Dr. Mata believes that the popularity of plastic surgery and cosmetic enhancement will continue to grow indefinitely. “With medicine and technology constantly evolving and reaching new heights, cosmetic procedures will become even safer, more effective, and more popular,” he says. Dr. Mata will continue to explore new avenues and drive advancements in the field, but at the end of the day, he hopes to help people improve their confidence and live happier, more fulfilling lives.
