Over the last few decades, men have come to appreciate the benefits of plastic surgery. With procedures developed specifically for male patients, men can enhance their masculinity, minimize aesthetic concerns and rejuvenate their overall appearance.
Dr. Greco recognizes that many men feel apprehensive about pursuing elective surgery. That is why he offers discreet, comprehensive consultations, during which he explains how various procedures can help you look your best.
Popular Procedures for Men
One of the more common concerns among men is overdeveloped chest tissue. Men with this condition often feel embarrassed to take off their shirts at the beach or at the gym. While exercise and a proper diet can help, often these measures are not enough. For men who want a flat, masculine chest, Dr. Greco uses liposuction alone or liposuction combined with an excision technique to remove the excess fat and tissue.
Liposuction is often chosen by men who are otherwise fit but have stubborn, localized fat deposits in the stomach and lower back. It can also sculpt the remaining tissue to define the abdominal muscles, a technique called liposculpture. Many men also choose liposuction of the neck and chin, which can eliminate a double chin and create a more masculine neckline.
Neck liposuction is usually appropriate for younger patients with relatively small amounts of excess fat and elastic skin that will retract once the fat is gone. For mature men with excess skin folds and displaced fat in the neck, Dr. Greco often performs neck lift surgery, which creates a more youthful neck and jaw contour.
Sun, wind and cold can cause wrinkles, folds and jowls to develop at a relatively young age, making a man appear older than he feels. Many of these changes can be reversed with facelift surgery: Dr. Greco removes excess skin and fatty tissue and gently repositions the facial skin for a smoother, more youthful look. A facelift improves the lower face; other procedures, such as a brow lift and eyelid surgery, address signs of aging in the upper face.
A strong, pronounced jawline is one of the most important characteristics of the male face. Depending on each patient’s needs, Dr. Greco uses a variety of techniques to create a stronger jawline, most commonly chin implants and jaw implants. The implants are placed through small incisions under the chin or inside the cheeks, and they appear completely natural once healing is complete.

I am very happy with my results!! Way better than I thought it would be. The healing process was more simple than I thought. I went back to work two weeks after with no problems. I dropped another pants size after the swelling went down. Very pleased!
Dr. Greco and his staff are amazing! I am so pleased with my results and I could not ask for anything different. My body was transformed exactly as I wanted! Dr Greco is the best and has the best nurses and staff around. He is very thorough and hands down the best around!
From the very first conversation with Christa in talking about the procedure to the most recent follow-up, my experience has been overwhelmingly positive and wonderful. Dr. Greco deserves all the accolades he has received and his team of nurses are the best at what they do. They take all the time necessary to answer every question at every step of the process. I have been amazed at how well the team works together and would recommend this office and Dr. Greco specifically to anyone looking into plastic surgery.
Most amazing experience. Dr. Greco and his staff were very informative, attentive, honest and professional. Highly recommend Dr. Greco and his team to anyone! If you are looking for a surgeon that cares and with satisfactory results, then Dr. Greco is the one for you!
Dr. Greco and his staff have been nothing but amazing from day one! They answered every single one (and there were many) of my questions not only leading up to my procedure, but as well as throughout my recovery. No one ever made me feel like my questions or concerns were silly or ridiculous. Dr. Greco was also very easy to reach outside of the office when I needed him. The nursing staff went above and beyond to ensure I clearly understood all of my post-op care and that I was comfortable. I felt safe and cared for on the day of my procedure and they communicated well with my spouse. I am so grateful for Dr. Greco and his staff for helping restore my confidence as well as eliminating my lower back pain. I wish I had done this sooner!! If you’re on the fence, don’t hesitate any longer, you will NOT regret it!!
I have used him before years ago and was extremely pleased, and the second time around I was just as pleased. Very professional staff!
Happy he helped me age gracefully. Would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking!
This surgery has been life changing, it has been a confidence booster and I have been very pleased with Dr. Greco and his recommendations. He did not try to sell me on a surgery that I did not need. Very happy !
I lost about 100 pounds and still wasn’t happy with my body. As far as the excess skin and hanging. So I reached out to Dr. Greco and he helped make me feel more comfortable and more myself than I ever have. Thank you Dr. Greco!
Dr. Greco is the best plastic surgeon in Savannah. He is one talented man! He transformed my body and the results are phenomenal. He gave me my confidence back after a decade of 3 pregnancies and weight gain. I can’t stay out the mirror! I say I look better now than I did before kids. The mommy makeover is worth it! If it’s just a thought, just do it. I’d do it over again just for the results. The pain was minimal. More tender and sore than anything. I was up walking by day 3 and off pain medicine. I truly believe Dr. Greco played a huge part in my easy recovery. My scars are already starting to fade beautifully and I’m only 20 days post op. I tell everyone if you’re wanting anything done cosmetic, go to Dr. Greco. After all it’s on your body forever! His professionalism, bedside manners and opinions are on point! I can’t thank this man enough. Forever grateful.
Dr. Greco is very professional and thorough when I did my consult. He did a great job and I am very happy with the results. His staff is amazing! They are so nice, helpful and ready to answer all my questions. I would highly recommend Dr. Greco and the Georgia Institute of Plastic Surgery.
