Men are increasingly getting plastic surgery for their abs –

We recently discussed that men are increasingly getting jaw surgery in the hunt to become a giga-chad. It seems that this is not the only surgery men are willing to get to enhance their appearance.

GQ spoke with Dr. Daniel Markmann, a plastic surgeon who is an expert in six-pack etching, a process that effectively removes the last layer of abdominal fat on a man to give him a more chiseled look. His clientele is now 30% male, and the surgeries they go for are mostly to improve the appearance of their abs.

Dr. Gregory Lakin also shed some light on the fact that celebrities also get this procedure. His patients reportedly include actors, dancers, singers, models and more, but he obviously could not release more information about these clients.

Not everyone who gets ab enhancement is a celebrity, but to get one, apparently you have to already be in pretty good shape, and you have to be able to maintain that shape to maintain the chiseled look.
