Male Breast Reduction

Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia):

Gynecomastia affects an estimated 40 to 60 percent of men in the United States. Due to hereditary factors, excess unwanted fat deposits, located in the chest area, can cause overdeveloped or woman-like breasts in men. For men who feel self-conscious about the appearance of their chest, male contouring for overdeveloped breasts using the liposculpture procedure (tumescent method), a recently developed surgical technique, can address this area. Liposculpture can be an effective tool for the permanent removal of these localized excess fatty tissues, to restore a slimmer, masculine, natural chest contour.

The ideal candidate for liposculpture is a healthy man with localized areas of unwanted fat deposits in the breast area that are disproportionate to the rest of the chest. Following surgery, the patient will wear a specific, snug fitting garment for several weeks to accelerate skin shrinkage, minimize swelling and bruising. Returning to normal activity will vary depending on the amount of fat removed and the number of areas involved. Generally, most patients return to office based work in one week.
