Gynecomastia (Male Breasts)

Male Breast Reduction

If you are ashamed because your breasts are enlarged and have the appearance of women’s breasts, you are not alone. You may even hide your condition by keeping your shirt on in social settings such as the beach, swimming pool or fishing with a group of friends.

Gynecomastia, commonly referred to as man-breast or man-boobs, is swelling of the breast tissue in boys or men. It is more common problem then most think. Gynecomastia is caused by an imbalance of the hormones estrogen and testosterone. Most often older men develop gynecomastia from normal changes in hormone levels. Gynecomastia usually does not possess a serious health problem, but it can be difficult to cope with the lifestyle and embarrassment of the symptoms.

Advances in surgical techniques including SmartLipo and VASER LipoSelection have made the removal of fatty breast tissue a quick and easy process with minimal chances of complication and down time. These procedures are now performed in the physicians office under a local anesthetic.

Is a surgical solution right for me?

Gynecomastia surgery is a highly individualized procedure and you should only consider it for yourself, not to fulfill someone else’s desires.

Liposuction may be a good option for you if:

You are physically healthy and of relatively normal weight
You have realistic expectations
Your breast development has stabilized
You are bothered by the feeling that your breasts are too large

Enhancing your appearance with gynecomastia surgery

Gynecomastia can cause emotional discomfort, be humiliating and impair your self confidence. Some men may even avoid certain physical activities and intimacy simply to hide their condition.

Gynecomastia is characterized by:

Excess localized fat
Excess glandular tissue development
A combination of both excess fat and glandular tissue
Gynecomastia may be present unilaterally or bilaterally
