Gynecomastia is known as male breast enlargement. It's a common and distressing disorder of the endocrine system that causes men to develop a feminine chest appearance.
Thanks to the procedure's safety record and incredible results, male breast reductions have never been more popular. In fact, men now account for more than 40% of all breast reduction surgeries.
Double board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Reinblatt, recommends gynecomastia surgery for patients who:
In most cases, gynecomastia surgery is a blend of procedures and techniques designed to contour a more masculine chest. It's done under intravenous sedation or general anesthesia and commonly includes the following surgeries:
Dr. Reinblatt will begin most gynecomastia surgeries with liposuction to remove unwanted fat from the area. While she extracts the excess volume, she will also contour the chest and restore your masculine definition.
Liposuction can only address unwanted fat. As such, Dr. Reinblatt often performs excision as well to remove loose skin and excess glandular development from the chest.
Once Dr. Reinblatt has sculpted a flat and firm chest, it is likely that your nipple-areola complex will look a bit off. To ensure a natural and balanced outcome, she will reposition the nipple and areola to a different location on the chest.
Once your swelling has dissipated, the results of your male breast reduction will be apparent. Dr. Reinblatt carefully places the incisions within the natural contours of your body, so they will be very difficult to identify once the healing process is complete.
Gynecomastia surgical results tend to be very long-lasting. However, you need to address the underlying cause of your condition, otherwise your gynecomastia can return. In addition, your chest can change in appearance over the years due to the natural aging process.
