What Is Gynecomastia?
Whether due to hormones, metabolism or other conditions, gynecomastia causes breast tissue to swell and can make boys and young men feel more self-conscious about their breasts. Many men suffering from gynecomastia feel embarrassed to take off their shirts at the beach, at the gym, or during intimacy. Thanks to advanced technology and surgical procedures, gynecomastia can now be reversed, giving you a more masculine, natural-looking chest.

Male Breast Reduction Recovery
After the breast reduction is performed, small tubes may be placed under the skin to assist with drainage. The affected area will be wrapped with bandages, and you may be asked to wear a compression garment to help position the skin in place.
Is Male Breast Reduction Right for Me?
The patients who benefit most from gynecomastia/breast reduction are men who have a realistic expectation of the results they will receive. If your breast enlargement was caused by medication or weight gain, you should speak with your physician about discontinuing the medication and maintain a healthy weight to keep the breasts at a normal size.

Costs for your male breast reduction surgery will vary depending on the extent of surgery or the number of treatments needed to achieve your desired result.
