Breast Augmentation | Breast Lift | Breast Reduction | Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia is simply the medical term used to describe a condition of over-developed or enlarged breasts in men. Common in men of any age, it can be the result of hormonal changes, heredity conditions, disease or the use of certain drugs. Also known as a breast reduction for men, gynecomastia is the surgical correction of this condition in men that may cause emotional discomfort and impair self confidence.

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 (one breast) or bilaterally (both breasts)

For men who feel self-conscious about their appearance, Gynecomastia may be a solution for you. During your initial consultation with the plastic surgeon you will discuss the specific details of the procedure. Your past medical history will be reviewed along with a physical examination. The surgeon will make specific recommendations concerning the procedure and approach. We look forward to answering all of your questions and making sure you are an educated, confident patient when considering this procedure.
