Gynecomastia Procedure for Male Breast Reduction

Many men that come to our clinic complain about being too self-conscious when wearing tight shirts, in the locker room, at the gym, or in the swimming pool. Hormonal changes at puberty, anabolic and bodybuilding steroids, and significant weight gain can cause gynecomastia. Irrespective of the cause, a male breast reduction surgery procedure can make a significant difference in your social life. You can find out more about this procedure below.
Statistics
Male breast reduction surgeries are among the fastest growing procedures. Since 2010, male breast surgeries have grown by 36% as the stigma around plastic surgery keeps reducing. Approximately 50% of men have lived with enlarged breasts at some point in their lives. Young men can experience enlarged breast tissue at puberty, which goes away after a few years or can last until adulthood. Gynecomastia can also develop after middle age peaks and testosterone levels begin to slow down.
How Male Breast Reduction Takes Place
Specific training and skills are critical in conducting the procedure of male breast reduction. The approach of treatment is determined after a consultation that determines the cause of male breast development. Gynecomastia surgery is done to remove the glandular breast tissue that can swell due to hormonal imbalance. Dr. Chernoff uses ultrasound-assisted liposuction.
