About Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia is a condition that can negatively affect a man's self-confidence. Those who suffer from the problem of having "female-like breasts" experience enlargement of breast tissue, a physical characteristic that can cause embarrassment for men.
To reduce or eliminate gynecomastia; male breast reduction is commonly performed. During this procedure, our Bay Area surgeons can use tumescent liposuction (VASER or LipoSelection) to significantly improve this condition. If the patient's gynecomastia is extreme, he may also require repositioning of the nipple. The result is a more masculine appearance.
Ideal candidates for male breast reduction, or any surgical procedure, are those who are:
- Physically healthy
- Aware of the possible risks
- Looking for improvement, not perfection
