Male Breast Reduction

Gynecomastia, or excess development of breast tissue, occurs in as many as 40-60% of men.

This condition can cause extreme embarrassment, social inhibition and self-consciousness for boys and men who suffer from it.

You should first consult with your Summit Plastic Surgery physician to rule out a more serious condition such as liver or endocrine disease. If you are otherwise healthy, breast reduction surgery may significantly help your appearance and self-image.

This procedure is used to remove fat and/or glandular tissue from the breasts. In extreme cases, skin is removed as well. The result is a flatter, firmer and more masculine-looking chest.

Male breast reduction surgery generally takes about 2 hours.
