WHAT IS GYNECOMASTIA?
Gynecomastia is a condition that causes men to abnormally grow breast tissue. Often, gynecomastia happens because of hormone issues, certain medications, steroids, weight gain, or genetics. This condition can cause frustration or embarrassment in certain situations, such as by the pool or at the gym.

IS GYNECOMASTIA FOR YOU?
If you maintain a healthy lifestyle, but nothing seems to work, gynecomastia can help reduce excess breast tissue. Additionally, gynecomastia can help men who have stretched skin after dramatic weight loss. During your consultation we will assess your condition, set realistic expectations, and determine if this surgery is right for you.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Following your gynecomastia surgery, you will need to wear a compression garment, which will support the chest and minimize swelling, bleeding, or bruising. If we used a reconstructive approach during the surgery, you may need a small tube to help drain the fluid. Right after your surgery, you should see a dramatic difference. Most men feel extremely satisfied with their new appearance. To ensure you heal properly, we will provide detailed, post-op instructions that outline how to properly care for your incisions.
