Male Breast Reduction Procedure Description

After determining that the large breasts are not due to serious glandular or hormonal problems, power assisted liposuction is used to extract excess fat. For some patients, the glands elements under the nipple are removed via a small incision beneath the areola.

The 2-3 mm scars are hidden in inconspicuous areas. Occasionally, a surgical breast reduction is needed in men who have very large breasts. This is especially true in men who have successfully lost a significant amount of weight. This outpatient procedure is done under general anesthesia.

Recovery From Male Breast Reduction

  • After the procedure, a thin surgical garment is worn for about four weeks.
  • Minimal discomfort is associated with this procedure.
  • Most patients can resume exercise in three weeks and return to work in three to five days.
  • Although dramatic difference is seen immediately, some swelling persists for about one month.

Other Procedures Performed In Conjunction With Male Breast Reduction

Liposuction of the upper trunk and abdomen can be combined with male breast reduction to improve the appearance of the upper body.

Surgery can be coupled with another enhancement for men who are seeking a full anti-aging treatment, including facial rejuvenation, body sculpting, or others.
