Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia Treatment) at The Gunter Center in Dallas, Texas
Gynecomastia is a common condition in which excess fatty tissue and/or glandular tissue results in enlarged male breasts. While the problem is cosmetic in nature, it is serious for many men because of the extreme self-consciousness they feel. Men with enlarged breast tissue may feel embarrassed to remove their shirt at the gym or other public venues, and the condition can severely impact their self-confidence. Gynecomastia can be treated with male breast reduction surgery at The Gunter Center in Dallas, Texas to provide a flatter, firmer chest.
Candidates for Male Breast Reduction Surgery
Most healthy men who have excess tissue in the breast area are good candidates for male breast reduction surgery. Reducing the size of the male breasts can give men a positive self-image and enhance their sense of masculinity. For patients who have lost a substantial amount of weight, male breast reduction surgery can help to eliminate the excess skin and create a taut, masculine chest. Male breast reduction surgery to address gynecomastia is a relatively simple procedure that can dramatically improve a man's self-confidence and self-image.
Surgery and Recovery
There are two variations on the male breast reduction procedure, depending on the patient’s needs. If it is necessary to remove fat, skin, and glandular tissue, the procedure will be performed using a scalpel or a scalpel-liposuction combination approach. If only fatty tissue needs to be removed, the procedure can be performed with liposuction alone.
The recovery period associated with the male breast reduction procedure is not extensive. There may be some swelling and redness in the treatment area after surgery. Patients are advised to rest for several days following the procedure, but are able to return to work within a week.
