Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia)

Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia) Surgery in New York & New Jersey

What is Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia, the abnormal growth of male breast tissue, often results from a hormone imbalance, particularly between testosterone and estrogen. Other causes include medications and medical issues. Those feeling self-conscious can explore breast reduction surgery from a Gynecomastia Surgeon in NY for a more confident appearance.

Benefits of Gynecomastia Treatment

  • Increase Boost in self-esteem: This surgery corrects or contours the male chest so that patients can now wear tight clothes while relaxing fully and shirtless.
  • Shape the body: To present a sculpted and appealing appearance of the chest.
  • Better Posture:
     Chest size creates spinal problems that can lead to hunching or deformities within a few years. This surgery reduces the risk of these problems.
  • Encourages Weight Loss: It helps to keep the energy up while exercising by reducing the body weight.
  • Back Comfort: Surgery for men with enlarged breasts can relieve severe back pain.
  • Best Results Over Time: Fat and tissue, once removed, do not return with a healthy lifestyle.

Male Breast Reduction Procedure

Gynecomastia surgery is basically performed using some basic approaches depending on what the patient needs.

  • Initially, anesthesia is given, and one chooses either the general or local anesthesia option for their comfort.
  • Liposuction is also indicated where excessive fatty tissue is present. It involves making a small incision through a cannula and breaking up fat deposits for extraction. Tumescent liposuction, which is the most common method, is the injection of a solution to minimize swelling and bleeding during fat removal.
  • When the other extra skin or tissue needs to be removed, excision might be the procedure used. This can also include repositioning of the areola or nipples. Z

Dr. Moskovitz will consider the best method according to individual anatomy.

Ideal Candidates for Gynecomastia Surgery

Dr. Martin Moskovitz will evaluate your health and condition to determine if you will pass the specific criteria for being a suitable candidate for Gynecomastia Surgery in NY.

  • Ineffective with diet or exercise: When the natural ways are not able to shrink the size of the chest.
  • Wellness condition: Candidates should be devoid of severe medical conditions that may influence recovery.
  • Non-smokers and non-drug users: A healthy lifestyle is essential for optimum healing.
  • Clear goals and positive attitude: Willingness to improve and confidence in the procedure’s benefits.
  • Stable breast development: Ideal for those whose condition is no longer changing.
  • Not overweight: Overall, fitness plays a crucial role in recovery.
  • Unhappy with breast appearance: If you feel your chest looks too large or unattractive.
  • Adolescents may need additional surgeries if breast development continues.

Surgery Preparation

  • Avoid medications that increase bleeding risks before surgery.
  • Keep a tobacco-free lifestyle for weeks before and after the surgery to ensure proper healing.
  • Consumption of a healthy diet is essential for faster recovery and good healing.
  • Following the pre-operative instructions will result in smooth surgical flow.

Risks and Complications

Like all surgeries, gynecomastia surgery has risks, although it is possible to minimize these risks with proper consultation from a board-certified surgeon such as Dr. Martin Moskovitz. Common risks include the following-

  • Infection,
  • Poor anesthesia response,
  • Blood clots,
  • Slow healing,
  • Excessive scarring, and
  • Fluid accumulation under the skin.

Overly aggressive fat removal can result in fluid loss, leading to complications. Glandular tissue removal also might necessitate revision surgery because of uneven results.

It is vital to choose a board-certified Gynecomastia Surgeon in NY with considerable experience to keep complications at bay and to gain a well-deserved outcome. This way, recovery promises to be easier and results more satisfying. Following post-operative tips is paramount for success.

Am I a good candidate for Male Breast Surgery?

The ideal candidate for male breast surgery is men who have big or saggy breasts, which can be due to hormonal imbalance, heredity, obesity, or some specific drugs and medications that affect one or the other breast. The ideal candidates for Gynecomastia Surgery in NY are men who do not smoke and are usually not overweight, having firm and elastic skin that can be contour-fitted to the shape developed post-surgery.

Gynecomastia Recovery

Most gynecomastia patients recover well, though the first two weeks can be uncomfortable due to soreness and swelling. Rest is vital during this period, and intense exercise should be avoided to prevent complications. Your doctor may put you on a compression garment to assist in skin molding to your new shape and to help minimize swelling.

Return to work and light exercise after two weeks, though bruising and swelling may persist for several weeks afterward. Full recovery may take time, with final results often not appearing until six months. To speed healing, maintain a healthy diet, get plenty of rest, and walk daily. Don’t hesitate to ask for help during recovery for tasks that may be difficult.
