Gynecomastia and Male Breast Reduction

For males, excess fat and breast tissue in the chest region can create the appearance of breasts. This condition, known as gynecomastia, can be a difficult and frustrating physical irregularity for many men to live with. Our surgeons in Austin can help these men using male breast reduction techniques to treat gynecomastia.

The Male Breast Reduction Procedure

Depending on the severity of the case and the composition of the breast tissue, our surgeon will choose the procedure that will produce the most ideal results. For men with mainly fatty tissue in the breasts, liposuction may provide for ample reduction of breast volume. In cases in which dense glandular breast tissue is causing the appearance of breasts, our surgeon will make an incision around the nipple to access and remove the appropriate amount of tissue. Liposuction and breast tissue removal can be combined if necessary to address breasts with an overabundance of both tissues.

Results of Male Breast Reduction - Smooth, Flat and Masculine

Male breast reduction yields a more masculine appearance to the chest area in males with gynecomastia. By evenly reducing the amount of excess tissue in the breasts, the chest appears flatter and more toned. Men who have undergone this procedure are often extremely pleased with the results and benefit from increased self-confidence and a more positive body image. Contact us today for more information about male breast reduction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are walk-ins welcome?

A: No. Patients can only see the doctors by appointment.


Q: Can more than one plastic surgery procedure be performed at the same time?

A: Yes, but it will depend on what type of procedures are chosen. Your surgeon will be the one to decide which procedures can be performed simultaneously.


Q: Will my insurance be accepted?

A: Insurance is accepted on an individual basis. We suggest that you call your insurance company and make sure that we are on their provider list, since it is the patient's responsibility to know who is or is not on his or her particular insurance plan. The patient should never depend on the doctor or the office staff to know the details of the patient's particular policy.


Q: Does PSCA perform permanent make-up or hair removal procedures?

A: No.
