Gynecomastia
Men's Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia Surgery) for San Francisco Bay Area Patients
Gynecomastia affects approximately 10 percent of the male population. At our Marin County practice in the San Francisco area, we provide men's breast reduction to patients seeking treatment for this condition. Gynecomastia (enlarged male breasts), although rarely discussed, is a common condition. As we explain to the gynecomastia patients we see at our San Francisco area office, the exact cause of is still unknown, but treatment is readily available through men's breast reduction surgery.
The Men's Breast Reduction Procedure
During the men's breast reduction surgical procedure, Dr. Poulos and Dr. Hvistendahl reduces the size of the breast by removing excess fat and glandular tissue, leaving you with a contoured chest that is flatter and firmer. In most cases, this can be performed by liposuction only, without the need for extensive scarring. New ultrasonic technology (LipoSelection) allows selective melting of the unwanted tissue with minimal pain and bruising. Once you have undergone men's breast reduction surgery for gynecomastia, you will surely feel more confident and attractive, even more masculine. And, because San Francisco surgeon Dr. Poulos and Dr. Hvistendahl perform the men's breast reduction procedure for his patients with minimal incision, you will suffer no embarrassing scarring. In short, you will be able to look in the mirror and be pleased with what you see.
