Male Breast Reduction Surgeon in Santa Monica, California

As a man who himself has been frustrated with shirts clinging to his chest, Dr. Teitelbaum will be able to relate to what you tell him about how gynecomastia bothers you.

The development of gynecomastia, also called "man-boobs," is more common than you may think, and happens to most men to one extent or another. It's important to remember that there are always options, and Dr. Teitelbaum will discuss yours with you. Like tailoring a fine suit, male breast reduction surgery is about creating a more handsome, sculpted chest.

There are two main types of tissue involved in gynecomastia, one of which does not respond well to liposuction, so it should come as no surprise that multiple techniques are often used in tandem to accomplish the goal. Fatty tissue can be liposuctioned away, whereas the tougher, fibrous tissue often associated with gynecomastia must be excised. Dr. Teitelbaum will help you become familiar with the pros and cons, as well as how your unique physique will affect your male breast reduction surgery.
