Male Breast Reduction
Let's face it guys! Just as there is more pressure on women to maintain their looks, there is also more pressure on men.

Men can develop prominent fat deposits on the chest from obesity, or even develop rudimentary breast tissue (glandular tissue) as is the case with "gynecomastia", a medical condition. These conditions can be worsened by certain medications, and activities that can stimulate this glandular tissue development. Very rarely, this could even be a breast cancer!

What is the recovery like and when will I see my final result after male breast surgery?
After an initial 3-5 day worsening of swelling after male breast reduction surgery, there will be a gradual decrease for several months. This process occurs at different rates for different people, and is further affected by one's postoperative activities. Therefore, this period of swelling is variable, but for most men, the majority of the swelling will be gone by 3-5 months. Typically, patients will resume exercise 1 month after surgery, which will aid in additional volume loss by the 3-5 month period. If there are incisions placed on the chest, these will continue to mature and fade during the first year.
Will insurance cover my breast reduction surgery?
