Large Male Breast-An Easy Solution

Orange County Gynecomastia

Moobs!!!!! What do you do?

Excess fat or glandular tissue in the male breast is a much more common problem among adolescents and older men than its lack of publicity would indicate. An estimated 40 to 60 percent of men suffer from this condition, which can occur in either one or both breasts, at some time in their lives. The cause of gynecomastia is not well understood, but it is suspected that hormonal changes often play a role. Anabolic steroids that contain estrogen, marijuana use, and prescribed hormones are a factor in some instances. Massive weight loss can also result in hanging breasts that detract from a mans appearance.

Plastic surgery offers a solution for men who are troubled by this embarrassing condition. Through the use of liposuction and occasionally direct excision of extra mammary tissue, we can create a firmer, flatter, and better contoured male chest. Downtime is minimal with 1 to 2 days off work. As a male breast surgeon expert, I found men to be extremely pleased with this procedure.
