Male Breast Reduction is often an option for men who suffer from what is called Gynecomastia. This is the medical term from the Greek language that means, "woman-like" breasts. Gynecomastia might only affect one breast but usually affects both. Although certain drugs and medical problems have been associated with male breast overdevelopment, the cause, in most cases, is unknown. For men who feel self-conscious about the appearance of their breasts, Male Breast Reduction may be the solution. This surgical procedure removes fat and/or glandular tissue from the breasts. In extreme cases, excess skin is also removed, resulting in a chest that is flatter, firmer and more masculine in appearance.
Who is the best candidate for Male Breast Reduction?
Surgery to correct Male Breast Reduction can be performed on healthy men with excess fat in their breasts. The best candidates for surgery have firm, elastic skin that will reshape to the body's new form.
Who is not the best candidate for Male Breast Reduction? Male Breast Reduction surgery may not be appropriate for overweight men who have not attempted to correct the problem with exercise or weight loss. It is not advised for individuals who drink alcohol beverages in excess. The surgeon must carefully evaluate the use of any drugs that are being used to determine if, perhaps, the use of these drugs might be the cause of this condition.
Anesthesia
The decision as to what anesthesia is appropriate for your Male Breast Reduction is best left to the surgeon, however, most often the correction of enlarged male breasts may be performed under general anesthetic. In some cases, local anesthesia plus sedation may be used, in which case. you will be awake, but very relaxed and insensitive to pain.
