What is the estimate cost for male breast surgery?

3-7K: It depends on if you need liposuction and/or direct excision. Insurance may pay for a consult with a plastic surgeon. Otherwise, consider a consult with a local surgeon who offers free cosmetic consults. Also, many plastic surgeons will have prices listed on their websites.

Varies: Prices vary by location and individual surgeon. An estimate on the low side would be $3600 for everything, going up to $10, 000, depending on where you are. Some insurance companies cover male gynecomastia surgery.

Varies.: I would suggest starting with the american society of plastic surgery and/or the aesthetic society of plastic surgery to obtain a list of well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons.
 then, i would suggest you visit a few surgeons whose practices  concentrate on aesthetic surgery. Ask  to see lots of examples of their work and preferably speak/see patients who have had similar procedures.

Variable cost: The cost for male breast surgery varies by region. It also will vary depending on the amount of tissue that needs to be removed. The national average price is approximately $5500 however in the northeast costs are slightly higher and may be up to $8500. Consult a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area and seek a second opinion if necessary.
