Are there breast reduction treatments available for men?

ABSOLUTELY: Please seek a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeron. Such a specialist can help guide you with indications and possible techniques. Good luck.

Yes: The procedure you are interested in is for gynecomastia. Your plastic surgeon will discuss your options with you.

Gynecomastia: Liposuction and traditional surgery can be used to reduce the male breast. Weight loss also helps. The surgery is done as an outpatient with return to work in 3 to 5 days. Most scars are well tolerated.

Surgery Helpful.: I have found that gynecomastia, if persistent, is often best treated with partial excision of the prominent glandular tissue as well as liposuction surgery of the peripheral chest area. If the prominence of the chest wall is caused by adipose tissue, then liposculpture surgery alone may suffice. For patients with excess skin, common after weight loss, skin excision may also be necessary.
