Enlarged breasts in men, known as gynecomastia, can have a significant impact on one’s confidence and quality of life.

Led by Dr. Louis Iorio, a highly respected plastic surgeon double board-certified in plastic surgery and general surgery, our center provides comprehensive solutions for gynecomastia tailored to each individual’s needs.

What Is Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia, characterized by the enlargement of male breast tissue, is a common condition with various underlying causes, including hormonal imbalances, genetics, obesity, certain medications, and other health factors. This condition can arise during adolescence or later in life, impacting individuals physically and emotionally.

How Does Gynecomastia Surgery Work?

Male breast reduction surgery, or reduction mammoplasty, is a cosmetic and reconstructive procedure aimed at reducing the size of the breasts. During the initial consultation, Dr. Iorio evaluates the patient’s breast size, shape, overall health, and any underlying causes contributing to gynecomastia. Diagnostic tests may be ordered to assess the condition further. The surgical approach may involve the removal of excess tissue and fat through surgery, liposuction, or a combination of both techniques. Dr. Iorio carefully sculpts the chest area, ensuring natural-looking results while addressing excess skin or repositioning the nipple if necessary. Temporary drainage tubes may be inserted to aid in fluid removal, and post-operative care includes pain management and monitoring of healing progress through follow-up appointments.
