Though certain drugs and medical problems have been linked with male breast overdevelopment, there is no known cause in the vast majority of cases.

Gynecomastia A reconstructive surgical procedure to reduce the size of enlarged male breasts. WHAT IT DOES: Removes excess fat or breast tissue found in men. BEST CANDIDATES: Men with excess fat or breast tissue in their breasts. LENGTH: 1 to 2 hours RECOVERY: Bruising and swelling for 2 to 6 weeks. Requires wearing a special garment. BACK TO WORK: 3 to 5 weeks COSTS: Gynecomastia is a fairly common, but rarely talked about, condition of enlarged male breasts. Sometimes overdeveloped male breasts can be linked to specific drugs or medical problems. Most commonly gynecomastia is caused by excess localized fat deposits. Breast reduction surgery can help men feel better about their appearance by creating a more masculine chest contour. Before surgery you will have a complete medical checkup to rule out any curable medical cause of your enlarged breasts. Obesity, impaired liver function, excessive use of alcohol or marijuana, estrogen containing medications and anabolic steroids can all contribute to gynecomastia. If any of these conditions are detected, they must be corrected before surgery can be performed. Overweight men are encouraged to diet and exercise prior to their surgery. Your surgeon will make an incision under your breasts or around the areola (the dark skin around the nipple). Liposuction is usually the treatment of choice to remove these excess localized fat deposits. Persistent excess glandular tissue, fat and skin can be surgically removed from around the areola and from the bottom and sides of the breasts to create a new smaller breast contour if liposuction is not indicated.

Gynecomastia Gynecomastia is a medical term used to describe breast enlargement in males. The shape of the enlarged breast may take on a feminine appearance. Gynecomastia affects about half the male population, and may affect one or both breasts. If gynecomastia occurs in teenage boys the condition is physiological and usually resolves within a year but it some cases may persist and require surgery. Certain medications such as anabolic steroids used by body builders and medical problems such as liver or endocrine abnormalities may cause gynecomastia or enlargement of the male breast but in most cases there is no known cause. A mammogram helps to determine the type of tissue involved with the gynecomastia or breast enlargement and rule out a rare breast carcinoma. Plastic surgery to treat gynecomastia involves the removal of the breast tissue along with some fatty tissue through an incision that goes around a portion of the nipple-areolar complex. If gynecomastia is primarily due to fatty tissue liposuction is the preferred treatment. For about three weeks after the surgery for gynecomastia, the patient wears a compression vest to control swelling.

GYNECOMASTIA: You may be surprised that gynecomastia information is one of my most frequently visited pages, so there are a lot of men out there with the same concerns. An informative online version of my brochure is found at: www.plasticsurgery.org/surgery/gyne.htm You should also inform the office of any health problems that you have, including medications, allergies, and smoking history. If traveling from out of town, I will need to review photos from frontal, both sides, and both 45 degree oblique angles, from neck to mid abdomen, to assess suitability, and you would need to plan to spend at least 3-5 days in Richmond, for consultation, surgery, and follow-up, with possible need to return at a later date for follow-up. If you have further questions, let me know. About Sending Photos: Please send five views, and any special views that show problems if you are inquiring about revision surgery. The photos should be taken in good lighting, against a dark background, and framed from neck to waist in all views, so that overall body proportion and symmetry can be assessed. If you send digital photos, please use JPEG (.jpg) format, and simply attach them individually, rather than sending a Zip file. Polaroids or similar types are fine by mail, also, but seldom show as good detail, and may delay reply somewhat. PRE-OP QUESTIONS: ]] SURGERY DATE: ]] NAME: ]] FULL ADDRESS: Street: Apt:

Advanced Art of Cosmetic Surgery Thomas M. DeWire, Sr., MD, FACS Specializing in Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Body Contouring Gynecomastia Gynecomastia Treatment or Correction of Male Breast Over-development: Male breast over-development or Gynecomastia is generally a bilateral and symmetrical anatomical abnormality of male breast maturation. Occasionally due to endocrine hormone abnormalities, the process most often occurs with no apparent cause in adolescent or fully mature males. Obesity may be a contributing factor, but equally often the problem is simply due to undesirable pectoral fat storage and some element of glandular tissue enlargement in the male breast. Certain medications may also contribute to the development of Gynecomastia , especially drugs used for hormonal treatments of some male cancers. Gynecomastia usually does not signal the presence of any "disease", but since

55. Gynecomastia Male Breast Reduction As is the case with women, genetics, weight gain, and hormones alsoaffect the male breast. Younger patients with large breasts http://www.cosmeticsurgeonsnaples.com/gynecomastia.html

As is the case with women, genetics, weight gain, and hormones also affect the male breast. Younger patients with large breasts are often subject to ridicule, resulting in psychological trauma. They also lose self-confidence and morale for not being able to participate in sporting activities. Older patients with prostate and hormonal problems may also experience enlarged breasts. They also become self-conscious and are unable to participate in outdoors activities such as swimming, etc. Before surgery, it is absolutely necessary that a complete evaluation of the hormonal system be undertaken to rule out any tumors in the endocrine glands. It is most advisable to stop smoking, lose weight, and stop all medications containing aspirin 2-3 weeks prior to surgery. The operation is done under general anesthesia or intravenous sedation anesthesia in an outpatient clinic. Liposuction alone or with removal of glandular tissue is undertaken. Scars are small and inconspicuous.

Get Five DVDs for $.49 each. Join now. Tell me when this page is updated Gynecomastia Introduction Gynecomastia is the development of enlarged breasts in males. Not every male who has gynemycastia is in a rush to remove their breasts. I first started developing breasts at the age of 11, and I suppose because I was brought up by a single mother who was a raving feminist, nobody told me anything was wrong. I have what I call 'screwy genetics', which means that technically I am neither male or female. Thus I am producing more estrogen than testosterone. Something like that. It never bothered me much to find out. I really don't have problem with accepting my body, rather I have a problem with the way some narrow minded people react to it. Gynecomastia is a naturally occurring medical condition, so people with it should not have to feel guilty, or put up with ill treatment by society. Despite what many people say or think, I believe that if it happens through genetics or diet or any other natural process, then it is natural. If it is natural, then it falls into the wide range of what is human. Not typical, not average, but certainly not abnormal or a deformity. Development I first started to develop breasts from the age of 10 or 11 as part of having Klienfelter's Syndrome . I did not have a problem with it at all. This was mainly because
