Men, find out how to feel Confident with your Shirt Off

Gynecomastia is the technical term for enlarged male breasts. It can present at any age and affects nearly 50 percent of men in America at some point in their lives. Dr. B. Aviva Preminger, a plastic surgeon in NYC, wants to assure you that this common issue doesn’t have to plague your self-confidence any longer. If you are a man that is looking for ways to feel confident when you take your shirt off, you might want to consider a male breast reduction. This surgery is the most effective way to treat gynecomastia.

What is male breast reduction?

Male breast reductions are about more than just removing fat. It is actually the act of reshaping and contouring as well. Many patients who have to be treated for gynecomastia have lost weight, but continue to suffer from excess glandular or breast tissue. Liposuction alone will not remove excess glandular tissue or reshape a soft chest into a more masculine-looking one. This is why male breast reduction procedures are unique to each patient. Dr. Preminger will advise as to which options are best for you based on your specific aesthetic goals.

In some extreme cases, the excess weight of the breast can cause stretching of the areola or the nipple area. Surgery to correct the sagging areola often can be combined with male breast reduction procedures to provide the most confident results. Male breast reduction can restore your confidence and make you feel more comfortable with your body. Preminger Plastic Surgery wants you to understand that reshaping your chest could change your life, but there are other things to consider about a male breast reduction.

Recovering from a male breast reduction

As with any plastic surgery, recovery is necessary. During your consultation, Dr. Preminger will discuss in-depth what you should expect during your recovery. Usually, patients are able to return to work within one to two weeks following this outpatient surgery. Light exercise can be initiated about two weeks afterward, although you may not be able to partake in vigorous exercises for at least six weeks. Keep in mind that everyone heals at his or her own pace.
