Plastic Surgeon Hagerstown - Male Breast Reduction Surgery

A commonly sought cosmetic procedure, male breast reduction corrects a condition called Gynecomastia, a benign enlargement of male breasts caused by a number of factors. Some causes of gynecomastia include hormonal changes, heredity, disease and the use of certain drugs. This condition, which can cause enlargement of one or both breasts, is a source of self-consciousness and embarrassment for many who suffer from it.

Though Gynecomastia is a much more common condition than most men realize, it can be a great source of shame, causing many to shy away from the physical and intimate activities they enjoy. In some cases, non-surgical treatments prove effective for Gynecomastia, but for others in Maryland, plastic surgery can offer the positive change they seek and it is offered by our plastic surgeon.

At Plastic Surgery Services Dr. Garazo can remove excess skin, fat and glandular tissue from male breasts, to create the flatter, more masculine chest many men seek. Good candidates for the procedure are men of all ages who are bothered by their breast size. They are in physically good health, have a stabilized breast size and possess realistic expectations for their surgical results. For adolescents suffering from gynecomastia whose breasts may still be growing, surgical treatment is an option, though a second procedure may be needed at a later date.
