What is Male Breast Reduction Surgery?
It’s a safe, day-care procedure that removes excess gland or fat to create a masculine chest contour.
- Treats gynecomastia (true glandular tissue, not just fat)
- Performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia
- Uses advanced liposuction or excision, or both
