Gynecomastia

Gynecomastia is when male breast tissue is enlarged on one or both sides. This enlargement may be due to hormone changes, weight gain, genetics, liver disease, medication use, or recreational drugs such as steroids and marijuana.

In the procedure, Dr. Henderson will remove the excess fatty tissue, breast tissue, and possibly skin to return the breast to a natural state.


Am I a candidate for a male breast reduction?

Good candidates for gynecomastia surgery include those who need excess breast tissue removed if steps to address hormonal status, medication use, and other causes of gynecomastia have been addressed.
