Men looking to reduce the appearance of "female-like breasts" often turn to Terry J. Dubrow, M.D., F.A.C.S. for their plastic surgery needs. By undergoing gynecomastia, Orange County and Riverside gynecomastia patients are able to achieve a more masculine, natural-looking, chest contour.

A nationally and internationally known plastic surgeon, with media appearances that include the Fox reality television show, "The Swan," Dr. Dubrow holds board certification from the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS). He has the training and experience to perform male breast reduction.

Gynecomastia Treatments

Men can gain gynecomastia due to various factors, including excess fatty tissue, hormonal imbalance, drug use, and heredity. Depending on a patient's specific situation, Dr. Dubrow will prepare a treatment plan to improve the patient's condition. One of the most common ways available to treat gynecomastia include liposuction ("lipoplasty").

After your gynecomastia surgery, patients may temporarily experience some of the following:

• Swelling
• Bruising
• Soreness
• Numbness
• Loss of sensation

Male breast reduction patients should be able to return to work in about a week, while strenuous activity may be resumed in two to three weeks; bruising will subside within three to six months. It is important to follow all post-surgical instruction in order to allow proper healing and reduce the risk of infection.
