Male Gynecomastia Before & After Case 40

This is a 33-year old male who came to the office of Dr. Renee Burke looking to reduce the size of his chest. For some time, the appearance of his chest had bothered him; he avoided pools, and had a persistent feeling of tenderness in his chest. This not only affected his physical health, but also left him with feelings of embarrassment and lacking self-confidence. He arrived to his consultation hopeful to find a solution, and in his consultation found not only the solution, but the reason for this increase in size to his breasts. This patient presented with what is known as gynecomastia, a condition that causes the breasts of a male to swell due to a hormonal imbalance. This, like for him, can contribute to a lack in self-confidence, and for this reason Dr. Burke spent time carefully explaining to the patient that this could be corrected completely by performing Smart Liposuction to the chest. One of the patient’s biggest concerns was noticeable scarring post-surgically, but Dr. Burke and our medical staff reassured him that the scars would be small and inconspicuous. Thrilled and eager to move forward, the patient booked his surgery shortly after his consultation. Knowing that he would soon be able to leave the feelings of embarrassment in the past, he arrived on surgery day in high spirits and confident. At his one-week post-operative appointment he already felt great and denied any bruising or pain, and is very happy that he had this procedure done.
