Male Breast Reduction Surgeon in Santa Monica

As a man who has himself been frustrated with shirts clinging to his own chest, Dr. Teitelbaum will be able to relate to what you tell him about how gynecomastia bothers you.

The development of gynecomastia, also called "man-boobs," is more common than you may think. It's important to remember that there are always options, and Dr. Teitelbaum will discuss yours with you. Like tailoring a fine suit, male breast reduction surgery is about creating a more handsome, sculpted chest.

Since there are two main types of tissue involved in gynecomastia, some of which does not respond well to liposuction, it should be no surprise that multiple techniques are often used in tandem to accomplish the goal. Fatty tissue can be liposuctioned away, whereas the tougher, fibrous tissue often associated with gynecomastia must be cut away. Dr. Teitelbaum will help you become familiar with the pros and cons, as well as how your unique physique will affect your male breast reduction surgery.
