Gynecomastia is a condition that can arise in males of all ages at any stage of life. It is often associated with a hormonal imbalance of estrogen and testosterone levels within the body. The result of gynecomastia is the enlargement of the breast tissues, causing the breasts to be visible and feminine. The best option to remedy this condition is male breast reduction, and our board-certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Michael Suzman, is a leading surgeon in this field. A discreet consultation at Summit's Westchester County, NY office will help determine the correct treatment plan for each patient and lead to restoration of the breast's appearance. Dr. Suzman and his dedicated staff can help reduce the size and shape of the breast tissue so that patients can gain back their confidence.
Do I Qualify?
The best candidates for male breast reduction surgery have been diagnosed with gynecomastia and have tried other treatments such as diet, exercise, or medication. The most favorable candidates are those who are in good health, but need assistance getting rid of excess fat and tissue in the breasts. Patients with other medical conditions should discuss their medical history thoroughly with a surgeon prior to surgery.
Dr. Michael Suzman Reviews
Very professional, supportive and informative. He takes the time to make sure all questions are answered. The use of the Crisalix program is a great visual aid for clarifying information. Also, his staff members are engaged, competent and friendly
It was a true pleasure working with Dr Michael Suzman. I had complications from a previous surgery and needed immediate attention. He was there immediately, kind, patient, thoughtful, knowledgable and very reassuring. I am on the other side of the issue and surgery and felt incredibly lucky to have him as my dr. I would highly recommend Dr Suzman!
Dr. Suzman is very patient, kind and friendly. He is very confident in his work and I get great results. He is particularly amazing in that he answers all my questions! I have been a patient for over 5 years. I highly recommend him for the results and because he treats his patients with respect and truly listens.
Dr. Suzman and team are the best. He is very thoughtful and honest in his approach to the patient and their ideas. Excellent surgeon who makes you feel totally confident in his hands. Highly recommended.
An Unbelievable Botox Experience – Zero Bruising & Perfectly Natural Results! I've had Botox several times, but this experience was truly exceptional! I'm usually prone to bruising and always keep arnica on hand. This time, I didn't need it at all. I walked out of the office with absolutely no bruising, a first for me! The next day, I expected at least a little bruise, but there was nothing! I was amazed—not even a hint of discoloration. Dr. Suzman immediately put me at ease with his warmth and his extensive knowledge was evident as he patiently answered all my questions (even the "ridiculous" ones!). He's not only skilled but genuinely attentive, ensuring my comfort throughout the entire process. The procedure was quick and painless, remarkably smooth and precise. Most importantly, the results are beautifully natural! My lines softened without any loss of expression. I look refreshed, not frozen. What truly sets Dr. Suzman apart is his expert technique and genuine kindness. He and his amazing P.A., Helen, made me feel comfortable instantly. The complete absence of bruising speaks volumes about his skill and care. If you're seeking natural results and a smooth experience, I highly recommend Dr. Suzman. This experience has set a new standard, and I'll definitely be returning!

What to Expect
A male breast reduction surgery is an effective method of treatment for gynecomastia. Usually performed as an outpatient procedure with local anesthesia, the surgeon will use a combination of liposuction and tissue excision to decrease the size of the breasts and remove any unnecessary fat and tissue. Using liposuction, fat is removed through small incisions made on each side of the chest, along the edge of the areola, or within the armpit, depending on the best and safest technique to meet your cosmetic needs.
Surgery Considerations
Gynecomastia can affect one or both of the breasts, in different ways. In most cases, it is not a serious condition, but it can cause some physical ailments such as back pain and emotional stress from embarrassment. Male breast reduction surgery not only removes excess breast tissue, but also sculpts the chest for a more masculine look. In more severe cases of gynecomastia, patients may require a tissue excision. During a tissue excision, the surgeon is able to remove more tissue and skin than with liposuction alone.
Following male breast reduction surgery, no matter the technique used, you will experience bruising and swelling on and around the chest area for the first couple of weeks. Although you may feel sore after surgery, this will subside after a few days. Some men may experience a loss of sensation in the chest area, but this is only temporary. Each patient will experience a different healing process and should follow the surgeon’s care instructions for optimal results.
