Contact UsAbout Gynecomastia
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.

I can not recommend Dr. Suzman (and his staff, specifically Helen Reyes) enough. They are top notch medical professionals who sincerely care about their patients.

Please do not hesitate to set up a consult and see what they are all about.
I was nervous before the surgery but being in Dr. Suzman’s great hands made things much easier. I will never forget the doctor who always smiled in the exam room, hospital room and surgical room…His bright aura and cheerful disposition brought me so much joy and inner and outer healing.

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.
