Male Breast Reduction by Dr Grossman in NY US

Male
Breast Reduction

At Dr. Leonard Grossman’s state-of-the-art facility in New York City, we specialize in providing comprehensive male breast reduction services. Dr. Leonard Grossman, a world-renowned plastic surgeon with over 25 years of experience, offers advanced solutions for men suffering from gynecomastia, a condition characterized by excessive breast tissue. This condition, affecting nearly 30% of men to varying degrees, can be a source of significant distress and embarrassment. Our clinic is dedicated to delivering minimally invasive procedures with minimal or no scarring, ensuring natural and aesthetically pleasing results. With a focus on patient-centric care, Dr. Leonard Grossman employs cutting-edge techniques to help men achieve a more contoured and masculine chest.

The male breast reduction procedure at our clinic is designed to address gynecomastia effectively and efficiently. Gynecomastia, often resulting from hormonal imbalances, genetics, or certain medications, causes the development of excess breast tissue in men, resembling female breasts. Dr. Leonard Grossman combines Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) and Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction (UAL) to reduce this unwanted tissue. The excess tissue is meticulously removed through a tiny incision in the belly button, restoring proper proportions to the chest area. Most patients return to their regular activities the next day after receiving this minimally invasive approach, which results in little scarring and a speedy recovery.

The techniques used by Dr. Leonard Grossman are based on years of experience and a commitment to patient safety. Depending on the patient’s needs and preferences, the procedure can be administered under local anesthesia, Pro-Nox (laughing gas), or twilight anesthesia. Typical post-operative discomfort can be alleviated with over-the-counter pain relievers like Tylenol or Motrin. No pressure garments are required, and patients can resume gym activities within three days and swim at the beach in about a week. The advantages of male breast reduction include a more contoured and masculine chest, increased self-confidence, and the elimination of the physical and emotional discomfort associated with gynecomastia. Dr. Grossman’s expertise ensures natural-looking results and a smooth recovery, making this procedure an excellent choice for men seeking to improve their appearance and quality of life.

The
Ideal Candidate

Gynecomastia sufferers who experience discomfort or embarrassment as a result of excess breast tissue are excellent candidates for male breast reduction. Although weight loss and other conservative measures may be effective, hormonal imbalances, genetics, or medications can still cause this condition to persist. It is essential for candidates to be healthy, maintain a healthy weight, and set realistic objectives for the program. Non-smokers or those willing to quit before surgery are preferred, as smoking can impair recovery and affect the results.

The success of the male breast reduction procedure hinges on several factors, including the surgeon’s expertise and the patient’s adherence to post-operative care. At Dr. Leonard Grossman’s clinic, we emphasize a patient-centric approach, utilizing innovative techniques like Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) and Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction (UAL) to ensure minimal scarring and natural-looking results. Our team provides comprehensive care, from pre-operative assessments to post-operative support, ensuring the highest standards of safety and comfort. To achieve the best outcomes, patients must follow Dr. Grossman’s detailed care plan and avoid factors such as smoking and poor nutrition that can impair recovery. By doing so, patients can expect to regain confidence and enjoy a more contoured and masculine chest.
