What Is Gynecomastia and How Does Male Breast Reduction Work?

Thank you for joining me!

Today we're going to talk about gynecomastia and mastopexy surgery.

In this episode I'll explain what gynecomastia is and how it is caused, then I will explain surgical and non-surgical ways that gynecomastia can be corrected.

We cover a lot of interesting ground in this episode, and answer many of the questions people have about gynecomastia:

What is gynecomastia? What is adolescent gynecomastia, and does it differ from gynecomastia presented in the adult male?

What people are most likely to develop gynecomastia?

What is most likely to cause gynecomastia? Can certain diets or prescriptions cause gynecomastia?

Is surgery the only solution for gynecomastia, or are there non-surgical remedies as well?

Is there a relationship between gynecomastia and male breast cancer?

Who is the best candidate for mastopexy surgery to correct gynecomastia?

What is post-surgical recovery like after mastopexy?

As a plastic surgeon with over 32 years of experience, I've addressed the questions and concerns of thousands of men and women, and I can tell you that everyone has questions when it comes to plastic surgery, and gynecomastia and mastopexy surgery is no exception. That's why I made this episode!

If you have any questions at all, please call the office or look on our website, www.DrKerner.com. I hope you enjoy this episode.
