Gynecomastia is the development of male breast tissue. These embarrassing male breasts (known more colloquially as “man boobs or moobs”) can develop for a wide variety of reasons, including changes to hormonal imbalances, diet, exercise routine, or genetic predisposition. Whatever the cause, gynecomastia treatment is a life-changing procedure physically, psychologically and emotionally among those men who suffer from the condition.
At Rejuvalife Vitality Institute in Beverly Hills, Dr. Andre Berger uses advanced liposuction techniques specifically deployed for gynecomastia using Vaser-assisted liposuction technology, “VASER Lipo”.
One of the best treatment options for Gynecomastia is a directed energy system known as VASER. The VASER Lipo system is a minimally invasive way to contour the body, targeting specific areas of unwanted fat. This makes it a great choice for treating gynecomastia. But how, exactly, does VaserLipo work for Gynecomastia patients?
VASER Lipo is minimally invasive and uses ultrasonic waves to break up and destroy the fat and dramatically shrink Gynecomastia breast tissue, which is then easily completely removed. Patients can be back to their daily routines within 12 hours and back to strenuous activity in only 2-3 weeks.
First, a saline solution is injected into the targeted area. This amplifies the abilities of the ultrasonic waves generated by Vaser (after all, sound travels in waves—and saline makes a great conductor). This makes fat cells easier to remove. Next, Dr. Berger will insert a series of small probes into the target area. These probes are what generate ultrasonic waves.
The ultra-high-frequency sound waves then work to shake loose fat cells in the targeted area. These “loose” fat cells are then removed with the help of a special cannula. This technique allows Dr. Berger to achieve highly contoured and controlled results. The results are life-changing and amazing.
Additionally, Dr. Berger will discuss the importance of diagnosing and treating underlying hormonal imbalances that are almost always associated with the development of gynecomastia and can provide that as part of our Anti-Aging Program for men.
Patients who receive treatment for gynecomastia can generally look forward to a speedy recovery. VASER Lipo for gynecomastia requires only a twelve hours immediate recovery period (during which you should rest). After that twelve hours, patients are encouraged to refrain from physically strenuous activity for up to three weeks but should be free to return to other normal functions (such as work).
Dr. Berger gives every patient individualized recovery instructions in order to maximize comfort and results. Once that recovery period is complete, patients should see a dramatic improvement in the slenderness of the chest. Our patients report the return of a masculine profile and the reduction of male breast tissue.
Male breast reduction and Hi-Definition procedures can lead to improvements in confidence, self-esteem, and comfort. Many patients also report that they are finally able to hit the beach sans shirt and feel absolutely no discomfort or embarrassment, as the minimally invasive VaserLipo procedure will not leave noticeable permanent scarring.
Gynecomastia is a relatively common condition, so male breast reduction is an unsurprisingly popular procedure. If you want to achieve a life-changing more masculine profile with a minimally invasive procedure and treat Gynecomastia, contact Dr. Berger at Rejuvalife Vitality Institute.
Gynecomastia made be performed by simple liposuction of the excess fatty tissue. However, in some more severe cases, tissue excision may be recommended to achieve the best results. Tissue excision allows a greater amount of glandular tissue and skin to be removed than liposuction. Patients with sagging skin or those that will need repositioning of the areola or nipple often require tissue excision surgery. In certain cases, it will be recommended that both liposuction and excision be performed to achieve optimal results.
Gynecomastia can develop for a wide variety of reasons. Obesity is another common cause. But we also see gynecomastia develop commonly in athletes who retire or who suddenly curb their exercise output. We have found that good candidates for the treatment of gynecomastia generally have some of the following characteristics:
Male breast reduction patients are typically seeking relief from the downsides of gynecomastia. Dr. Berger is an excellent resource for gynecomastia treatment —so if you’re looking to hit the beach and be able to remove your shirt without fear of embarrassment or discomfort.
