Gynecomastia Surgery for Out of Town Patients
In general, patients choose their cosmetic plastic surgeon close to home for convenience and for easier follow-up care. For the most part, there are excellent board certified plastic surgeons in all parts of the United States. However, there is an exception to this, for some specialties such as gynecomastia, finding an expert may involve travel.
Gynecomastia Specialist for Surgery
Many surgeons will perform male breast reduction, but if they are less experienced, the results may lead to necessary revision surgery. It is better to get it right the first time; it will be less expensive, time-consuming, and better results.
It is essential for men to do their homework in researching the surgeon of their choice. Be sure to review many before and after pictures, read reviews, and make sure the surgeon is board certified in plastic surgery. Go on two or three or more consultations until you feel comfortable with the surgeon and the staff.
Surgical Excision and Liposuction Needed
Gynecomastia.org is a wonderful informational website dedicated to men searching for answers to many questions they may have about their male breasts. There are gynecomastia specialists on the forums along with the members who will answer questions and share stories. Be sure you understand that “true gynecomastia” involves both surgical excision and liposuction to get the best results. Do not opt for liposuction alone unless what you have is “pseudogynecomastia.” Pseudogynecomastia means only fat is causing your male breasts.
Dr. Miguel Delgado, M.D. states that over 40% of his practice is gynecomastia revision surgery where other surgeons did not remove enough tissue, or they removed too much. Don’t let this happen to you!
