What Is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is the medical term for enlarged male breasts. This condition can create a female-like chest due to increased growing breast tissue. Many times, gynecomastia is caused by an underlying hormonal condition. This condition may also be caused by certain drugs, steroids, obesity, or genetics. Men with this issue often feel anxious and worried, most commonly in situations where the upper body and chest are shown, such as by the pool or in the gym. Dr. Chase Derrick offers surgical breast reduction for men who suffer from gynecomastia. This surgical procedure, which boasts a very high success rate, is one of the more common cosmetic procedures for men at Derrick Plastic Surgery in Plano, TX.
How Is Gynecomastia Surgery Performed?
With the patient safely under general anesthesia, liposuction is typically used to remove excess fat tissue from the chest wall. Next, any loose or wrinkled skin will be removed to produce a taut appearance, and then the nipple area and surrounding areola will be placed into a proportionate position. For most men, this method requires a small incision near the glandular tissue. After the pockets of fat and excess skin have been removed, Dr. Derrick will tighten the remaining skin.

Derrick Plastic Surgery Reviews
The environment provided brings complete calm and confidence. Dr. Chase Derrick exemplifies efficiency and proficiency in his procedures and provides a wonderful outcome, I cannot put into more words how happy and satisfied I am with my results. Probably the best decision I’ve ever made!
Excellent service thank you doctor plana for making me so beautiful I loved my surgery they have the best nurses also very kind thank you 🙏🏻
Dr. Derrick and his team were absolutely incredible! After having consultations with several other plastic surgeons in the area, I had a consultation with Dr. Derrick wanting to discuss a hernia repair and possible tummy tuck with liposuction. I was incredibly nervous as this would be first surgery ever and he answered all of my questions thoroughly and even gave his opinion on what he would do and more importantly, why. He ended up performing an extended tummy tuck, liposuction and was able to repair my 13 year old hernia. His coordinator was always available to answer any of my questions both before and after my surgery. I am now 6 weeks post-surgery and I LOVE my results. Far exceeded what I thought was possible!
Dr. Derrick and staff exceeded my expectations more than I ever imagined!!! I am unbelievably happy with my results of implant removal and lift! Katie has went above and beyond her job. From checking in on me to answering all my random questions! Dr Derrick listened to all my concerns wants and needs and made my wishes come true of my result expectations and beyond. He made me feel so comfortable about the whole process and results❤️
I first encountered Dr Derrick in a professional setting and liked how careful he was with his patients. When I discovered recently that one of my 17 year old breast implants had ruptured he came to my mind immediately. After doing a little more research and especially after the initial consultation with him and his staff I was totally comfortable moving forward with an implant exchange with him. I am obviously not nearly as young as was the first go around which is always a worry but everything turned out even better than I had hoped for. I am so so happy with my results. Even more, I really felt like Dr Derrick and his staff appreciated my choosing them and expressed that in the way they (Katie!) greeted us for appointments and and in how they continue to check on how I’m doing and are quick with responses to any questions that I may have. Highly recommend and will be a repeat customer if I ever need/want another procedure.
