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.

For the majority of men, gynecomastia, or extra breast tissue, can be annoying and shameful. To target this issue, gynecomastia treatment (male breast reduction surgery) at Derrick Plastic Surgery in Plano, TX can offer life-changing outcomes with several incredible benefits that include:

Gynecomastia Reviews
I'm so glad I did it! I felt so comfortable from the moment I walked into the office. Dr. Derrick was confident in the plan and answered all of my questions. LOVE my results!
I'm SO HAPPY!!!
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!
He did such a GREAT JOB! My breasts look AMAZING!
Dr Derrick and his team were fantastic. I had round 1 of my plastics journey in January after massive weight loss his work is INCREDIBLE. My scars are thin and are healing beautifully. I always was scared of looking boxy, and I feel like he did an amazing job of following my contouring and truly making my body look amazing! Dr Derrick and his team were fantastic about following up with me and keeping in touch. I was able to text or email with any concerns and they got back with me ALWAYS within a timely manner (I eventually learned I had to tell them not to answer me if it was after 5 or on weekends if it wasn’t important because they will and they deserve time off too!) I can’t wait for round two. They truly provide what I believe to be holistic service and I’m so grateful for my choice!
