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!
Dr. Derrick did an amazing job on my procedure. He listened to my concerns and answered each question thoroughly. The staff is exceptional. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend Dr. Derrick and his staff!
This has been an amazing experience from the staff to Dr.Derrick. I felt so comfortable and at ease in my consultation with Dr. Derrick and how thorough he was in explaining the process that I locked in my appointment the same day, I didn’t want to look any further. Before and after the procedure they are very attentive and check in almost daily. If I had to do it all over again definitely choosing Dr. Derrick!!!
Dr. Derrick, Katie, Maggie, and Lola🐶 have provided an outstanding experience throughout my entire journey. From the initial consultation to pre-op discussions, the surgery itself, and all follow-up appointments, everything has been exceptional. I underwent a lower face and neck lift with fat grafting, with very little pain and a remarkably smooth recovery. While full healing takes about six months, I’m already thrilled with the results just four weeks after the surgery. During the first two weeks post-surgery, Katie was in touch almost daily, checking in on my well-being and addressing any questions or concerns I had. Dr. D is truly an artist! I would definitely recommend Dr. D and his team for any cosmetic surgeries, procedures, or injectables. You will be more than satisfied!
Dr. Derrick and his team are absolutely amazing! Starting from my consult and through my recovery, I have been treated like I was a top priority. Dr. Derrick truly cares about his patients and exceeds expectations. I am over the moon with my results. Dr. Derrick changed my life in the best way possible!
