Before surgery is recommended, Dr. Snyder will perform a variety of tests and possibly prescribe medications to see if any improvement occurs. If the breast enlargement persists, surgery is an option. The surgical technique may vary based on the extent of gynecomastia and the patient’s aesthetic goals:
- Liposuction: Excess fat is suctioned out of the chest area using a cannula, resulting in a smoother contour.
- Excision: For glandular tissue removal, an incision is made around the areola or in the natural chest creases to excise excess tissue.
- Combination Technique: Liposuction and excision may be combined for optimal results, addressing both fatty and glandular components of gynecomastia.

Male Breast Reduction Step-by-Step
Before
Before surgery, patients will undergo a consultation with Dr. Snyder as a foundation for understanding the patient’s unique situation and goals. Following the consultation, patients are provided with detailed preoperative instructions to optimize surgical outcomes and the recovery process.
During
During the surgical procedure, male breast reduction is conducted under either general anesthesia or intravenous sedation, prioritizing patient comfort and safety throughout the process. The chosen technique, whether it involves liposuction, excision, or a combination of both, is executed with meticulous precision to achieve the desired chest contour, as discussed during the preoperative assessment.
Excess breast tissue and fat are carefully removed, and the chest is reshaped to restore a masculine appearance. Additionally, if deemed necessary, adjustments to the size and position of the areola may be made to ensure harmony with the newly sculpted chest contour.
After
Following the procedure, any mild discomfort can be managed through prescribed medication, and postoperative care instructions are provided to facilitate optimal healing. As swelling subsides and the healing process advances, patients begin to appreciate the enhanced contour and newfound confidence in their sculpted chest.
