This patient is a 33-year-old male who presented to my practice for evaluation of gynecomastia. This patient had a fairly severe excess of tissue in the chest area, which caused him embarrassment and made it difficult to wear certain types of shirts. He wished to have a more masculine chest appearance.

On examination, I felt that this patient would need both chest liposuction and direct removal of glandular tissue through the areolas. Additionally, due to significant excess skin, I felt he would need skin removal to tighten the chest. To minimize scarring, I recommended tightening around the areolas (circumareolar mastopexy).

In surgery, I used power-assisted liposuction to remove approximately 500cc from each chest. Additionally, I removed approximately 25 grams of glandular tissue from each side. Finally, I removed a significant amount of excess skin and tightened the skin around the areolas.

After surgery, this patient healed very well and experienced a significant boost in his self-confidence. He was very pleased with the new, masculine contour of his chest.
