Gynecomastia is the benign enlargement of breast tissue in males. While breast enlargement can be temporary in newborns and teenagers, gynecomastia may arise as an abnormal condition associated with a disease such as Klinefelter syndrome, metabolic disorders, a side-effect of medication, or as a result of the natural decrease of testosterone production in older males.
In approximately 25% of cases, the cause of gynecomastia is unknown. Treatment options for gynecomastia include lifestyle changes, medication adjustments, or surgery to remove excess breast tissue. Dr. Nazarian may collaborate with other specialists to diagnose any underlying medical causes of breast enlargement before recommending surgical treatment. Men may consider Gynecomastia Surgery when gynecomastia causes physical discomfort, emotional distress, or self-consciousness.
Gynecomastia surgery, or male breast reduction surgery, is the surgical correction of overdeveloped or enlarged breasts in men, a condition called gynecomastia. Overdeveloped or enlarged breasts in men is common in men of any age. It can be the result of hormonal changes, heredity conditions, disease, or the use of certain drugs. Gynecomastia can cause emotional discomfort and impair self-confidence in some men. Some men even avoid certain physical activities and physical intimacy out of embarrassment and to hide the condition.
For severe cases of gynecomastia, surgical treatment may be taken into consideration. This procedure is most effective when done within the first two years after the start of male breast enlargement.
Gynecomastia surgery is generally called male breast reduction. The two types of male breast reduction are surgical mastectomy and liposuction-assisted mastectomy. If an overgrowth of the breast gland is found, a partial gland removal must be done. At Nazarian Plastic Surgery, we make a small incision around the bottom half of the areola, do a partial removal of the breast gland or breast bud, and use laser liposuction to remove enough fat and glandular tissue to create a normal male breast or chest appearance.
When considering gynecomastia surgery Los Angeles patients that visit us can benefit from an effective solution to address excess breast gland tissue caused by hormonal imbalances, certain medications, obesity, or other factors. In many cases, gynecomastia persists even with weight loss, exercise, or hormonal treatments, leaving surgical intervention as the most reliable solution for restoring a flatter, firmer chest contour.
At our practice in Los Angeles gynecomastia surgery provides men with an effective solution to address the appearance and emotional impact of gynecomastia:
This procedure is a good option if you have a healthy body and normal weight, realistic expectations, breast development that has stopped growing, and a feeling of uneasiness due to having unusually large breasts. The best candidates for gynecomastia surgery must be healthy and without a life-threatening illness or medical conditions that can impair healing. Non-smokers and non-drug users with a positive outlook who wish to improve the physical symptoms of gynecomastia typically have the best results following the procedure.

Initially, after gynecomastia surgery, patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with oral medication. A compression garment worn for several weeks helps minimize swelling while the chest contours reshape. Most men feel ready to return to sedentary work within a week, though strenuous exercise and heavy lifting must be avoided for at least three to four weeks. Dr. Nazarian will provide detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth, rapid recovery process.
Many patients see an immediate improvement in their chest contour right after surgery. However, it can take several months for all residual swelling to subside and the final sculpted results to refine. By three months post-op, gynecomastia surgery patients can proudly enjoy their newly chiseled and streamlined masculine chest appearance — often looking and feeling better than ever with a boost in confidence and comfort.
