New York City Gynecomastia

Men who have the appearance of "female-like breasts," which is caused by the overdevelopment of breast tissue, may choose to undergo surgical correction known as male breast reduction ("gynecomastia surgery"). This surgery is often performed by New York City gynecomastia surgeon George Beraka, M.D., F.A.C.S.; he attracts men from the Manhattan, Westchester County, and New York areas for male breast reduction surgery.

If you are interested in gynecomastia treatment, Dr. Beraka can help you gain a masculine contour by removing the fat and breast tissue from your chest.

Our Manhattan gynecomastia professional, Dr. Beraka, will individualize the male breast reduction procedure for your individual anatomy.

Depending on your personalized surgery plan, Dr. Beraka may use liposuction ("lipoplasty") to remove excess fat and contour the breast region. Using special small cannulas, Dr. Beraka performs tumescent liposuction or ultrasound-assisted liposuction, and may also surgically remove breast tissue under the nipple through a tiny incision; this is to make sure all redundant tissue is removed. Typically, gynecomastia surgery leaves a tiny scar inside the nipple, which will fade over time. When performing this surgery, Dr. Beraka's goal is to create a completely normal masculine chest contour.
