Expect your male breast reduction procedure to take one to three hours. Local or general anesthesia will be needed. Liposuction, excision surgery, or a combination is performed, and the size of the areolae may be changed to match the size reduction of the overall area.
A male breast reduction surgery is an effective method of treatment for gynecomastia. Usually performed as an outpatient procedure with local anesthesia, the surgeon will use a combination of liposuction and tissue excision to decrease the size of the breasts and remove any unnecessary fat and tissue.
At our practice near Atlanta, male breast reduction is performed as an outpatient procedure in our state-certified operating rooms and typically takes about an hour and a half.
We often combine different surgical techniques to match the specific cause and severity of your gynecomastia. If you have both fatty tissue and firm glandular tissue, we may use liposuction along with direct excision.
Gynecomastia surgery is a cosmetic procedure that corrects excessive breast development in men. This condition, often caused by hormonal imbalances, leads to enlarged breast tissue. During the surgery, Dr. Robert Colgrove removes excess fat and glandular tissue and, in severe cases, excess skin.
Following male breast reduction surgery, no matter the technique used, you will experience bruising and swelling on and around the chest area for the first couple of weeks.
When gynecomastia consists primarily of fatty tissue, liposuction alone may be used.
The final results of your gynecomastia surgery will become fully apparent within a few months as swelling continues to subside and your chest contour settles.
Gynecomastia Surgery generally runs $4,500–$10,000 per procedure, and each Marietta clinic sets its own price. The biggest variables are the provider's experience level and the specific device or product used. Newer technology and senior injectors price at the upper end. Pricing is quoted in US dollars (USD).

Maintenance schedules vary. Most Marietta providers recommend periodic refresh sessions every 6–12 months once optimal results are achieved.
Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.
Nationally, $4,500 to $10,000 including surgeon, anesthesia, and facility. Cases needing only liposuction sit lower. Cases combining gland excision with liposuction, which is most of them, sit in the middle. Severe cases requiring skin removal and nipple repositioning run higher. Insurance almost never covers it, since carriers classify it as cosmetic outside of rare documented pathology.
Because in true gynecomastia the fullness is glandular breast tissue, not fat. Gland is firm, sits directly behind the nipple, and responds to hormones rather than to calories. Training the pecs can even make the appearance more prominent by pushing the tissue forward. Fat responds to weight loss, and many men have a mix, which is why an examination to establish the ratio comes before any plan.
A shift in the balance between estrogen and testosterone. It is common and usually harmless during puberty, and often appears with age as testosterone declines. Specific triggers include anabolic steroids, certain medications, heavy alcohol or marijuana use, and, rarely, underlying medical conditions. A surgeon will ask about all of these, because removing the gland while the trigger continues invites recurrence of whatever tissue remains.
Usually not yet. Pubertal gynecomastia appears in a majority of adolescent boys and resolves on its own within six months to two years for most. Surgeons generally want the tissue stable for at least a year and the patient past the main hormonal swings before operating. If it persists into the late teens and is causing real distress, it becomes a legitimate surgical conversation, and it is worth having alongside a hormone evaluation.
For most cases the incision is a small curve along the lower edge of the areola, where the color change hides it well, plus a few tiny liposuction ports. These typically fade to near invisibility. Severe cases with substantial loose skin need longer incisions, and that trade is discussed up front. Scar quality on the chest is generally good with proper aftercare and sun protection.
