Male breast reduction, or gynecomastia surgery, is a transformative procedure for men in the Santa Monica and Los Angeles areas who feel self-conscious about their chest. This surgery removes excess fat and glandular tissue to create a more masculine and defined chest contour. Dr. Teitelbaum helps patients achieve a confident, natural-looking appearance through personalized male breast reduction in Los Angeles at his practice located in Santa Monica.
There are several causes of gynecomastia resulting in overdeveloped male breasts.
When the body produces too much estrogen or too little testosterone, the glandular tissue of the breast swells. Genetics, steroids and drugs are the most common causes. Gynecomastia does not discriminate by age and occurs in babies, teen boys, and older men.
