Mininally Invasive Gynecomastia Excision in Downers Grove, IL*

Patient is a 19 year-old male who presented to the office with complaints of male breast tissue since her was in his early teens. He did not like the feminine appearance of his chest and the round feminine areola shape. We recommended bilateral minimally invasive gynecomastia excision under local anesthesia. We used tumescent anesthesia injecting a local anesthetic solution into the chest. We used only a single 5 mm incision on the lateral aspect of the chest. He had significant amount of breast tissue removed from each side of the chest. He did very well with the procedure and returned to full activity at 4 weeks after the procedure.
