Gynecomastia (“woman-like breasts” or “moobs”) affects approximately 40 to 60 percent of the male population, commonly causing feelings of insecurities. If you have this condition, you may feel prohibited from participating in certain activities, such as going to the beach or swimming. If traditional methods of weight loss have not helped to improve your gynecomastia, breast reduction surgery (“gynecomastia surgery”) can help to eliminate the excess breast tissue.
Miguel A. Delgado, M.D., Gynecomastia Doctor in the Bay Area
Male breast reduction is frequently performed by San Francisco gynecomastia doctor Miguel A. Delgado, M.D., F.A.C.S. at Marin Cosmetic Surgery Center. With two convenient locations in Novato and San Francisco, our breast reduction surgeon offers a comfortable, relaxed environment at his private, state-of-the-art surgery center; those seeking male breast reduction surgery can anticipate personalized care.
Male breasts are caused by the overproduction of glandular fatty tissue, which Dr. Delgado can lessen through surgical removal. This technique may also be combined with tumescent liposuction (“lipoplasty”) to remove surrounding fatty tissue, which he will suction using a small, hollow tube called a cannula. For some men, skin excision may also be required for achieving optimal results. Our gynecomastia doctor will evaluate your situation to determine which technique is the most appropriate for achieving your goals. Depending on your treatment plan, the gynecomastia cost will vary upon each patient.

With more than 20 years of experience in performing cosmetic surgery, gynecomastia surgeon Dr. Delgado is internationally known for producing satisfactory, natural-looking results.

All men with enlarged breasts are candidates but the more extreme cases of gynecomastia will require more extensive surgery and possibly skin excision. It is important for the patient to be healthy and emotionally stable. Men whose gynecomastia is exacerbated by drugs should take this into consideration prior to surgery.
