Do you want to get rid of “woman-like breasts” or “moobs?” If the condition of gynecomastia is restricting you from participating in certain social activities, such as swimming or going to the beach, because you are afraid to take your shirt off, you may consider undergoing a breast reduction (“gynecomastia surgery”).
When searching for a gynecomastia surgeon, it is important that you choose a professional who is experienced and knowledgeable in the male breast reduction procedure. With more than 20 years of experience in cosmetic surgery, Bay Area gynecomastia surgeon Miguel A. Delgado, M.D., F.A.C.S. at Marin Cosmetic Surgery Center is qualified to perform your procedure. With two locations, in San Francisco and Novato, Dr. Delgado provides convenience for those interested in undergoing gynecomastia correction in the Bay Area.
Affecting nearly 40 to 60 percent of males, gynecomastia is overdeveloped tissue in the chest area that causes the appearance of a feminine chest contour. Our gynecomastia doctor has helped hundreds of men achieve a reduction in their breasts for a more masculine appearance.
In many cases, he will remove glandular fat tissue, as well as surrounding fat tissue, with the ultrasound assisted liposuction (“lipoplasty”) technique. Skin excision may also be necessary.
During a consultation with San Francisco gynecomastia surgeon Dr. Delgado, the two of you will discuss your goals and the associated possible risks and complications. He will also evaluate your medical history and perform a physical exam to determine if plastic surgery is right for you. You may also receive an estimated gynecomastia surgery cost, which depends on the extent of your condition.
