The top 10 reasons NOT to have plastic surgery
Gynecomastia, Gyno, steroid breasts or bitch tits as some people call them is the enlargement of the breasts in males. The term Gynecomastia comes from the Greek root which means woman like breasts. Gyno is due to actual growth of breast tissue or fat. Gyno may affect one breast or both. Gynecomastia can develop in males at puberty, or from the use of steroids, obesity, or smoking marijuana. Some patients develop male breasts as a side affect from certain medications or hormone imbalances. Whatever the cause, whatever the condition, tissue or fat, male breasts is the source of embarrassment and physical and emotional pain for men who suffer from Gynecomastia.
Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, Dr. Corbin has been performing male breast reduction procedures for Gynecomastia for over 20 years. Gynecomastia can be removed via liposuction alone or in combination with excision. Incisions for both gyno lipo or gyno excision are inconspicuously placed along the nipple areolars and patients can quickly return to work, regular activities and the gym.
Dr. Corbin was first exposed to many cases of gynecomastia when he was a surgeon in the Military. Once the soldiers had to share living quarters and showers with several other men, they became very self conscious of the feminine appearance of their chest. Many were often the brunt of cruel jokes and comments. Luckily, the military insurance covered the costs of the surgery to remove the breast tissue or fat. Some other insurance carriers may cover the cost of this surgery depending on the severity of the gynecomastia and the insurance company.
Men are just starting to feel comfortable talking about this medical condition. Thanks to the Internet, magazines and television programs on Gynecomastia, men are educating themselves on current treatments. Weather a male patient has actual breast tissue or fat; gynecomastia surgery can correct the appearance of male breasts and improve their self esteem. The gynecomastia expert site is designed to help educate and inform men considering plastic surgery to correct gynecomastia. After gathering information to make an informed decision we encourage each person to have a personal consultation to be evaluated and to find out about the risks and benefits of the male breast reduction procedure that will give them the best result.
