Ottawa Gynecomastia Treatment
Occasionally, men suffer from breast enlargement, a condition known as gynecomastia. This can arise spontaneously during the teenage years, or can be caused by aging, different prescription medications, alcohol, anabolic steroids, marijuana, or weight fluctuations. However, the vast majority of men with gynecomastia do not have a specific cause for the condition. Gynecomastia can cause embarrassment for men. The surgical procedure designed to reduce the size of large breasts is chosen based on the amount of excess skin, fat, and breast tissue present. Dr. Silverman will help you determine the best approach for you.
The procedure generally takes one to two hours, depending on how much breast tissue and skin needs to be removed. Many of our male breast reduction patients report that recovery is quick and easy.
