Are you bothered by over-developed male breast size?
Do you find that clothing does not fit as well as you would like because of your chest size? If you feel self-conscious about excess fat deposits or breast tissue on your upper chest, you may be a good candidate for gynecomastia surgery most often performed with BodyTite at Accent Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery.
How Does Gynecomastia Surgery Work?
Men of all ages and stages in their life can experience gynecomastia (male breasts). In many cases, the excess tissue fails to respond to diet or exercise. This can cause obvious embarrassment and insecurity. Genetics play a big role, but the condition can also arise due to obesity, steroid use, marijuana use, metabolic disorders, or certain medications.

Breast reduction for men (gynecomastia surgery) is a unique procedure where Dr. Craig surgically removes any excess breast or fatty tissue from your chest. The results are a firmer, more toned chest, and most importantly, improved confidence. In the majority of cases, Dr. Craig uses BodyTite to perform this procedure leaving minimal scarring.
Am I a Good Candidate for Gynecomastia Surgery?
You’re a good candidate for this surgery if you are a male with enlarged breasts that won’t respond to diet or exercise. Gynecomastia surgery can also be enlisted to correct asymmetrical breast size. You should be a healthy non-smoker with realistic expectations for this procedure.

How Long Does a Typical Treatment Take?*
It typically takes about 1-2 hours for Dr. Craig to sculpt and tone the male breast area. The surgery is done as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. Patients are free to go home the same day in most instances.
What Results Will I See?*
A decrease in chest size can be seen immediately following surgery. Over the course of several months, clothing will have a better fit, and your male breasts will continue to decrease in size. Most post-surgical swelling will be gone after 3-months.
“My experience with Dr. Craig was wonderful; the entire process from the moment I arrived in his office was comforting and exciting! The entire family at Accent is kind and sweet. There is absolutely nothing more that they could have done to have made my experience better. Pure perfection! The surgery center was even staffed with considerate and competent nurses. My new look is so amazing and I’m more than happy with my results. Again, pure perfection, I’m even happier than I thought I would be.”*
