Candidates for Male Breast Reconstruction

The best candidates for male breast reconstruction have firm, elastic skin that can be easily reshaped to the body’s contours.

Overweight men are encouraged to attempt addressing the condition first through diet and exercise before pursuing surgery.

About the Procedure

A male breast reconstruction is performed by making a subtle incision near the nipple and removing excess glandular tissue or fat by way of scalpel or liposuction. Excess skin is then removed if needed and the incision closed and wrapped.

Discomfort is expected for a few days following the procedure while some bruising and swelling may persist for a few weeks.
