Gynecomastia (Male Breast Reduction) in New York

Flatten the Chest and Restore Masculine Definition

Gynecomastia, or enlarged male breasts, affects men of all ages and body types. This condition is often caused by hormonal imbalance, weight gain, medications, or genetics. At New York Cosmetic Skin & Laser Surgery Center, male breast reduction in New York addresses both excess glandular tissue and unwanted fat for a more masculine chest contour.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia using the tumescent liposuction technique, allowing for precision sculpting and minimal discomfort. For patients with excess fat, liposuction for men removes unwanted volume through small hidden incisions. For those with true glandular gynecomastia, Dr. Rokhsar may combine laser liposuction with surgical excision for optimal chest definition.

Each treatment is personalized based on your anatomy and aesthetic goals. The outpatient procedure typically takes one to three hours, with immediate results and a short recovery period. Many men also consider combining their male breast reduction with additional contouring for the abdomen or flanks.

Gynecomastia (Male Breast Reduction) Before and After

* Results May Vary.

How Long Does Gynecomastia (Male Breast Reduction) Last?

Results from gynecomastia surgery are visible immediately after treatment, with continued improvement as swelling subsides over several weeks. The chest becomes flatter, firmer, and more defined, creating a natural, masculine contour that complements the shoulders and abdomen.

Final results typically appear within three months as the skin tightens and tissues settle into their new position. Laser liposuction provides added collagen stimulation, helping the skin retract smoothly over the chest.

Because fat and glandular tissue are permanently removed, results are long-lasting when patients maintain a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. Most men experience a lasting boost in confidence and self-image, often describing the transformation as both physical and emotional.

Gynecomastia (Male Breast Reduction) Downtime or Side Effects

Male breast reduction performed by Dr. Cameron Rokhsar involves minimal downtime. Most patients return to work within two to three days, depending on their activity level. Local anesthesia avoids the risks of general anesthesia and allows for faster recovery.

Temporary bruising, mild swelling, or tenderness may appear but typically subside within a week. Compression garments are worn for several days to support healing and improve chest contour. Discomfort is generally mild, similar to post-exercise soreness.

All gynecomastia procedures are performed personally by Dr. Rokhsar, providing consistent, expert care and smooth recoveries. Follow-up visits monitor healing progress and outcome quality. Complications are rare due to his precise technique and experience with advanced tumescent liposuction methods.
