SmartLipo is an excellent choice

Best liposuction for Gynecomastia?

I am having Gynecomastia which is enlarged male breast and excessive fat tissue. I had this problem from my early 20’s. Now I am seriously thinking to remove this excess fat from my body.  If there is any one out there had this surgery or used VASER LIPO procedure, can you help me out to find honest and reasonable doctor/ s rather than treating you as credit card machine and not delivering the service correctly as they indicates at the beginning. I read many articles about this system. Most of the people indicated that surgery itself was not too painful which I am ready for the recovery time. Your feedback/ s and help greatly appreciated.

SmartLipo is an excellent choice for male gynecomastia. The new SmartLipo MPX is even better with more power and more ability to melt and remove the tough fat that causes gynecomastia.

A: Liposuction alone usually isn't enough

Liposuction alone (whether it be SmartLipo, VASER, or PAL) is usually not adequate alone to treat true gynecomastia (meaning there is some glandular breast tissue). This tissue is too dense to be treated with any form of liposuction - I perform a fair amount of this type of surgery, and in 90% of case, I have to directly excise the tissue. Yes the lipo helps contouring and debulking some of the chest, but it's best done in conjunction with excision. I have performed VASER, UAL, PAL, traditional lipo on these cases, and still glandular tissue removal is needed.

Gynecomastia can be reduced or treated using liposuction techniques, including laser assisted and ultrasound assisted liposuction. In most cases, ultrasound assisted liposuction works well on gynecomastia as it removes excess tissue as well as tightens the overlying skin envelope.
