VASER Liposuction NOT VASER Shape is the treatment for Man Boobs (Gynecomastia)
The extent of your Gynecomastia (Man Boobs, Moobies) will determine the best treatment for it. Unfortunately, the best treatment is liposuction (especially VASER liposuction) often with partial excision of the breast gland. Attempting to address this problem with a nonsurgical modality such as CASER Shape would be a waste of time and money.

Liposuction alone usually won't reduce the male breast enough for...

Male Breast Reduction
"Man Boobs" can often be made to look like the male chest with liposuction. However most men with gynecomastia (medical name for man boobs) need the liposuction as well as surgical removal of any non fatty tissue. I usually start with liposuction of the chest and upper abdomen. After the fat layer is removed, the firm glandular tissue can be felt. It is usually beneath the nipple areolar area. An incision used to remove...

Male breast
You have Gynecomastia.
Gynecomastia can be enlagement of the breast tissue only, and in that case surgical removal is needed.
Gynecomastia can be a combination of brest tissue and fat. In that case you need excision of the breast tissue and liposuction. The method of liposuction does not matter. What matters is the experience of the surgeon you choose,,
