Is bodytite really the best treatment for gynecomastia? I am really interested in having this procedure done. I have yet to see enough before and after pictures for gynecomastia treated with bodytite. I'm also worried about getting burned. How high is the risk of getting burned, and can that be prevented 100%? Also, does it remove ALL of the the breast tissue? Please help. Thank You.

Answer: Gynecomastia If you have breast tissue , liposuction and excision of the breast tissue is the gold standard. With true gynecomastia there are no short cuts.

Answer: Treatment options for Gynecomastia Gynecomastia, or excessive breast tissue in males, is usually treated with a combination of liposuction (for the peripheral fatty tissue) and direct excision of the denser central breast tissue. For this purpose, many surgeons use one of several energy assisted liposuction methods - Bodytite utilizes radio frequency energy, Vaser lipo utilizes ultrasound energy and Smart lipo utilizes laser light. All energy assisted liposuction procedures do generate heat and can potentially cause a burn, although, the risk of a burn is quite low. Regardless of the type of liposuction your surgeon employs, direct excision of the central dense breast tissue may be necessary. Be certain that your surgeon is comfortable and proficient with direct excision of the breast tissue. Best wishes.
