I just want to know around how much my surgery would cost around my area which is in Orange County I also want to know if I have really bad gynecomastia or just regular I'm about 200 pounds and I'm 5'8 I know I'm over weight because my doctor told me I was over weight when I was at 180 pounds I'm wondering if I lost wieght would it make a change on my breast? If I dropped about 50-60 pounds
Answer: Gynecomastia, what to do? Hi Gynecomastiasucks,Thanks for your question and photos. connector Matthews the difficult condition. It can't be treated in three ways. The three ways to treat gynecomastia are liposuction, ultrasound and direct excision. Prices vary based on what exactly you need which can only be determined by an in person consultation. Surgery can done with a half moon incision or periareolar incision or the one stitch that I used. The less scarring the better. Cost for all three types of procedures done at the same time run from 4.5-9K here in the phoenix metropolitan area. Your case is moderate and not severe. Weight loss would help but likely make the gland more prominent. Good Luck!

Answer: Cost of gynecomastia surgery Cost factors vary significantly for a number of good reasons: Prices vary greatly because the surgery itself encompasses a wide range of techniques that can be performed to different extents. My recommendation is to first find the most qualified surgeons where you want the surgery performed that are board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery you trust, then compare prices between them. See the below link on suggestions on how to find the most qualified plastic surgeon for your procedure. General Factors that influence the price of plastic surgery include: 1. Location - Will it be performed in a hospital with an overnight stay, an independent out- patient facility or a doctor’s office? Geographical location also has a significant influence. RealSelf has average charges for most areas of the USA. 2. Type of Anesthesia - local, IV sedation or General Anesthesia? Will a board certified anesthesiologist, nurse anesthetist, or an RN be used? 3. Experience and training of your surgeon. The best and longest trained is most often a plastic surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery 4. Length and Complexity of Surgery - how difficult will your surgery be and how long it will take, etc. Will other complementary procedures also be also performed during the same surgery?

Answer: Gynecomastia Correction of gynecomastia is about $4500-8500 in the So. Cal. area. You have true gynecomastia and weight loss can help but surgery is the only treatment (assuming you are not on any medication). Surgical management is a combination of liposuction and direct excision of the gland. Seek a plastic surgeon with specialty training in gynecomastia surgery, has great photos, and is an expert in male breast reduction.

Answer: Gynecomastia Thank you for your question and you are right about losing weight first. This will allow you to see just how much breast tissue you really have but I think you will ultimately need surgery to remove some of your breast tissue. I would recommend you visit a board certified plastic surgeon who can give you the proper advise and help you through the process.
