Gynecomastia. Is there anything else that can be done without liposuction? (Photo)

There are three types of surgical treatment options available that treat gynecomastia. The doctor will recommend the one that is best suited to each individual case. 

The excision technique is used on cases of #gynecomastia where excess skin and glandular breast tissue must be removed and the areola or nipple needs reduction and repositioning to create a natural looking appearance. The incision patterns are determined by the specific condition of the patient. The doctor will recommend this procedure which combines the liposuction technique and excision technique to create a natural look. Patients are given specific instructions for the recovery period. 

Men who suffer from large #areolas may notice that after breast surgery, the skin of the chest muscles will tighten, causing the areolas to tighten and diminish in size. This is a result of the removal of glandular and/or adipose tissue.

I know of no FDA approved non surgical/non invasive treatment for gynecomastia. If you are seeking non surgical options for mild gynecomastia, I think that Vanquish which uses RF energy, or UltraShape that uses ultrasound rather than Cool Sculpt would be the best option though all are off FDA usage. Surgery is the best option for the vast majority of patients with gynecomastia.#gynecomastia#malebreastreduction

It's impossible to make an accurate evaluation off one photo.  If he and your doctor  suspect gynecomastia, then the best option is generally excision of gland with liposuction.  I hope that helps.

Thank you for the picture.  There is a bit of fullness to his chest.  I could lose weight to change the contour of his chest non surgically.  May be you and your surgeon should visit with the surgeon for clarity.

Hello!It is difficult to tell for sure without doing an exam...because the fatty tissue can be treated with liposuction, but often if there is glandular tissue, it must be excised through a small incision around the edge of the areola.It might be worth getting another opinion!Good luck.
