I'm a 24 yr old male. How much does it cost for Breast Reduction? Is it dangerous?

Thank you for your question.According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons the average #cost of #gynecomastia #surgery can vary widely. Surgery quotes should include the #procedure itself, operating room facilities, #anesthesia fees, surgeon’s fees, #medical tests, post-surgery garments, prescription medication and other related costs. Most #plastic #surgery offices offer convenient finance plans that allow patients to pay a low monthly payment. #Costs will also vary with geographic location. Estimated costs can be found on RealSelf.com , PlasticSurgery.org or Surgery.orgThis is a fairly simple #outpatient procedure. However, you need to make sure you choose an experienced #BoardCertified #PlasticSurgeon to perform the procedure to ensure you get the best care possible.

 Male breast reduction 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 and Canada.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 Surgery4. 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?.#maleChestReduction

Common question.  It depends on experience of the surgeon, location, and extent of surgery.  Prices in Beverly Hills range from $5,500 to $8,500.

I would estimate that this surgery costs about $5000  without insurance.  If you want insurance coverage, the doctor you see writes a letter and waits for the insurance company to approve it.  It is a safe surgery with small scars.  This condition, called gynecomastia, does not recur following surgery.

The cost off male breast reduction varies across the country and even in
the same area. Prices in South Florida are less than more expensive
cities such as Toronto, New York, or Los Angeles. We charge starting at
$3000 + MD Anesthesia related expenses for male breast reduction. Insurance
is unlikely to cover the costs of the surgery, but you should contact
your insurance company for the specifics of your plan. To
ensure the lowest possible costs and the highest possible quality,
consult with board certified plastic surgeon who owns his own nationally
accredited surgery center. Consult with 3 experienced and expert board certified plastic surgeons to understand your options and risks as they should be specific to your situation.

Dear Sami,Gynecomastia reduction for male patients is a safe and effective surgery for reduction of fullness of the chest in males.  There are a number of different techniques available, which need to be tailored to your particular anatomy.  The cost of surgery can vary from surgeon to surgeon and city to city, but here in Las Vegas, the surgery can run between $5500 to $7000 depending on the techniques needed and how extensive the problem is.It is best to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon and have a face to face evaluation to determine what the best options are for you.  Good luck.

Correction of gynecomastia is a true art and requires direct excision of the tissue in order to reduce any chance of recurrence.

Male breast reduction is a straight forward safe cosmetic surgery with small liposuctionscars or in some extreme cases, an excisional gynecomastia to get rid of excess skin.

The total fees for Gynecomastia surgery will vary based on your geographical location. At  The Sullivan Centre in Columbus, Ohio, the average fee for this type of surgery is between $5200-6200.  This is a safe and effective procedure. Best wishes!
