What is Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia is a condition characterized by the enlargement of breast tissue in males.

While it can occur at any age, it’s most common during puberty and in older age. It’s typically caused by an imbalance in the hormones estrogen and testosterone, often resulting in an excess of estrogen relative to testosterone.

This can be due to various factors such as hormonal changes during puberty, certain medications, underlying health conditions, or the use of steroids or other substances.

Gynecomastia can sometimes resolve on its own, but in some cases, medical treatment or gynecomastia surgery may be necessary to correct it.

What Our Clients Think

I had a great experience with Dr. Morees, from the consultation to post service he has always showed care in regards to my concerns and desires while maintaining a real expectation. I’m happy with his professionalism and my results. Happy to have found someone I can trust when it comes to my appearance and I’ll for sure be coming back to him and referring all my friends that are searching for a great professional to take care of them! – Murilo B.

Dr. Reuben and his staff (Leslee) are professional and caring. At 50 years old I finally decided a reduction and lift were a necessity. I researched Dr Reuben and met with him several times before scheduling the surgery. He is double board certified and very knowledgeable in his profession. He was very patient and answered every question I had in detail. He does not “sugar coat”, as I was well informed about scarring, recovery time etc. My surgery went well and I am so pleased with the results. I would definitely recommend Dr Reuben! – Angie W

I had such a great experience with Dr Moores. He explained everything thoroughly during my consultation and answered all questions I had about the operation. He continuously called me after my operation to make sure that everything was going smoothly. You can tell he truly cares about his patients, and he is amazing at what he does. I couldn’t be happier with my results! – Zach P.
