What is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is the medical term for enlarged male breasts. It is a condition that can create a female-like chest due to the increase of growing breast tissue. In many cases, gynecomastia is caused by an underlying hormonal issue. It may also be caused by certain drugs, steroids, weight gain, or it can be hereditary. Men with this issue generally feel anxious and worried, more so in situations where the upper body and chest are shown, such as by the pool or in the gym. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Ross Bunch offers cosmetic breast treatment for men who suffer from gynecomastia. This surgical procedure has a high success rate and is one of the more popular cosmetic procedures for men.

How Is Gynecomastia Treatment Performed?
During male breast reduction surgery, a form of liposuction is typically used. While under general anesthesia, liposuction removes excess fat from the chest wall. Loose or wrinkled skin is then carefully trimmed to create a tighter appearance, and the nipple is repositioned to a more natural location. Most men require an incision near the area where the glandular tissue has formed. Once the excess fat and skin are addressed, Dr. Bunch will pull and tighten the remaining skin.
What Are the Benefits of Gynecomastia Treatment?
For most men, gynecomastia, or excess breast tissue, can be annoying and embarrassing. To improve this issue, male breast reduction surgery (gynecomastia treatment) can allow life-changing results with a number of incredible perks that include:
- Removes excess fat in the chest area
- Offers a leaner, stronger appearance
- Downtime is brief
- Reshapes and contours the chest
- Makes exercise and high-impact activity more accessible
- Yields enhancements that are visible and long-lasting
- Provides a stronger, masculine look
- Increases self-esteem and confidence
- Frees you from needing to stay clothed at the pool or beach
- Defines the chest
Plastic Surgery of Tuscaloosa Reviews
This surgeon is amazing! Very skilled in what he does, very knowledgeable, and his staff is very helpful and very very professional. He was able to get my procedure covered by my medical insurance, which cut his payment down to very little! But you would think I paid $1 million based on the treatment, and the courtesy and concern that all have demonstrated during my procedure and recovery. I traveled from out of state to have this procedure and honestly, I don’t think I would’ve found a greater experience than I found at Plastic Surgery Of Tuscaloosa and Doctor Bunch! He definitely cares about what you care about!!!
Dr. Bunch has proven his self noteworthy with me. He has the ability to transform lives as I know it! I suffer from a metabolic syndrome and even with diet and exercise I would have not been able to alleviate the excessive fat and skin from my body. I lost 65 pounds and due to my apron developing a rash and no relief of cream, it was deemed medically necessary to have the excess skin and fat removed from my abdomen. Dr. Bunch made me feel comfortable and like family. He ensured he would take care of me and he did. I’m truly thankful for his gift of surgery on my body because he truly transformed and addressed the health issues I was dealing with. I hope this encourages anyone who is searching for relief to try him. You have found the right answer you have been looking for!
Dr. Bunch listens to your concerns and is nice. I’ve experienced speaking with another plastic surgeon and he was rude and made me feel worse about myself, but Dr. Bunch is very professional but also helps you realize what your concerns are and makes me feel better about myself and the results I can achieve. I would definitely refer him as your Plastic Surgeon.
