Charlotte Gynecomastia Surgery

Gynecomastia—the presence of excess and unwanted tissue on the chest—is a condition that impacts many men, causing discomfort and embarrassment. This condition, also called man boobs, has many causes, including heredity and hormones. It can affect men at any phase of life, although gynecomastia is most likely to occur at puberty and later in life. Contrary to what many people might think, gynecomastia is not related to obesity, although it is possible to suffer from both. Fortunately for men looking to undergo Gynecomastia Surgery Charlotte plastic surgeon, Dr. Adam C. Augenstein, offers a simple male breast reduction procedure to provide relief.

Because each gynecomastia procedure is customized to the patient’s needs, the time for recovery may differ from patient to patient. Following the procedure, patients should have a friend or family member present to drive them home. We provide a prescription for any necessary pain medications, although pain is usually minimal. On average, patients take a few days off work or arrange to work from home following a gynecomastia procedure. We will provide a thorough list of aftercare instructions and answer any questions both before and after the procedure.
