Gynecomastia Surgery
What is gynecomastia surgery?
Gynecomastia is the enlargement of breast tissue in men, caused by hormonal changes, genetics, certain medications, or weight fluctuation. Gynecomastia surgery removes excess glandular tissue and, where needed, excess fat through liposuction, to restore a flatter, more masculine chest contour.
Who is a candidate?
You may be a candidate if you have persistent breast tissue enlargement that hasn't responded to weight loss or lifestyle changes, feel self-conscious about chest appearance, or maintain a stable, healthy weight with realistic expectations. A Restore consultation evaluates your anatomy, hormonal history and whether gynecomastia surgery — rather than fat reduction alone — is appropriate for you.
Long-term results
- Flatter, more contoured chest
- Improved comfort in fitted clothing
- Restored confidence
Results are long-lasting when weight remains stable, though age-related and hormonal changes can still occur over time.

Book Consult — Lift & RestoreFrequently Asked Questions
Will there be visible scars?
Incisions are placed discreetly, most often around the areola, and scar visibility is discussed during consultation.
Can gynecomastia recur after surgery?
Once glandular tissue is removed, true recurrence is uncommon, though significant weight gain or certain medications can affect long-term results.
