Where are the incisions made during male breast reduction surgery?
The most effective method of removing excess male breast tissue is with the use of ultrasonic liposuction. This allows for removal of breast tissue and tightening of the overlying skin sculpting the chest into a more toned and masculine shape. The incisions are two very small incisions placed under the crease of each breast. In some patients, it is necessary to actually cut out tissue to improve the chest contour. In those situations, an incision is made around the nipple, which allows Dr. Maddali to remove excess skin, tissue, and fat. Scarring may be semi-permanent around the areola, but tends to become less visible over time.
