Male Procedures
Gynecomastia Surgery
Restore a flatter, firmer, more masculine chest by removing excess glandular tissue and fat. One of Dr. Hua’s specialties.
Overview
Gynecomastia — colloquially “man boobs” — is a common male breast disorder in which glandular and adipose tissue is overdeveloped. It often results from hormonal imbalance and is common in newborns, adolescents, and adult men over 50. While adolescent cases sometimes resolve on their own, adult cases typically do not, even with weight loss and exercise.
Gynecomastia can cause real anxiety — affecting confidence in clothes, at the beach, in athletics, and in intimacy. Dr. Hua offers an instant, impactful surgical solution using liposuction, excision, or a combination of both techniques.

Techniques
Tailored approaches
Liposuction Technique
When stubborn fatty tissue is the primary cause (pseudogynecomastia), liposuction alone may be sufficient. Several small incisions are made and a cannula is used to loosen and remove excess fat.
Excision Technique
Used when glandular breast tissue and/or excess skin must be removed. Excision can also reduce areola size or reposition the nipple. Incision placement is determined case by case.
Combination Procedures
For a more comprehensive transformation of the torso, gynecomastia surgery can be combined with abdominoplasty, liposuction, or 3D Lipo for chest, abdomen, and flank refinement in one recovery.
