Men who have excess skin, tissue or fat in the chest area can face both physical and emotional discomfort due to this condition, also known as gynecomastia. For some men, even a great, healthy diet and a regular exercise program won’t reduce over-developed or enlarged breast tissue, which can be caused by hormonal issues, genetics or certain drugs and medications.

To address the special needs of male cosmetic surgery patients, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery of Acadiana offers customized care when it comes to male breast reduction. Drs.
