Male Breast Reduction Before & After Case 272

This patient sought male breast reduction in Santa Rosa due to excess fat and tissue in his chest, a trait he recognized as genetic within his family. He found the appearance of his chest affected his confidence, especially when wearing fitted shirts or swimwear. This was a longstanding concern that motivated him to address the issue through elective surgery.

Dr. Greg Chernoff performed gynecomastia surgery to remove the excess tissue from the patient's chest. The procedure involved a small incision within the natural crease below the breast. This placement was chosen intentionally so that, once healed, the incision scar blends into the normal lines and contours of the chest. The goal was to provide a flatter, more masculine chest appearance that aligns with the patient's aesthetic preferences.

Following male breast reduction in Santa Rosa, this patient reported increased comfort and confidence in both social and active settings. The post-operative results show a noticeable reduction in tissue while preserving a natural-looking chest shape. Recovery involved minor downtime, and the scar's discreet location in the breast crease helped support a restoration of normal appearance.

As a triple board-certified surgeon, Dr. Chernoff applies extensive training in body contouring and reconstructive techniques to procedures such as male breast reduction. Patients benefit from his commitment to individualized care and attention to detail. Those considering male breast reduction in Santa Rosa may find Dr. Chernoff's clinical experience and his careful approach to incisions and tissue contouring to be a valuable asset in achieving their goals.
