Gynecomastia surgery in Frisco fully gets rid of the existing overgrown male breast tissue, restoring a flat, contoured chest.

How is Gynecomastia surgery performed?

Gynecomastia tissue removal techniques vary in detail and need to be tailored to the concerns of each patient.

Occasionally, the removal of sagging male chest skin is done after gynecomastia tissue removal to meet a patient’s goal. During an extensive consultation, you will discuss the areas of concern and your goals so an individualized plan can be formulated.
