Gynecomastia Surgery In Tampa And Brandon, FL
Restore A More Defined, Masculine Chest Contour
Excess chest tissue in men can develop due to hormonal changes, genetics, weight fluctuations, or certain medications. As a result, a fuller or uneven chest appearance may persist despite diet and exercise. Gynecomastia surgery, also known as male breast reduction, is performed to remove excess fat and glandular tissue and create a flatter, more contoured chest. At Wayne Lee MD Plastic Surgery, each procedure is carefully planned so that natural-looking, balanced results are achieved.
What Is Gynecomastia Surgery?
Gynecomastia surgery is a procedure that is performed to reduce excess breast tissue in men. This may include the removal of fat, glandular tissue, and in some cases, excess skin.
Treatment approaches may include:
- Liposuction to remove fatty tissue
- Surgical excision to remove glandular tissue
- A combination of both techniques for optimal contour
The goal is to create a firmer, flatter chest that aligns with the natural male physique.
What Causes Gynecomastia?
Several factors may contribute to the development of gynecomastia:
- Hormonal imbalances
- Weight gain or significant weight loss
- Genetics
- Certain medications or medical conditions
In many cases, the condition does not resolve on its own, even with consistent exercise.

You may be a good candidate if you:
- Have excess chest fat or glandular tissue
