How Is Male Breast Reduction Performed?
Depending on the extent of your surgery, Dr. Sisco may place you under general anesthesia or simply use a local anesthetic with sedation. In some cases, he may use only liposuction to create the desired result. More advanced cases may require excision of the mammary gland. In either case, Dr. Sisco uses small incisions, which heal with discreet scars.

Recovery After Male Breast Reduction
After your outpatient surgery is complete, you can return home to rest. Most male breast reduction patients take less than a week to recuperate at home before returning to work and light activity. You’ll need to wear a bandage, but it is well concealed beneath your clothes. Adhering to a good diet and consistent exercise is the best way to make the results of your male breast reduction permanent.

In Chicago, the cost of male breast reduction surgery depends on several different factors. These include the following:

Read TestimonialsI am very pleased to write this letter to say ‘thank you’ to you and your staff for the outstanding job you have all done. I was apprehensive at first in letting my son have a cosmetic surgical procedure done, but once we met with you, I felt completely comfortable and had no worries that he was in good hands. From our first visit, you and your staff made us feel welcome and showed a genuine concern for my son’s appearance and wellbeing — and didn’t look at him like just another patient wanting to look better. The surgery went just as you thought it would, and you were pleased with the outcome, as was I. I just can’t say enough about you and your staff. From beginning to end, it was more than a pleasure to deal with you all — and should there ever be a need in our future for any more procedures, you will be our first and only choice.
