As a male, having excess breast tissue can cause feelings of low confidence and low self-esteem, which can lead to a lowered quality of life. For many of our patients with this condition, excess breast tissue may also prevent them from completing regular physical activities or lead to discomfort in wearing certain clothes.
Male breast reduction in Spokane can be life-changing for patients with excess breast tissue, which is known as Gynecomastia. This plastic surgery procedure can help male patients achieve comfort and confidence in their bodies by strategically and permanently removing unwanted breast skin and tissue. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Kai Morimoto specializes in male breast reduction and can help patients achieve a more masculine, athletic-looking chest with permanent breast reduction.
Breast reduction surgery, or reduction mammoplasty, is a permanent surgical procedure that eliminates excess and unwanted breast tissue mass. It safely and carefully removes unnecessary skin, fat, and tissue from the breasts with precision.
Breast reduction is also available for women who need it. However, male breast reduction surgery involves different surgical techniques and strategies compared to female breast reduction surgery. With male breast reduction surgery, the goal is to remove excess breast tissue and skin in such a way that your body looks and feels more masculine. This is where Dr. Kai Morimoto excels and why KM Plastic Surgery in our Spokane office is an excellent choice for your male breast reduction.
Our team will work closely with you to design the safest surgical strategy to help you achieve your ideal outcome. We will do our best to help you achieve total comfort, wellness, and satisfaction with your body and overall appearance.
Getting breast reduction surgery is a deeply personal decision that you should only consider after careful evaluation. Here are some factors you should consider when obtaining male breast reduction surgery in Spokane. Male breast reduction surgery is ideal for our patients who experience any of the following conditions:
If you experience any of these issues, schedule your appointment for male breast reduction surgery with KM Plastic Surgery.
The male breast reduction surgical strategy will be customized for each patient’s needs but generally involves Dr. Morimoto making small, careful, and precise incisions to remove excess tissue and fat from the breasts. During the procedure, you will be consciously sedated for your comfort, and you will not feel a thing.
Dr. Morimoto will try to ensure that any incisions made are carefully concealed where possible and that the resulting scarring is minimal. She and her Spokane team will also do their best to ensure that you will achieve a more masculine-looking body with the breast reduction, leading to a substantial improvement in your quality of life.
Before your male breast reduction procedure, our Spokane clinical team will provide you with a full list of directions that you should follow to ensure a smooth and pleasant recovery. If you follow these directions closely, you can reasonably expect to achieve a positive surgical outcome and recovery. Here are some general guidelines we advise to our patients:
Ensure that you arrange for a ride home from a trusted friend or family member, as you may not be able to drive immediately following your breast reduction procedure.
For the first few weeks following your Gynecomastia treatment procedure, avoid vigorous exercise or movement, including lifting your arms or working out your chest muscles. Do not work out or participate in exercise until Dr. Morimoto clears you.
Dr. Morimoto will schedule follow-up appointments with you at our office to monitor your recovery and progress. It is in your best interest to attend them.
When you have recovered from your surgery, it is critical that you care for your results and your body by engaging in a healthy lifestyle and following a healthy, balanced diet.
Avoid smoking and drinking, as they can impede the healing process and increase the chance of complications.
