Gynecomastia in Chicago, IL

Gynecomastia is the medical term for enlarged male breasts. This condition occurs due to abnormal growth in the breast tissue, creating a "feminine" appearance. In many cases, gynecomastia is caused by an unknown hormonal problem. This condition may also be caused by certain drugs, steroids, obesity, or family history. Men with this condition often feel frustrated and anxious, especially in situations where they're bare-chested, such as at the beach or in the locker room. If you're frustrated by gynecomastia and live in the Chicago, IL area, our providers at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery can help you regain your confidence with male breast reduction surgery. This surgery has a high success rate and has helped countless men feel more self-assured in their appearance. To discover if you are an eligible candidate for gynecomastia surgery, schedule a consultation with our plastic surgeons.

Gynecomastia surgery can be performed at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery with local or general anesthesia, depending on your needs and health history. After administering the anesthesia, we'll use liposuction to remove unwanted fat from the chest. Afterward, we'll trim away any loose or wrinkled skin. The areola and nipple will also be surgically reshaped and relocated to create a natural look. In most cases, this treatment strategy requires an incision near where the glandular tissue resides. After the pockets of fat and excess skin have been appropriately handled, your surgeon will pull and tighten the remaining skin.

Gynecomastia is very rarely a dangerous health condition, but it can be embarrassing and bothersome for men living with it. Male breast reduction surgery at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery has improved the lives of many men in Chicago, IL, and it could improve yours, too. The benefits of gynecomastia surgery include:

Over the past two years I have worked with Dr. Schierle to achieve my postpartum 'glow up' and couldn't be more thrilled with my results. Both my chin lipo and upper bleph have left me feeling refreshed, confident and more youthful. I had both procedures in office under local anesthesia and had no issues. Not only does Dr. Schierle care about the physical result of his work but he also cares deeply about how the patient feels, which I experienced first hand during my 3 and 4 month post op appointments. I highly recommend Dr. Schierle for your plastic surgery needs- he's exceptional!

I love how I look and feel—that is obvious, that is the stuff that shows to the world. But what Dr. Schierle and Monika Cieszynski did for me was really so much more than that. I have struggled with loose skin and a large belly my whole life. What they REALLY did for me was free up space in my mind. I cannot put accurately into words what this does to a person. I am free. I have so much gratitude and appreciation. My body is strong and looks great—but my mind—what it did for my mind is quite profound.
