Male Breast Reduction Patient 08
Description:
This young patient had a very advanced case of gynecomastia in which his breasts were not only larger than desired, but also feminized. While many cases of gynecomastia regress with time, there was no possibility that this was going to correct itself. He had a “free nipple graft” breast reduction in which the entire breast was removed and the nipple and areolae were sewn back in place as a skin graft. He has had a dramatic transformation in his chest appearance so far. The scars will fade a bit with time and the slight hypopigmentation of the nipple graft should normalize in the next 6 months.
