What is Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia is characterised by excessive breast tissue in males.

Gynecomastia is triggered by a decrease in the level of the hormone testosterone and a relative increase in estrogen/estrogen sensitivity.

Estrogen is mostly considered as an exclusively female hormone, but men also produce estrogen in small quantities. Male estrogen levels that are either too high or out of balance with testosterone levels, can cause gynecomastia.

 

 

Why consider Male Breast Reduction?

If you are a man and you are overly-self conscious and limited in your life by excess breast tissue, consider VASER®.

Some men spend quite some time puzzled by this ‘chest fat’, and unaware that there is an endocrine cause and a fast way to remove these ‘man boobs’. There is no exercise or workout that can reduce ‘man boobs’ – removal of fat cells is the only permanent solution.

VASER® is considered the best method of male breast reduction as the ultrasound technology effectively breaks down the particularly dense adipose tissue.

 

How is the Male Breast Reduction performed?

The VASER® LipoSculpture method allows Dr. Ernu de Villiers to contour and remove the fat with precision. VASER® has already transformed the lives of many men who have presented to our clinic suffering from male chest fat.

 

How long is the recovery period?

Most of our patients are "up and about", and return to work within 2-3 days.

 

How long do the results last?

VASER® LipoSculpture removes the excessive male chest fat permanently, with a small amount of fat deliberately left behind to ensure a smooth and even result.
