Gynecomastia
in Charleston County, SC

Gynecomastia surgery, or male breast reduction, is not a much-discussed topic. Most common in men between the ages of 15 and 40, gynecomastia, is the result of changing hormones which cause enlarged male breasts. This happens to many men and can only be successfully addressed through the permanent removal of the excess breast tissue. Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery has offices in Charleston and Summerville, South Carolina. We offer procedures for patients who live in the Nexton, Mt Pleasant, Daniel Island, West Ashley and the surrounding South Carolina communities.

What Is Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia is the medical term for enlarged male breasts. Though extremely common, this condition can cause embarrassing and self-esteem issues in men who experience this unwanted change. It’s no secret that larger breasts are associated with femininity and even fertility, neither of which many men want to embody in their daily lives. The cause of these enlarged male breasts is purely hormonal, which makes the condition nearly impossible to reverse with diet and exercise alone. If you are a male and are frustrated by your “man boobs,” you may need male breast reduction to correct the condition.

How Much Does a Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia) Cost in Charleston County?

The cost of your male breast reduction will vary based on your individualized treatment plan. Both the treatment plan and exact cost will be determined at your consultation with your surgeon. We will go over your payment options, which includes financing through CareCredit®. We accept cash, checks, and most major credit cards and ask that full payment be made prior to your services.

Benefits of a Male Breast Reduction

Male breast reduction is the only way to reverse enlarged male breasts permanently. Just like with women, male breast size is largely determined through genetics and hormones. In these cases, no amount of exercise and nutritional supplements can truly alleviate enlarged male breasts. Safe surgical reduction is the most effective way to alleviate the issue permanently. Not surprisingly, men who undergo male breast reduction experience benefits such as enhanced self-esteem, increased confidence, and a new sense of masculinity.

Patient Reviews

I had the first of three radio frequency treatments called Thermage. I truly love Sweetgrass. They explain everything either beforehand or as it’s being done and how it will feel. I like this face/skin treatment because of how my skin will look after the trio is complete. - Kathryn P.
