How NaturaMale® Gynecomastia Surgery Works

After many years of performing gynecomastia surgery, Dr. Alizadeh has developed a specialized technique, called NaturaMale® Gynecomastia Surgery, to achieve superior results. He performs the procedure via minimal-access sites to help hide any scars in the natural contours around the areola, or nipple. The goal is for patients to feel comfortable in a tight shirt or even bare chested without showing any visible signs of surgery. Most patients begin with liposuction to remove fatty deposits in the chest area. Dr. Alizadeh uses power-assisted liposuction (PAL) for gentle, atraumatic liposuction. It uses a gentle wave of tumescent solution to break up fat cells while minimizing bruising. The fat cells are then carefully suctioned from the body.

If the patient has good skin tone and elasticity, the breast and chest tissue gradually tightens and firms on its own following liposuction. If it does not, or if there is an excess of loose or sagging breast skin, possibly causing the nipple to face downward, Dr. Alizadeh will directly excise any redundant skin. At this time he may also reduce the size of the nipple, creating the incision directly around the border of the areola so that it is inconspicuous once healed. If a patient has fibrous breast tissue, often located directly under the nipple, Dr. Alizadeh will also surgically remove it following liposuction.
