Male Breast Reduction with Gynecomastia Treatment
Men suffering from gynecomastia may have tried many different exercise regimens and diets to reduce their breast size. However, sometimes the only solution is gynecomastia surgery in Las Vegas, NV to get the fit and slim chest many men work so hard to achieve.
What Is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia occurs in men for a few reasons, including a hormone imbalance. The most common reason for gynecomastia in Las Vegas, NV is often attributed to the unusually high amounts of estrogen accompanied by low amounts of testosterone. Increased swelling and tender male breasts result from this imbalance of testosterone and estrogen.
