How Is Male Breast Reduction Performed?

Depending on the extent of your surgery, Dr. Sisco may place you under general anesthesia or simply use a local anesthetic with sedation. In some cases, he may use only liposuction to create the desired result. More advanced cases may require excision of the mammary gland. In either case, Dr. Sisco uses small incisions, which heal with discreet scars.

Recovery After Male Breast Reduction

After your outpatient surgery is complete, you can return home to rest. Most male breast reduction patients take less than a week to recuperate at home before returning to work and light activity. You’ll need to wear a bandage, but it is well concealed beneath your clothes. Adhering to a good diet and consistent exercise is the best way to make the results of your male breast reduction permanent.

A Reputation Built on Results

Dr Sisco was the surgeon for my recent breast reduction surgery. He was wonderful and professional as was his whole team. They helped me through the insurance approval process and then answered all my questions and concerns. I can’t speak highly enough about how caring and professional the whole team was! I was thrilled with the results and highly recommend Dr Sisco and his team!
Terri Berryman
From the moment I went in for my first surgical consultation, day of surgery-visits in the hospital and all my postop appointments, I always felt Dr. Sisco was very respectful, knowledgeable, and had a lot of patience with all the questions I had. He always made me feel like I was important and that my questions weren’t stupid questions. Some doctors look annoyed when you’re asking questions and they rush you so they could move on to the next patient. Not Dr. Sisco. I had three surgeries with him following my cancer diagnosis. With every Surgery I had new questions, Preop, and Postop. He answered all my questions with a smile. His RN, PA and all the front desk staff follow in his footsteps, being greeted with a friendly smile, answering all my messages and phone calls in a timely matter. Always within a few hours. I am very happy with this practice and my surgical results. I am one very happy patient.

Dr. Sisco performed my breast implant removal under local anesthesia. I was initially impressed by his reviews, credentials, and gallery of before and afters. When I met him in the consultation I felt very comfortable and at ease. He was honest, kind, and understanding. He made the breast implant removal procedure easy and smooth, I was shocked at how easy it ended up being. My recovery has also been smooth. I feel that Dr. Sisco tries to make things as easy and non-invasive as possible for you, while also being realistic and honest. I’m grateful to have found him.
