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.

Dr. Sisco is the most intelligent, thoughtful, competent doctor I have ever had the privilege of being a patient of. He did an absolutely flawless reconstruction surgery after my double mastectomy, reconstructing from my stomach fat. His office is responsive and quick. His approach is quick, to the point, non alarmist. Thank you for everything - 10/5 stars
Shevy Pressburger
Dr. Sisco is an amazing doctor! I came to him feeling there was no hope for further reconstruction. To my amazement he assured me that I was a candidate and would have a successful outcome. To this day I can’t believe how fantastic I look! Thanks to Dr. Sisco I have my confidence back and feel whole again. He is kind and compassionate and so highly skilled! If there were 10 stars I would give him 11!

I love Dr Sisco and staff. His knowledge of his craft, work ethics and personalized care is phenomenal. He has the gift of making you comfortable during a difficult process, that is for me being diagnosed with breast cancer and Dr Sisco performing my reconstructive surgery. I couldn’t thank him enough for the superior care I received pre surgery, during and after surgery. He is the BEST!
Mary Jane Ramos
I really lucked out wit Dr. Sisco. I have had breast cancer three times and he did my flap reconstruction. I tell everyone that they look better than the originals! I just had surgery again for a tumor in the opposite breast and once again excellent results. I found him to be caring with a great bedside manner. Good sense of humor too.

Dr Sisco is the best! He is professional relatable and a great surgeon.
JB Burstein
I am 55 years old and had Dr. Sisco perform my explant (implant removal) and also perform a breast lift. From day one Dr. Sisco listened, answered all of my questions, and gave me all of my options. He did not just promote whatever procedure would cost the most; some people do not get a breast lift after implant removal and he left that decision to me without any pressure. Dr. Sisco was very professional whenever I visited his office. My procedure went very well; I went home from the hospital and followed all instructions that were given. I did not have any complications and I was able to call the 24-hour help line if I had issues or questions after hours. I'm very happy with my results and have zero regrets about doing BOTH procedures. My scars are healing well and after 8 weeks I did not have any more discomfort or soreness - I'm ready to buy some fantastic new bras! If I choose to have another cosmetic procedure, I will most definitely want Dr. Sisco to perform it. THANK YOU :)
