Gynecomastia
A More Confident, Contoured Chest
Gynecomastia Surgery in Winston-Salem, NC
Gynecomastia—a condition marked by excess breast tissue in men—can affect people of all ages. It may be caused by hormonal changes, puberty, weight fluctuations, or certain medications, and can lead to both physical discomfort and emotional stress.
If you’ve struggled with this, you’re not alone—and you do have options.
At Forsyth Plastic Surgery, our board-certified plastic surgeons perform male breast reduction surgery in Winston-Salem to remove excess tissue and sculpt a flatter, firmer, more masculine chest.
We focus on results that look natural and proportional—never overdone. The procedure is discreet, effective, and typically performed as an outpatient surgery in our accredited on-site facility.

What to Expect
Consultation: Straightforward, Private, and Honest
We begin with a private consultation to assess your chest anatomy, discuss your goals, and review your health history. If gynecomastia is confirmed, we’ll explain your treatment options, including surgical technique and recovery time.
Surgery & Recovery
Surgery is performed in our accredited on-site surgery center under general or local anesthesia. The procedure often combines liposuction with glandular tissue removal through small, discreet incisions.
- Downtime: Most patients return to non-strenuous activity within 4–7 days
- Garment: You’ll wear a compression vest to reduce swelling and support healing.
- Results: Initial changes are visible almost immediately, with final contour visible in a few weeks.

Common Questions
Is gynecomastia common?
Yes. It’s more common than most realize—affecting teens, adult men, and older patients alike.
Can exercise fix it?
Not always. If true glandular tissue is present, surgery is often the most effective solution—even for otherwise fit patients.
Will there be visible scars?
Incisions are small and placed in discreet areas, often along the edge of the areola or under the chest. Scars typically fade well over time.
Scarring is part of any surgical procedure, but we do our best to minimize visibility and place incisions in more discreet areas. For this procedure they are often along the edge of the areola or under the chest. Scars typically fade over time and can be improved with post-op care.
Will the tissue come back?
In most cases, no—especially with a stable weight and healthy lifestyle. We’ll walk you through long-term expectations.
