Self Conscious About Your Large Breasts? Consider Breast Reduction Surgery

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

Women with under-developed breasts can be self conscious. In the same manner, women with large, heavy breasts also experience the same feelings of being self conscious, and struggling with thoughts of poor self image. Over-development of a woman’s breasts can potentially be at the root cause various issues involving self-esteem, self-confidence and self image. In addition, large, heavy pendulous breasts also contribute an added difficulty for physical activity, posture, backaches and undesired attention in public. Breast Reduction Surgery can help to treat all of these issues associated with overly large breasts.

Over the course of many years, plastic surgeons have worked to perfect the short scar approach to reduce the size of the breasts, which, in turn relieves back pain, promotes better posture, and improves the shape and contour of the breasts.

Insurance plans may cover breast reduction surgery. However, denial by an insurance plan or a request by that plan for a harsh or excessive reduction prompts many patients to go outside the ordinary insurance coverage to seek help. Anyone considering the surgery procedure, should first consult with a plastic surgeon and research the procedure. This is an important step and one that should not be taken lightly.

Breast Reduction for Men – Beverly Hills

Monday, February 8th, 2010

Los Angeles breast surgery isn’t just for women seeking better proportions to their figure. While it’s true that doctors like Santa Monica plastic surgeon, Dr. Steven Teitelbaum, do provide women with a full range of breast surgery (increasing, decreasing, lifting and more), there is also breast reduction for men to be considered.

Defined as “excessive development of the breast in the male” by Mirriam-Webster Online, gynecomastia is more common than you may think. Most men will develop gynecomastia to some extent at some point in their lives. Though it frequently resolves itself, some “man-boobs” don’t go away on their own. They still need not be permanent. Just as Dr. Teitelbaum treats women dissatisfied with their breasts, men, too, can be treated for their “breasts.” Men might not normally consider themselves as likely candidates for plastic surgery, but male plastic surgery is helpful for treating more than moobs. As you see Dr. Teitelbaum, gynecomastia surgeon, there may be additional procedures from which you could benefit.
