It is simply amazing how much better men can look after liposuction of their chest. Whether overweight or of normal weight, many men carry excess fat in this area. Sometimes the fat is just proportional to their being overweight. Though patients who are overweight ideally should lose weight, it turns out that chest fat is often very difficult to lose with weight loss. But even so, reducing the fat in the chest makes clothes fit so much better and makes men look dramatically thinner so many men choose to do this procedure even when losing the weight is an option. Other chest liposuction patients are men who have lost weight whose chest remains prominent. Finally, there are men who have gynecomastia – abnormal breast development. When the tissue is hard, it has to be cut out by the surgeon. But when it is soft it is called pseudogynecomastia and that can be treated by liposuction. The fat in a man's chest is often very fibrous and tenacious, making it resistant to ideal volume removal and sculpturing by standard liposuction techniques. For these reasons Dr. Teitelbaum frequently uses ultrasonic liposuction or power assisted liposuction to help him sculpt the most ideally shaped chest.
