In most cases, gynecomastia which develops in puberty or middle age is a medically harmless condition which is not caused by an underlying disease process. However, a small portion of men with gynecomastia do have an underlying health condition which needs to be addressed. Some medications can cause gynecomastia. Although physically harmless, gynecomastia can have a profound psychological and emotional effect. If you are unhappy with your male breasts Dr. Rai can help.

Tummy tucks for men in Britain rose 15 percent last year, representing the largest rise in demand for all plastic surgery procedures in Britain last year. Similar to trends in the UK, plastic surgery among men has become increasingly popular in America over recent years.
Like liposuction for men, tummy tucks define body contours by eliminating excess, saggy fat and tissue. A tummy tuck may be especially beneficial for men following:
Weight loss
Bariatric surgery
Intensive exercise regimen that does not eliminate isolated pockets of fat
If you have been unable to achieve a sculpted abdominal area despite your best efforts, a tummy tuck removes […]
One of the commented aspects of the most recent recession is that it has disproportionately impacted male workers, causing the New York Times and others to dub it a “Mancession.” The disproportion between male and female unemployment in 2008 and 2009 were higher than at any time since job figures began being recorded. As a result, demand for many male plastic surgery procedures saw a sharp decline. In 2008, this phenomenon was most marked, with gynecomastia treatment dropping by 16%, compared to a 12% drop in breast augmentation for women and blepharoplasty for men dropping by 11%, compared to an […]
If you are a man suffering from gynecomastia (enlarged male breasts), you may have welcomed the return of winter.

All the surveys done each year about who has had what cosmetic surgery procedure and how many procedures of each type were done annually all repeat one fact: that more men are having cosmetic surgery each year. At The Cosmetic Surgical Center, we offer many procedures for men – males can have facial work and body work done using the same general procedures as are done for women, but done a little differently for men.
Standards of beauty for a male body of course differ to some extent from female standards of beauty, and liposuction can be tailored accordingly. In itself, […]
The American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery has released its 2009 statistics which give the numbers of how many times each procedure was performed, whether it was for a male or a female, percentages for each ethnic group, type of medical facility used, and what the total 2009 numbers are for each procedure. They do this every year and have been since 1997.
Since 1997, the total number of cosmetic surgery procedures has increased 147 percent. In 2009 it dropped, but only by two percent compared to 2008.

A forehead lift (brow lift) is a procedure to raise eyebrows that have started drooping over the eyes, and to smooth forehead creases and frown lines. These corrections give the face a more alert and youthful look.
Many times, a forehead lift is done along with eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty). Eyelid surgery removes puffiness and wrinkles from the eyelids so the eyes match the rejuvenated forehead. Increasingly, men are coming for these two procedures, as cosmetic surgery continues to become better-known to the public and more acceptable.
Typically, male eyebrows are set lower on the forehead than those of women. So as age […]

Dr. Rai at the Cosmetic Surgical Center offers this increasingly popular procedure. Over-developed male breasts can occur at any age, although it happens most often over the age of 50 or so.
Gynecomastia is often related to overall weight gain, with excess fat being responsible for the […]

We provide our male cosmetic surgery patients in Dallas, Texas with a wide variety of procedures to help them turn back the clock. If you […]
