San Diego Gynecomastia - Male Breast Reduction

San Diego's leading lipo office specializes in male breast reduction treatment. Especially since we live near the beautiful beaches, men want to look their fittest and their best.  But a male hormonal condition called Gynecomastia can lead to the accumulation of fat behind the nipples that gives the enlarged appearance of breasts.  Now there's help for active men who despite regular diet and exercise, cannot rid themselves of this stubborn and embarrassing, rarely-talked-about condition. 

Male chest liposuction is one the most popular cosmetic procedures for men. Pacific Liposculpture's state-of-the-art liposuction procedure enables men to now get the chiseled chest and pecks they have always desired.  Pacific Lipo uses the liposculpture technique to safely and permanently remove these fat cells, reducing the size of the breast and improving the shape.

Occasionally, for more severe cases, liposculpture is combined with excision of the breast gland for the treatment of Gynecomastia; however, most of our clients are extremely happy with their outcome without having the more invasive excision procedure of the breast gland.

The male chest liposuction procedure takes about 60-90 minutes to complete. With this advanced technique, patients are able to remain awake during the procedure and drive themselves home afterwards.  Little to no downtime is required and most patients return to work just a few days after procedure. 

For more information about the liposculpture procedure for the male chest, schedule a consultation with liposculpture specialist Rod Davis, PA-C, at Pacific Lipo.  Consultations are free and allow for your to learn more about the liposculpture procedure and if it is right for you.

Laser Lipo - Is It Right For You?

Choosing the right technique that is best for you

In our increasingly beauty obsessed society, more and more of us seek out cosmetic procedure to improve our flaws.  Of these cosmetic procedures, one of the most popular is Laser Liposuction (also known as Laser Lipo, Smart Lipo, Lunchtime Lipo, or Vaser Laser).  

Laser liposuction involves the use of a laser to "melt away" fatty deposits and then tightens the surrounding skin.  This technique was first discovered in Europe and has recently become FDA approved for use in the U.S.  Laser liposuction has been used over the past 10 years in South America, Europe, and Asia.  The procedure is usually done in an office setting and does not require the use of general anesthetic.  A very small cannula, or tube, approximately 1.0 to 2.0 mm in diameter containing a laser fiber is inserted into the skin.  The cannula is moved back and forth delivering the laser's energy to the fat cells causing them to rupture and easily drain away.  The fluid released from the fat cells is removed by the body's natural waste system.  The laser also causes small blood vessels to coagulate immediately on contact, thus resulting in less bleeding and bruising.  

Some liposuctionists report that one of the advantages of laser liposuction is the fact that the probability of scarring, muscle damage, or pain tends to be smaller than more traditional liposuction methods.  As a result, the patient is usually able to return to work within 48 hours.  One of the disadvantages of laser liposuction is that it may only be useful on a limited variety of body areas.  These body parts include the neck, face, and arms.  Some patients do not report a dramatic enough difference in their shapes or skin tightening following their procedure.  Laser liposuction is used in other areas such as the abdomen, thighs, back areas, or love handles.  This may be due to today's lasers not being quite aggressive enough in creating a significant change in the thickness of the fat deposits for most body types.  There is also some doubt among liposuction specialists as to exactly how effective laser lipo is when it comes to skin tightening.  That being said, laser liposuction can be an effective procedure for a small portion of liposuction candidates. 

Pricing of this procedure varies a great deal depending on how much fat you want remove, which body parts are being treated, or which office you seek treatment in.  Patients who are interested in this procedure should seek treatment in a facility that specializes in liposculpture.  It is much more that their results will be better compared to other less experienced offices and the pricing is often times much more affordable.  When selecting a liposuction procedure for pricing, contact a liposuction specialist to find out what this procedure can do for their particular area.

Pacific Lipo Patient Talks About Her Experience on Yelp

I just had my procedure yesterday on my arms, but I'm already so happy with the whole experience, and even the early results, even though I'm just one day out. I noticed results immediately, and even with swelling, they look so much smaller than they were. I've always felt like my arms didn't match my body, especially after three kids. Even when I was around 15 years old and weighed like 112 (I'm 5'6" 1/2), they always just seemed bigger. 

I'm a huge researcher. I spent countless hours on Google, Realself, and Yelp pouring over pics and reviews, and Rod Davis just seemed like an obvious choice. The pictures of his work, as well as the testimonials from his patients, sold me. The best part is, when I got there and met him, everything they had written about him and his staff was true. 

The procedure was painless. The numbing part was definitely the hardest part of the whole procedure, but even it wasn't that bad. Totally bearable. And, I drove myself right back to Orange County as soon as it was over. I'm a stay at home mom, but if I did work, I would have had no problem returning to work today, and I guarantee that no one would have noticed anything.

Rod called to check up on me when I got home yesterday, and again today, to give me things to look for, ask if I had any questions, etc. He's amazing. He really cares about his patients, and takes great pride in his work. 

I liked the whole experience so much, that I'm going back for more work on my abdominal area soon.

I'll update this review as I finish healing.

Thank you Pacific Lipo. I wish I had found you sooner!

Inner Thigh Lipo

When stubborn fat accumulates between the thighs, this can lead to uncomfortable rubbing and chafing. It can also be a problem on the outer thighs or "saddlebags", making it difficult for the individual to find clothing that they fit comfortably into. The patient in this set of photos treated her inner thighs with liposculpture. There is a noticeable improvement in her shape and skin just 4 days and 4 weeks after her procedure.
