Cosmetic Procedures for Men
Love Handles
Men’s love handles traditionally have been difficult to treat. Tumescent liposuction works well on women but in men the fatty deposits are more dense and fibrous in nature and tumescent liposuction dose not work well. Ultrasonic liposuction is the method of choice in men. After the tumescent solution is injected, the area is first treated with an ultrasonic probe to break down the fibrous tissue. In the next step small liposuction cannulas are used to contour the region. This is all done through a few very small incisions that are well hidden.

Gynecomastia
Gynecomastia, or enlarged men breast tissue, can be very unsightly. It tends to occur in boys at about age 13, but in most it resolves by itself. In some patients, the problem will continue and become worse for no apparent reason. Gynecomastia can also be the result of certain drugs and medications, and at times manifestation of rare tumors. A work up by your doctor is required to rule out tumors. If the problem persists it can easily be treated with use of ultrasonic liposuction through small incisions. Sometimes excision may be required to remove visible or palpable masses that may also be present. Dr. Mabourakh provides ultrasonic liposuction for treatment of gynecomastia and male love handles.
