Santa Monica Plastic Surgeon's Site Devoted to Treatment of Gynecomastia

    SANTA MONICA, CA, August 06, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Santa Monica Plastic Surgeon Steven Teitelbaum, known worldwide for his expertise in female breast surgery, now has a website devoted to the treatment of gynecomastia.

"While women frequently speak with their friends about their aesthetic concerns, men are too embarrassed to speak with one another about gynecomastia (male breast enlargement.)" And while the popular media has covered plastic surgery for women in great detail, relatively less attention has been paid to male breast enlargement.

"Men suffered in humiliation and embarrassment. And they didn't know that there was anything to do about it, until the internet," Teitelbaum explains. "Now men can anonymously research their condition and see that it is not just common, but that there is a solution to it."

While there are multiple websites that discuss gynecomastia, Dr. Teitelbaum saw that much information was lacking. "Photographs were not taken with standardized techniques, shown at regular intervals after surgery, or at the same angle. You often couldn't tell what you were looking at." So when Dr. Teitelbaum set up http://beverlyhillsgynecomastia.com, he was careful to include only photographs which were objectively taken and clearly demonstrate results. "And patients want to see more than just great results. I've included close-ups of scars, black and blue during healing, and even pictures of the tissue itself."

The site includes all information from A to Z pertinent to a man seeking treatment for gynecomastia. It is becoming an increasingly popular site, and Dr. Teitelbaum frequently receives accolades from patients with gynecomastia about how much the site has helped them to better understand their situation and what can be done about it.
