Gynecomastia Surgery Specialist Long Island

The Gynecomastia Center of Long Island is spearheaded by top rated board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Arnold Breitbart. Dr. Breitbart, a double board certified and double Ivy League educated plastic surgeon, is a highly experienced and sought after gynecomastia surgery (male breast reduction) specialist located in Manhasset (Nassau County). Dr. Breitbart’s surgical goal for male breast reduction is to remove the excess glandular and soft fatty breast tissue by contouring the breast to a natural aesthetic male breast appearance while minimizing any visible scars.

“After meeting Dr. Breitbart for the first time I cancelled all other plastic surgeon consultations. He is honest and sincere and delivers incredible results. He gives realistic expectations. I had male gynecomastia which delivered life-changing results. His fees were very reasonable and if I knew it was this simple I would’ve done this years ago.” ~ Google
