Gynecomastia Surgery Specialist in Los Angeles
Dr. Dadvand specializes in gynecomastia surgery in Los Angeles and has focused a major portion of his practice to the treatment of males who have gynecomastia. He recognized early on that although gynecomastia is a common issue facing many men and teens, there were not many experienced surgeons for these patients to turn to.
Furthermore, Dr. Dadvand understands not only the physical impact but also the psychological impact that gynecomastia can have on a man. Some of the common issues gynecomastia in LA can cause include:
- Low self-esteem
- Embarrassment
- Exclusion from certain activities
These are all common issues with males that have gynecomastia in Los Angeles. Dr. Dadvand uses his experience and superior technical abilities to not only help his patients look better, but also feel better about themselves.
