Over time, the skin and tissues on our faces and bodies stretch and lose elasticity, reminding us that time affects everyone. Signs of aging adversely affect your face and body contours. For men, in particular, this often shows up on the abdomen, chest, and across the flanks and back.
Board-certified Los Angeles plastic surgeon Dr. Stephen Bresnick, with his unique background and extensive training, offers the full range of nonsurgical and surgical options for reducing fat and tightening skin, delivering a natural-looking and safe result to his male patients.
In your case, surgery may be the best option, or you may need a combination of treatments to reach your goals. A consultation with Dr. Bresnick will help you decide that, effortlessly.

Trim Your Middle Without Surgery
Not ready for surgery? Well, you should take a look at just one of the exciting non-invasive technologies proven to reduce stubborn subcutaneous fat permanently. Yes, they do require multiple treatments but they could be your first step at shedding that fat from up to nine areas without having to go under the knife.
Cryolipolysis is the method of fat freezing that CoolSculpting uses to permanently break down fat cells at temperatures low enough to kill them off without harming surrounding tissue, so that your body can naturally eliminate the dead fat cells. Our board-certified plastic surgeons will help you achieve up to a 20%-25% reduction of fat in the areas treated over a period of a few months.
Create a Masculine Chest – Reduce Breast Tissue
While it may be reassuring to know that an estimated 50% of all men in the United States experience enlarged breasts at some point during their lifetime, your challenge is that, as you age, the risk increases. As a result, breast reduction has become one of the most common goals for men pursuing cosmetic surgery in the United States. Dr. Bresnick typically performs male breast reduction as a gynecomastia repair, with a small incision on the lower areolar/nipple area. The incision heals nicely and unwanted breast tissue and fatty tissue is removed.
Tummy Tuck
Fatty tissue is found in the abdominal area of men in two regions:
- Subcutaneous fat you can pinch under your skin and measure with calipers. Both liposuction and a healthy lifestyle can shrink this type of belly fat.
- Visceral fat is found between your internal organs and behind the abdominal wall. The only way to effectively get rid of the visceral fat on your belly is by weight loss and following a healthy lifestyle.
Unfortunately, when you do successfully eliminate a large amount of either type of fat, the skin on your abdomen may be left stretched out, restricting your movements and reducing your self-esteem.
A tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) can tighten up that loosened, hanging gut in ways that are simply not possible with exercise and a rigorous diet. If you need to remove only a small amount of extra skin from the lower abdominal area, a mini tummy tuck may be all you need. Keep an open mind that it may be necessary also to reposition your belly button as required, depending on how much skin needs to be removed.
Liposuction will maximize your results by getting rid of the subcutaneous fat and is frequently performed during the same procedure as a tummy tuck.
