Expertise

Dr. Teitelbaum has been performing plastic surgery on men since the early 1990s.  He is one of the leading gynecomastia surgeons in the United States (see beverlyhillsgynecomastia.com), and has seen a substantial number of male patients for plastic surgery.  Gynecomastia patients often ask for additional procedures to be done, contributing over the years to Dr. Teitelbaum’s broad and deep experience with male plastic surgery.

As the first plastic surgeon in Southern California to acquire an ultrasonic liposuction machine back in 1998, many men sought his expertise because this machine has some advantages in removing the dense fat deposits characteristic to men.  At that time, he was also starting to use a novel neck lift technique that is excellent for men.  With the success of both techniques, and others, Dr. Teitelbaum has seen this portion of his practice continue to grow substantially.

Dr. Teitelbaum has devoted considerable thought to the ideal placement of scars in men.  He has always followed his patients closely over time, and has learned from all the follow-up which scars fade into obscurity after surgery.

Dr. Teitelbaum is very conscious of keeping, and enhancing, the masculinity of the patient and he considers this goal to be a core component of achieving the best possible results for men.
