First, check out the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. Look for a board certified plastic surgeon in your city or nearby. Then, if possible, try to find a surgeon who has demonstrated considerable interest and experience in treatment of gynecomastia, which is a type of mini specialty within plastic surgery. Look at their websites and see if there are a fair number of before and after gynecomastia photos. Consider traveling to consult with one or more of the experts who post frequently on this forum.
