Male volunteers who suffer from Pseudogynecomastia and seek noninvasive breast fat reduction will be enrolled into two arms to receive three biweekly UltraShape treatments.
Up to 40 adult male volunteers, who suffer from Pseudogynecomastia, and seek noninvasive breast fat reduction will be enrolled at up to three investigational sites. Eligible subject will be divided into one of the two treatment arms: Arm 1: Subjects will be treated on one side of the breast, while the opposite side will serve as control - Up to 20 subjects; Arm 2: Subjects will be treated on both sides of the breast - Up to 20 subjects. Subjects will receive 3 bi-weekly treatments (at 2-week intervals) with the UltraShape device. Subjects will return for 3 follow-up visits post last treatment (Tx.3): four weeks follow-up (4wk FU), eight weeks follow-up (8wk FU) and 12 weeks follow-up (12wk FU) for total expected study duration of 16 weeks.
