Affecting a staggering 65% of men, ranging from pre-teens to seniors, Dr. Joseph T. Cruise has developed the Cruise Gynecomastia Classification System to comprehensively target and permanently treat Gynecomastia- a stubborn condition that cannot be treated with diet or exercise.
Shedding light on a common yet rarely spoken about condition, Dr. Cruise, Newport Beach gynecomastia surgeon, has developed a comprehensive gynecomastia classification system to diagnose and effectively treat gynecomastia (excess male breast tissue) at every stage.
Beyond categorizing the aesthetic characteristics into six distinctive types, the Cruise Gynecomastia Classification System also outlines the emotional, psychological, and social effects the condition can have on patients.
This system serves as an educational tool for parents and spouses as well, helping them understand how to best support a child or significant other who is struggling with the challenges of gynecomastia.
On the surface, gynecomastia appears to be a mere aesthetic concern. However, the painful emotional and psychological effects that impact the way men of all ages experience life are the fuel behind Dr. Cruise’s desire to provide education and permanent treatment to free patients from the chains of gynecomastia.
Utilizing the latest advancements in cosmetic surgery combined with extensive training, Dr. Cruise has become a leader within the industry for his precise and effective treatment results.
By bringing awareness to this condition and working to create a comfortable, judgment-free environment for men of all ages to talk about their condition, Dr. Cruise hopes to lessen the human cost and societal impact of gynecomastia.
The procedure, which addresses more than just the outward appearance, also stops the shame and guilt that eat away at self-confidence and self-worth, allowing healing to take place mentally, emotionally, and physically post-procedure.
For many men, their gynecomastia procedures provide a new lease on life—allowing them to embrace a newfound sense of confidence that has a ripple effect into every area of their life.

Affecting a staggering portion of the male population—including children, teenagers, and adults—the range of triggers that cause gynecomastia to develop is vast.
Dr. Cruise’s comprehensive understanding of the effects gynecomastia has on both the body and overall well-being allows him to create a comfortable, secure process for each patient’s treatment.
While traditional plastic surgery solutions often fail to provide predictable or lasting results, Dr. Cruise has developed a highly effective surgical protocol for permanently addressing gynecomastia. His approach goes beyond outdated methods that left patients self-conscious due to incomplete removal, divoting, puffy nipples, or complicated healing.
The innovative treatment offered at Cruise Plastic Surgery is backed by consistently successful outcomes and a patient-centered philosophy. Unlike past therapies, this advanced protocol is designed to restore not just physical appearance, but self-esteem and quality of life.
The creation of the Gynecomastia Classification System further cements Dr. Cruise’s role as a leader in male breast reduction surgery, offering a structured and effective framework for diagnosing and treating all severities of this condition.
Dr. Cruise developed a proprietary gynecomastia classification system which outlines the various types of the condition along with accompanying emotional and physiological effects, while detailing optimal treatment plans for each.
This evolutionary system has allowed him to progressively modify his techniques and achieve concise results for each patient. Combining individually tailored surgery protocol with convenience and accessibility was essential in bringing this treatment to the forefront for patients.
Expertly trained staff plus focused, pre- and post-procedure protocols have allowed for the flexibility needed for many patients and their lifestyle demands.
While traditional methods require general anesthesia, blood work, and significant downtime, Cruise Plastic Surgery performs the vast majority of gynecomastia procedures under local anesthesia with oral sedation—no I.V.’s, no blood work, no general anesthesia needed.
Dr. Cruise grew up in the Midwest city of St. Clair Shores, Michigan. Graduating with honors and as Valedictorian from Lakeview High School, his goal was to become a Plastic Surgeon.
Later, he graduated Magna Cum Laude from Wayne State University in Michigan and then moved on to graduate in the upper class of his medical school, also at Wayne State University. He then began his extensive training in General Surgery, Hand Surgery, Microvascular Surgery, as well as Plastic Surgery.
Cosmetic surgery is Dr. Cruise’s primary focus, but he also dedicated considerable time as a burn specialist at the Grossman Burn Center at Western Medical Hospital, reconstructing disfigured burn victims.
Restoring human form to faces devastated by burns has given him experience that could not be obtained elsewhere, as well as an appreciation for all the subtleties that make a human face and body what they are.
