What Is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is enlarged breast tissue in men, often called man boobs. It can be soft fat, firm gland tissue, or both, and it is far more common than many men realise.
Because true gland tissue does not shrink with diet, surgery is often the lasting answer. As a result, the chest looks flatter and firmer.
Why Does It Happen?
- Hormonal change during puberty or with age
- Firm gland tissue that resists exercise
- Weight gain adding chest fat
- Certain medicines or conditions
Treatment Options
Treatment depends on whether it is fat, gland or both. Surgery combines liposuction and gland removal for a flat result.
- Gynecomastia surgery
- Male chest contouring
- Non-surgical care for fat based cases
What to Expect
First, a consultation confirms whether it is fat, gland or both. Then, the right plan is suggested. Throughout, the goal is a flat, natural and masculine chest.
