Gynecomastia

(Male Breast Reduction)

What causes Gynecomastia?

Most often gynecomastia is caused by changes in hormones at puberty or as part of the natural aging process. In rare cases, prescription and over-the-counter medicines, illegal drugs, tumors, or disease causes gynecomastia.

How to get rid of Gynecomastia?

In many cases, gynecomastia can be treated by liposuction alone, particularly if the tissue to be removed is mostly fat. If the main source of breast enlargement is the result of glandular tissue, the procedure is to remove the tissue through a small incision either on the edge of the pigmented skin surrounding the nipple.

There are many know causes for gynecomastia. Regardless of the physical severity of the condition, the psychological discomfort is often tenfold. Fortunately, gynecomastia can be improved with surgery.
