What Is Gynecomastia?
Gynecomastia is a medical condition marked by the enlargement of breast gland tissue in males. This condition develops when hormonal balance shifts, particularly when estrogen levels rise in relation to testosterone. Gynecomastia may appear on one side or both sides of the chest and can feel soft, firm, or slightly tender. In some cases, a noticeable lump forms beneath the nipple area. The condition is commonly observed during infancy, puberty, and later adulthood due to natural hormonal changes.
Gynecomastia may cause physical discomfort as well as emotional distress, especially when chest contour appears rounded or swollen. This procedure focuses on restoring a flatter, more masculine chest shape while reducing tenderness and visible enlargement. The benefits include improved chest definition, enhanced body confidence, greater comfort during daily activities, and better clothing fit.
How It Works
Gynecomastia begins with consultation by the doctor at our affiliated hospital, where a detailed chest assessment and medical review are performed. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, depending on the extent of tissue removal. Excess gland tissue is carefully removed, and liposuction may be used to eliminate surrounding fat and improve chest contour. Downtime is usually minimal, with most daily activities resumed within a few days. Mild swelling or tightness may be experienced for 1 to 2 weeks as healing progresses. Compression garments are commonly recommended to support recovery and optimize final results.
