Male Breast Reduction (Gynecomastia Liposuction and Excision)

“Women-like breasts” or male breast enlargement is estimated to affect 40 to 90 percent of teen age males and may cause men to feel very self-conscuious of their appearance. Many men affected by gynecomastia avoid situations where they are required to expose their chest. Most cases of gynecomastia spontaneously resolove before age 20. However, approximately 10% may persist through the adult years. Gynecomastia can affect one or both breasts. Gyencomastia may be due to excess glandular tissue or adipose (fatty) tissue.

Potential causes include a number of drugs including marijuana, anabolic steroids, and performance enhancing drugs. Other conditions such as obesity, tumors, liver disease and more may also cause gynecomastia.

Gynecomastia may be emotionally devastating to a teen or adult male. Many males with gynecomastia may suffer from feelings of embarrassment, humiliation, and shame. One may even suffer from significant anxiety from just taking off their shirt at the beach or pool.

If the gynecomastia is a cause of obesity, weight loss may improve the condition, but does not usually completely eliminate it.
