OVERVIEW PROCEDURES FAQS

What Is Gynecomastia?

Gynecomastia refers to the presence of enlarged breast tissue in men. It can affect one or both sides of the chest and may occur at different stages of life. The condition is not always related to body weight, as it involves the development of breast tissue rather than fat alone.

What Causes Enlarged Male Breasts?

Enlargement of breast tissue in men is most often linked to hormonal changes, including higher levels of oestrogen or lower levels of testosterone. It can also be influenced by ageing, some medications, medical conditions, or the use of substances such as alcohol or certain drugs.

How To Manage Gynecomastia

Regular exercise and a healthy diet can support overall body shape and may influence the appearance of the chest. However, in some cases, these measures may not reduce breast tissue if the cause is hormonal or genetic. In situations where the condition is persistent, surgical options may be discussed in consultation with a registered medical practitioner.

About Male Chest Surgery for Gynecomastia

Surgical options to reduce male breast tissue can include Vaser liposuction, excision, or a combination of techniques. These procedures are carried out by registered medical practitioners in accredited facilities.

During your Gynecomastia surgery consultation, your practitioner will review your medical history, assess your objectives, and explain the potential risks, recovery process, and alternatives. Outcomes vary between individuals, and no result can be guaranteed.

Male Chest Liposuction FAQs

Can exercise eliminate gynecomastia?
While exercise is great for overall fitness, it might not fully resolve gynecomastia, especially if it's due to hormonal issues.

It’s essential to have this procedure performed by a qualified and experienced professional who can assess your overall health and medical history and discuss all potential risks with you to ensure a well-informed decision.
