For a more masculine and firmer chest
Enlarged male breasts (Gynaecomastia) is a far more common problem than you may imagine. The medical term that comes from the Greek words for "woman-like breasts." It can cause untold embarrassment and heartache, especially if it occurs during adolescence. In extreme cases, some young adolescents grow the equivalent of a C cup. Males with this condition will go to any lengths to avoid situations in which they may have to expose their chests, such as playing sports, swimming or sunbathing, sometimes withdrawing completely from social activity.
Usually the best candidates for surgery have firm, elastic skin that will reshape to the body's new contours.
You should be aware that this procedure is not a way to lose weight.
What does male breast reduction involve ?
The procedure removes fat and or glandular tissue from the breasts, and in extreme cases removes excess skin. The surgery is usually carried out under general anaesthetic and you would normally be required to stay in hospital for one night.
All Surgery Carries Some Uncertainty and Risk
Fortunately, significant complications from Gynaecomastia correction are infrequent. Every year, many men undergo successful breast-reduction surgery, experience no major problems and are delighted with the results. Anyone considering surgery, however, should be aware of both the benefits and the risks. Your surgeon will discuss these with you during your consultation.
